Oh that’s a really poor logo.

Wouldn’t be clear enough at all on apps or smaller devices. Wouldn’t be easily recognisable from a distance either.

Also it's just a yellow and red bear.
No resemblance to the brand.

You don't see the red, black and white? Surely a little yellow doesn't offend you too much.

It could be (and is) some random stock image No resemblance to any Norths logo.

The yellow argument has been debated at nauseam in this thread, hopefully PNG being confirmed yesterday is more reason to not bother with yellow at all.

Sadly with the lack of WA ownership of the club you are probably right.

So yellow does upset you. How did you go in the 90s when norths added white to their jersey?

I'm not that old so white had already been added by the time I started following the game.

Not for nothing they first introduced white in 1970. 1908 if collars count.

I'd just embrace whatever they come with if I was you
I've been conversing with west tigers fans for 20 years and some still bitch about too much gold or too much black or a magpie on the sleeve..
They've never really moved on and it's pretty sad.
You hopefully get the bears back in the comp so don't let a little colour , if it happens , darken your day.

i seens on den and caves facebooks page that some older bears and even west aussie leaguie fans are like this. they need to move on or get nudged off a cliff because theyre stuck in 1976 or 1996. tigers or maggpies fans stuck in 1981 are probably the same?

i like the ideas newer bears and west aussie leaguie fans have. refreshing and not necessarily stained by crap from yesteryear.

It won't, though the Tigers is a very different kettle of fish. Two clubs forming a new one trying to nod to each identity isn't the same as one being resurrected in a new location.
There are plenty of sporting clubs in WA whose identities aren't contingent on adopting state colours.

True but none of them are Sydney brands moving to be a Perth club. If it doesn't look and smell like a Perth club it's on a hiding to nothing. You think Qlnders are parochial you aint seen nothing till you meet sandgropers!

Swans changed their logo to incorporate the harbour bridge, Lions changed their colours to incorporate Qlnd maroon. The WA Bears club will need to do something to convince WA folk this isnt FIFO NS and is in fact a Perth club.

Ever seen the Perth Wildcats?

Again, Wildcats arent a club that moved from another city trying to forge a new identity. They were a new club and their brand and colours were theirs from day 1.
Yellow is an obvious addition to the NS red black and white as a statement that this is a new club that belongs to perth. Personally Id prefer if we ditched any traditional NS design and choose one colour as the predominant colour with the others as secondary. A new design for a new club with a palette of NS and WA.

Isn’t it convenient that they’re the same colours then
