I like Power.
I like the lightning bolt
I like teal as a complimentary colour, B, w and blue look great together.
And the best Guernsey we've ever worn in the AFLwas the 2003 preseason jumper, and I never understood why our initial preseason jumper wasn't our main strip.

Come at me.


Edit...... mind you I would've preferred we were the Pirates and incorporated more silver ala. The Oakland Raiders from day 1, but I'm happy with the path we've taken.

I admit that I’ve never particularly liked the concept but in addition to that I don’t think it’s been executed well. So in a weird way I kinda agree with you that it could be improved, it’s just that I don’t think it’s worth improving.

This is exactly where I sit as well. The best possible execution of the Power brand is still a missed opportunity to do something which represents the Port Adelaide Football Club better.
 
Its disgusting. We won't go back to 2 logos - they will just cut out the bars and go with the monogram after 2020. And probably outline it in teal because the logo needs all our colours.
 
This reeks of one of Melbourne's logo changes, where they had 3 new logos within 8 years between 2008 and 2016.

First they went with the guernsey design as the main logo element, didn't work in a wide enough range of applications.

Then they went with a heritage evoking homer car, way too busy and looked terrible because it wasn't scalable.

They final settled on a monogram in a simple shield topped with the word Melbourne, and it's much better despite not doing the 500 things they were trying to get the previous 2 logos to do.

You should all just think yourselves lucky that our contribution to popular culture isn't the Raiders' "clap" :p

Excuse my ignorance, but is the Raiders' clap the same thing as the Iceland Viking clap thing from the European Championships last year?

If so, I'm pretty sure some members of our cheer squad already try to get this going from time to time

If not, disregard

That logo was so bad it looked more like a parody than a real logo.

It did everything you shouldn't do when designing a logo. It even had microscopic text as a texture within the shield that was readable if you scaled up the artwork.

Also a blatant Liverpool shield and scroll rip-off.

You need to check out this old thread PowerBaz


There's a link to the second act in the last post.

Yep, it's not even original. But you'd think from media here that it's suddenly some kind of unifying cultural icon ;)
 
I'll get hated on for this but even the Raiders clap is better than the "Never tear us apart" bogan ballad. It's maximum cringe.
Sadly it's gone the way of "you get what you deserve" and "we exist to win premierships", neither of which has currency any more.

The media *shakes head*
Yeah point taken :thumbsu: . I did notice the other day I ticked over 4,000 posts, but I swear no more than a handful have ever been on topic. But I do appreciate the opportunity to sh*t post in whatever thread happens to be open at the time :p
 
Received our membership reminders today in the mail.

If the design of these is any indication, our branding for 2020 is going to make us look like a Div 3 amateur side.

Cool so we will have branding to suit the way we play and are coached
 
Whipped up a couple of quick Port Adelaide ideas while waiting for the cricket to start.

I wonder if deanjrobinson will be getting any royalties?

So what did you see?

It was as reported in this thread. A shield with the PA monogram and prison bars in the lower triangular segment.

The PA font looked more like the one used here than the 'new era' one.

Why do I get the feeling this whole new logo thing is about certain people at the club stroking their massive egos (you know who I'm talking about).

No confidence they are going to get it right at all.
