rmered Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 Sydney AFL is looking for a new logo.The winner of the design contest gets highly paid - a book (signed by two ex MVP's.)Any rate, if there's some interest, I'm sure the good people at AFL Sydney would be interested in your talents. Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphabet Man Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 yeah it's a league... is it AFL Sydney or Sydney AFL? anyone know? twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 yeah it's a league... is it AFL Sydney or Sydney AFL? anyone know? It should be AFL Sydney. After all, their website address is www.aflsydney.com.au. Seriously, all the press releases call it SydneyAFL, so I'm assuming it's Sydney AFL. I saw, I came, I left.

rmered Posted November 15, 2004 Author Share Posted November 15, 2004 The AFL is the controlling body for the whole country, and the individual state leagues are then AFL NSW, AFL Tasmania, AFL Queensland etc.Sydney is the capital of New South Wales (NSW) and had it's own competition Sydney Football League. Now that the AFL has taken over management of the whole thing, it's technically, AFL Sydney, however Sydney AFL is also accepted.Any chance of us seeing the entries you posted? Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphabet Man Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 i'd say to just turn the Southern Cross around a bit- or get rid of it as it is only a minor league and is based around Sydney, the Opera House outline is cool cos it is a Sydney icon, but the Southern Cross is an Aussie icon, rather than just Sydney, also i'd round the ball at the point a tad bit twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmered Posted November 16, 2004 Author Share Posted November 16, 2004 here is the one i sent in...feel free to C&C I really like the logo, but that's a Rugby Union ball markings.The AFL won't go for it unless it looks more like You ball is pointed like a North American ball, ours is in between that and a rugby ball, which is bigger around the middle (not unlike some of their players and fans) Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmered Posted November 16, 2004 Author Share Posted November 16, 2004 I went for something very simple.I put the Opera House from the Sydney FC jumper on the top of their controlling body logo, and inserted their name.

Alphabet Man Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I'll try find logos of other Sydney sports league..... the Waratah division of the Australian Basketball Association doesn't have either, they have a Warata instead i thinkoh, new idea flots through my head.... twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 (clicky-clicky for bigger versions)I thought about using a few different logos, but went with the Harbour Bridge in the end. The Swans use the Opera House already, and I didn't want to portray the league as a glorified offshoot of the local AFL team. And while the waratah had some merit, it's more an icon of the state of NSW than Sydney itself, so bye-bye waratah too.Colours I went for were navy blue, light blue, red and white. The two blues are used by a lot of NSW teams and blend nicely with the fairly AFL-standard red, white, and blue. I was tempted to leave red out altogether but things looked a bit too dull without it (and blue footies look silly!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Africa Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I thought you were talking about the Sydney Swans. I had to scroll down to find out it was the Sydney AFL league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
