Gazzzaf Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I'll keep this short as I don't have much time...PROSFull bodied Bulldog is backCB "Berries" monogram is includedVee saddle in background looks to be a sign that the classic jersey is returningCONSShould have used Berries shield shapeDog lacks the aggression of previous versions (going for a family friendly image after a decade off-field issues, no doubt)Vee in the background is overkill especially when it will be viewed on a jumper, they had an option for the butcher stripes as well, that was my preferenceFans also voted for a return to the Canterbury-Bankstown moniker, logo only contains Bulldogs. Bit of an identity crisis even though the CB monogram is thereNot a fan of the heavy use of BlackAll in all, right intention, wrong execution. Better than the old logo by lengths though.

Sodboy13 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Nothing outstanding, but it certainly beats that blind bulldog abstraction they've been using. Any idea as to whether the "CB" insignia could signal a return to the team officially labeling itself as Canterbury, instead of just "The Bulldogs"? I mean, the announcers seem to still call them that all the time, regardless of what the official name might be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 It's a tidy update of the 80s era dog - I like it. Bit disappointed they're not pushing Canterbury-Bankstown more, but oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregmond Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Canterbury have released their new logo, based on their 1980's logo.I love it ... totally love the retro feel. That angular thing they've been using for a few years is horrible ... massive upgrade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit disappointed they're not pushing Canterbury-Bankstown more, but oh well.The name change was only very recent, last week I think. The logo has been around nearly 6 months.

BB61 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I like that. I agree that the angular thing was a little weird, and this is a nice modernization with a lot of cool throwback elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr79 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I love the retro-dog. I've seen quite a few bulldog concepts on here, and being used by colleges in the US, but am yet to come across a bulldog image better than the old Canterbury one. The modern update should be better for most uses on screen, in print, on merchandise etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
