One of our readers was keen to see this as a poll... so here goes!
Would you like the Canberra Raiders to return to their original logo? “Yes” for the original... “No” for the current logo!

Every logo will eventually be outdated. At least the original has a lot of history attached.
And when our current logo is outdated I'm for updating it too.
I would never have picked that. Just when you think you’ve got GE figured out...greeneyed wrote:I personally prefer the new one, the old one is very old fashioned. I wouldn’t be opposed to a 2019 update though.

Not a fair comparison at all. The Yankees logo is iconic -it is recognised all over the world, people wear clothing with the logo on it and wouldn't even be able to name a player.EVH wrote: ↑June 27, 2018, 6:19 pmI gotta say my bias lies in a complete misunderstanding of aesthetic appeal of the new one, I think it’s ugly af...Weather it’s good or not is subjective to each individual, but you can’t deny the history behind our original logo. NFL Raiders have kept theirs since the 60’s? Would you update the Yankees logo?

That old Raiders logo is iconic! It was literally the logo of one of the most successful clubs in some of the most iconic years in the history of the sport. I do a little freelance graphic design work and studied it a bit at uni, so i feel pretty passionate about these things. I am actually really surprised that its such an even split, i thought as soon as this debate came up it there would be a huge push for the old logos return, i am too nostalgic...anyway i made this, an even split of the old and new! Let me know what yr think..Raider Azz wrote: ↑June 27, 2018, 9:39 pmNot a fair comparison at all.

Agreed. He's shocked me too.gangrenous wrote:I mean you’re usually all about tradition. I thought you’d have been all up in the grill of the old logo.
But I was wrong. First time for everything I guess
