Could be OK as an away strip.
:thumbsup

First impressions, It's a bit girly.
-
If it is in any way linked to an away strip then I withdraw my support.
-
Does that logo come with instructions on how to perform a rusty trombone?
The members and fans should be poled (ha) on whether they like it or not as we clearly have a better overall
idea of what works and what takes it in the ars.
-
It's stuffing disgusting. Someone tell rfc official guy

More like instructions on how to play the skin trombone.

Why don't they just use the Tiger from the Frosties Box coz it looks like it? Slap a bib on it give it a spoon and plate of Frosties and milk and we'll have Kelloggs as a new major sponsor or suing us for copyright. There goes the FTF.
A tiger is regal majestic courageous fearsome intelligent proud cunning solitary calculating .
This tiger if it is our new logo needs a major overhaul. Does not inspire fear at all. Makes me want to get a can of whiskas and tap a spoon on the lid.
Perhaps it can be used for the RFC kids range of merchandise. Will suit ages 3-5.

What a rubbish logo.

Eek! :P
Too cartoonish and too generic with just a clip-art tiger. It hasn't got anything that says Richmond. Gawd I hope we aren't the ones seriously considering it and decided to patent it :help.

All for a facelift but prefer the ferociousness of the current one. This is much softer.

and lets call ourselves the Richmond Pride.
We could sell viles of amyl nitrate for when McGuane gets the ball and black and yellow plugs for when the team gve us the poos.
Win/Win.
Edit: Let's keep the discussion above the belt thanks.
-
Hated it at first, then looked at it again and though its not so bad, now I actually think its good. It has grown on me!
I do wonder why they did not use the tiger in our membership drive logo?
-
Yeah I don't mind it. At least it's not like Melbourne's logo.
Melbourne's logo looks like Stynes and co. all got involved in the design process....

Is there a new Tiger of old?

AS Richmond move to secure some of their impressive youngsters, and battle to reduce their massive debt, speculation is growing that they could also be planning to modernise the club’s famous Tiger brand.
Sportsnewsfirst.com.au has discovered trademark applications were made on behalf of the AFL for a new stylised Tiger logo earlier this month.
The restyled Tiger features prominent yellow, black and white stripes, with the roaring head standing outside the shield-shaped background and looking in the opposite direction to the current version.
Speculation has already begun on various internet forums about whether the Tigers could be about to change the current logo, which has been on the famous yellow and black shirt since 1995.
Opinions were decidedly mixed on the new version, with several fans saying the new Tiger appeared ‘softer’ than the current version.
“A tiger is regal, majestic, courageous, fearsome, intelligent, proud, cunning, solitary, calculating,” wrote one poster on Tigers forum ‘one-eyedRichmond.com’.
“This tiger, if it is our new logo, needs a major overhaul. Does not inspire fear at all. Makes me want to get a can of Whiskas and tap a spoon on the lid.”
Some fans were more complimentary however.
“Love it. I can see when the name gets added to it, it will be really exceptional. Strong yet modern. Represents the new Richmond,” another wrote on Big Footy.
“As much as I loved the look of the old logo, it's dated. It represents another era of failure. We are moving forward.”

:lol Tucky
It's actually growing on me, maybe because I was never a fan of the old one. The brown eyes will forever be a disappointment, but I think it is in a way a modernised version of the Centenary logo, with the shield and the tiger being updated.
Need to wait and see how they incorporate the words Richmond Football Club into it. Choice of font and the typography on our previous logos has always been rubbish IMO.
Anyway, :gotigers

On ya Tucky and well said :thumbsup :bow ;D

stuff me warts grow on you as well. go with your first impressions fellas it's crap. looks like it should be on the door of a tourist safari park vehicle

But I really do hope the Club gives at least members a say.

True gerks but they also promised (I think Benny did earlier this year) that they'd get feed back from the members
Remebering of course it is members & the fans who buy the merchandise that has the logos on it

Richmond considers new logo design
From: Herald Sun June 23, 2011 6:18PM
RICHMOND is going back to the drawing board in a bid to put more roar back into their Tiger.
This is one of the options Richmond is considering for a new logo.
(http://pericles.ipaustralia.gov.au/tmimages/cgi-bin/get_tmi_image.pl?list=1429384.1&resolution=med)
It was registered as a trademark by the AFL earlier this month.
Richmond chief executive Brendon Gale confirmed today that the club was looking at potential options around logo design and use.
"But nothing has been finalised at this stage,'' Gale said. "It is a significant process we are undertaking, and we look forward to sharing the result with our fans once it is completed.''
The logo has appeared on fan web forums, to a mostly positive response. Although not all Tiger fans are happy.
"The head itself is OK but the chipmunk chest looks stupid," Disco08 wrote at Puntroadend.com.
TommysTigers offered some constructive criticism: "Give us a Tiger that looks like it will tear yer head orf and spit down yer neck. How 'bout one with all the other mascots shredded and mangled and hangin' out its mouth?"

Terrible design, makes the Paddle Pop Lion look macho rather than a passive aggressive.
Tiger Stripes Dyer has more appeal.

That Tiger is on Valium FFS!

I'd like to see what the other options are given this latest design is the only one that has been trade marked by the AFL.

Yeah was thinking the same thing
Have to say I've worked out what I like about if and what I don't
Tigers head I can live with but it is the chest in the shield that I don't like. I'd rather see the Tigers head centred in the shield without the neck & chest.
As it stands for me at least it's too big and with too much going on when the focus should be our main theme the Tiger

I just don't think it suits the image of us being once again the apex predator of this competition, need something that says dont stuff with us instead of come and f us.
-

Agree WP. As a work in progress I don't mind it but the chest area really bugs me. Perhaps if it was covered up with writing it would look better. It does look half finished at the moment. Hopefully it is just that, a work in progress.

Agree bring it back. Change the VFL logo to an AFL logo, put a footy between the paws and make the tongue abit red to change it up. Thats all. nice and simple.
-
That eighties one was good becuase it was simple, however the tiger doesnt really look that aggressive.
We need a tiger thats p155ed off, like a tiger would look like if it hadnt been fed for a week, and had been jabbed in the ribs with a shovel

The leaping Tiger in the old 80s logo would need updating and modernising but the sash and all at least says who we are whereas this new design is too generic and could mean any organisation. The new design also has far too much white thanks to the chest and white lines down each side of the shield. I'm in favour of changing the current logo but this new one isn't the answer.

It is just this one. The club is getting too cute with the other logo and frankly peeing me off by putting that other faggy logo up.

and then hucked a carlton player in there and tried to drag it back out, just when the Tiger snatches the corpse back, thats when you take the photo....the warning snarl.....

Don't stuff with something that aint broke.
I appreciate the marketing division aiming it at a new demographic but htey need to remember,who pays for these kids to attend,etc.
Some minor adjustments to the above logo to bring it into this age while honoring the original.
It's not that hard.............

No Probs Monk. I was going to mock one up for each opposition team but realised that fitting an F1-11 into a tigers mouth and making it look realistic is harder than I thought. ;D
TBR, I'll have a crack at the 80's logo and see if I can modernise it a bit. Anyone know where I can score a reasonably high res version of it?

GOLD.
Richmond Football Club 2012
WHAT'S FOR DINNER?
Mag pie with a Gibb's side salad.
The new logo is about appealing more to kids and the corporates.

Well as promised, Here is a logo I whipped up with a similar theme to the 80's one. Its just a rough mock up so it can be changed quite easily.
Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I really like the 'new logo' now.
Sorry but not a fan of the old shield style look, I understand it was fantastic back then, but these days it looks plain and boring.
-
Sorry but not a fan of the old shield style look, I understand it was fantastic back then, but these days it looks plain and boring.
It's well out of date now but when you remember watching 4 or so winning Tiger premierships under that logo it holds some good memories and represents where you want the tigers to get back to.
It's hard to describe to the younger supporters just what it was like to be a Richmond supporter back then. You were hated but even better you were feared. You could be arrogant and nobody could touch you over it because there was no argument.
I suppose for me that is what that old 70s - 80s logo represents.
Perhaps after a period of success that new logo may also represent the mighty tiger. Until then it's just a logo a bit like the current one.

I understand how seeing that logo can bring back all those memories and why the older generation fans want to see it used again. It could however ruin that for you all, if we were to be down the bottom during it's re-introduction.
For me the current logo represents the pain we have all copped from years of unfulfilled promises and plans and mediocrity.
A new logo needs to be implemented for this new era we are embarking on, one that we can use to write a new history with and I like this logo, looks nothing like any others we have had previously. :gotigers

I really like the 'new logo' now.
Sorry but not a fan of the old shield style look, I understand it was fantastic back then, but these days it looks plain and boring.
He looks proud.
He's happy being a Tiger.
He's looking up saying"I'm Richmond and all you are down there below"
-
A tiger is regal majestic courageous fearsome intelligent proud cunning solitary calculating .
This tiger if it is our new logo needs a major overhaul. Does not inspire fear at all. Makes me want to get a can of whiskas and tap a spoon on the lid.
Maybe the Club saw Saturday coming when it designed the new softer looking Tiger logo Tucky :inquisition :scream.

It actually is a copy of a rugby logo.
I don't like the white in it.
I know alot love the logo we have now.

Maybe the club should focus more on winning games? Just a thought.

That tiger logo is applicable for a non contact sport like basketball.
Quite appropriate we played bruise footy on Saturday.
Funny also that since we lodged the logo to the AFL our on field effort has gone downhill.
Now where is the spoon the cats are getting hungry. Poosh Poosh Poosh Kitty.

A bit late for a petition I would have thought seeing all the training gear, club gear & merch for 2012 are probably being made as we speak... we have sponsor locked in for 2012 so there's unlikely to be a delay this year
I'll add this to my list of things to try and suss out tonight ;D
-
Let it change, need something fresh, and I actually like the new design.
-
Let it change but not to the one that was leaked. That is poo..
The current one is much better than the proposed one.. I hope they find a better design.
-
Its a kiddie friendly design ::)
-
Not certain that I loved the options but i reckon the time is right to change, this current one has been associated with blackest period in clubs history, enough said
-
No news on this topic at the B&F .... if it's going to change no one was saying ;D
We didn't even get a small glimpse of what they are planning membership campaign wise for 2012

It's a good idea to update our logo but not to that generic cartoon version. It's still up on the IP Australia btw :-\.

Really looking forward to seeing what the club comes up with in regards to the new logo(if indeed it's happening).
Personally I didn't mind aspects of the one that was floated by the club during the year. Thought it just needed a bit of finessing and a more aggressive edge but it was on the right track. Despite the fact that a lot of my pre-purchased merch becomes dated overnight, it's definately time for a makeover though, of that I'm sure. Should also be a good money spinner for the club. 8)

theres a good side and a bad side to this.
the good side is that i will help the club clear old stock.
the bad side is i will probably not buy any more merchandise until they are all stuffed....and then i'll cut the old logo off and get the missus to sew it over that. ^ :thumbsup

No disrepect to rugby league or basketball but it would be much better suited to there leagues.

Hmmm a couple of weeks eh?
2012 Draw due to be released 28th Oct
Club saying membership campaign will be launched within 48 hours of the draw coming out (btw IMHO membership should have been launched last week :banghead)
Looks like it's all locked into together
Will be extremely disappointing if the suggested logo is what they go with seeing more comments have been in the negative than the positive....
Would have thought it was something the club actually could have/ should have got feedback from members on
if the change it poor decision and poorly done RFC
-
Yep members should of got to vote on 2 or 3 options.
Smacks of arrogance, however false.....
I am sure somewhere along the way I will get used to it :huh
-
I like the logo, don't mind if that is the final option.
-
Yeah they should also let us vote on team selection each week, contract extentions, draft choices, and trades :banghead
I'm extremely disappointed in this club :banghead :banghead
-
I think the choice of logo is one thing that the members should have some input into. After all we are the ones that fork out money for merchandise that has the mark on it.
My guess is though that they have done some market research and it appeals to the younger audience and they are the ones they need/want to win over.
It still makes me :chuck though, it really is ordinary.

Agree al, that was my point

There has been a bit of market research down at the club over the past 2 years, focusing on member feedback. Perhaps the logo was included on the agenda?
But then again, what sort of member would vote for that piece o crap?

Personally I kind of like it but would like a little more aggression than it has currently.
Just a bit Kimba-ish currently.

Still like the proposed new logo, I'm all for a vote with some options though!
-
The main issue for me apart from it looking like a cartoon character is it doesn't say Richmond anywhere on the logo. I would've thought that was marketing 101 to clearly identify your product or service to the consumer. Apart from the generic tiger, which could relate to any sporting club around the country with a tiger monikor, there's no identity to that logo that says to people this is and belongs to the Richmond Football Club.

People are making assumptions, the logo could be something completely different and even if it is the same tiger as the one that has been floated, I'm sure that some changes will be made and it wont be exactly the same.
Everyone needs to chill out.

I agree it could be compleyely different but if you are going to look a changing it then why did they not consult yhe members?
But, why has the "possible new logo" been registered if it isn't seriously being considered.
And even if they were to only use part of the new "possible logo" the main part of it the Tiger head is not a good look

Who really cares about the logo - old or new - it's just marketing bullcrap anyway.
It's nothing with any roots in what makes Richmond the club it is.
It's not the jumper, or the song, or Punt Road Oval.
In fact it's not even on the jumper.
It means nothing to the players, and it means nothing to me.

Having 'Richmond Est 1885' underneath at least solves one of the concerns I had before of the logo not saying what it represents.
Here's a pic of the full body tiger (well near enough) that I mentioned about in the fan forum thread last night. I actually prefer it to the logo as it takes away from having so much white in the chest.

Nah decent job for mine. Some of you need to wash once in a while.

As a design job Gerks, it is a pass mark, but as it is our clubs logo, I am marking it harder. It will work on a black background, but as soon as you put it on anything else its gonna look like balls admit it.

yes it appears to be floating, no continuity between head and torso. I was thinking the same but held back.. stuff it lets go all out on it. The prick took two pictures of two tigers in poses he thought he could combine, used Illustrator to trace them and turn it into vector art and pasted one over the other. Job done, pay me now.

I think the new logo is great, but the timing of the release is curious.
Surely would have been better to release when all the footy shows etc are on air to give it maximum exposure and create a bit of fanfare? Maybe at the start of the preseason comp or something?

Richmond fans torn over new Tiger
By Tim Clarke
Sports News First
19 October 2011 03:20PM EST
TIGERS fans are torn over the new logo unveiled by the club, with some Richmond faithful upset members were not consulted about the new image.
The Tigers today unveiled the new emblem to adorn the club’s branding and guernseys in 2012, after it was first revealed by Sportsnewsfirst.com.au back in June.
And with merchandise already available for fans to purchase, even before the fixtures for 2012 have been released, opinions were split over whether the new branding was a success – or diluted the yellow and black.
“What a waste of money, I would buy a new Polo shirt every season, I won't be next season, the Brisbane mascot has a new best friend the ''Paddle Pop Tiger'', haven't we got more important things to worry about, like making the finals,” one fan wrote on the club’s website.
“It's disappointing that the club has gone to such lengths (extensive research, interviews and workshops, in co-operation with creative agency Canyon Design Group), yet did not include the opinion of the members in their choice. The new tiger is not ferocious. This is not the Tiger of Old,” said another.
“Every year I spend a substantial amount at the Tiger Den, but I doubt I'll be buying merchandise with this logo.”
Others however were more positive.
"We are a club full of pride and respect. I love how the tiger stand tall to demand respect ... thank you Richmond for a brand new era leading forward to a exciting future," said Roy Stewart.
The restyled Tiger features prominent yellow, black and white stripes, with the roaring head standing outside the shield-shaped background and looking in the opposite direction to the current version.
Club CEO Brendon Gale said extensive market research had gone into the rebranding – but the club were also aware that not including fans would be contentious.
“This is a project that the club’s administration is responsible for delivering, as that has been the case when the club has made changes in the past," the club website said.
"The club's board has an administration that they have great confidence in – they have undertaken a thorough and considered process and achieved a very worthwhile result.
“An internal committee was formed to oversee the process and this group worked closely with creative agency Canyon Design Group.
“The club thinks the finished product is a wonderful representation of what this club stands for.”

I'm a pretty good judge of a cats facial expressions as I have a feral one at home which I have to keep a close eye on to avoid a regular ankle mauling
and this new Tiger's expression looks more like "I've got my tail stuck in a hole fully of angry Meerkat's" rather than "I'm Hungry, Angry and I'm gonna come and eat you."
I think this logo below is more inspiring....

I totally agree with this guy, why aren't our marketing team and the graphic design company out there scouting for the best talent in the nation with the draft only weeks away!!
Why aren't the staff in the Tiger Superstore in the gym trying to beef up for next season!!!

Logo looks quite good, good job on the video too, helps markedly in selling the Logo. Well done to all concerned.

Skeletor was my favorite. Heman and his page boy hair cut was stuffing bizarre, what was he some sort of Amish barbarian ? 'Wait right there battlecat, ill just help these peasants erect this barn.'

Merman was my favorite, and he was a playa. He could kick both their behinds and be home in time for nookie with his Marine biatches. Oh yeah

Best mate is a geelong fan, he said if you swap colours to navy blue and white it could pass as a Geelong Cats logo... don't really agree but it looks to much like a cat for mine.
No issue changing the logo, just get it right.
-
looks as much like a cat as I do Brad Pitt, you gotta get off the gunja popey :lol
-
It is putrid.
If you need a video to sell your logo then your logo is stuffed.
Did you put that video up because the same bloke drew the neck on He-Man as on the tiger Gerks?
-
Makes me feel like a beer.
-
freakin terrible.
whats with the Geelong Cat wearing the Collingwood scarf ?
-
Makes me feel like a beer.
:lol Correct. It looks like an asian beer logo.
I'm very underwhelmed by the logo. Way too much white on the chest. I do like the snarl on the tigers face but that's all I like about it.
The banner ad is amateurish.
The cartoon in the club video of the tiger running up to and bursting thru the logo was high school standard.
The video itself had the production values of a public service training video and if Bill Hunter was still alive would probably have narrated it.
All of these things may bother me less if I knew how much the club was spending on it. But it seems members aren't allowed to know these things lately, because hey we are all as one. They should have made this an occasion for the fans to get involved. For example I'm sure Popelord could have designed a better banner than that and he would have done it for the price of a complimentary 11 game membership. What a waste of money this is.

This similarity was asked about at the fan forum. The answer was the new logo was accepted by IP Australia so there's no expected legal issues.

I've heard it cost $150k but I have nothing to back that it up or verify it if it's true. Seems waaaay too much for a logo design.
The Club was reluctant for supporter involvement as the design needed to be cleared by the AFL who own our IP right and while it didn't have trademark protection anybody could steal a prototype design and register it before the Club does.

Seriously,this looks like an Advertisement fro a cheap,summer animation Flick about a heartless tiger.
The "Glow" in the centre of the disgusting yellow looks like it was stolen from a christian website.
It's just a stuffing joke and so r all the duckwits that said they liked it at the club.
I hate you bastards.

On behalf of RollsRoyce, here are a couple of Tiger designs he came up with for run-throughs for the cheer squad.
Don't you think they have a ferocity that our logo lacks? Maybe you could post them on OER and see what people think."

Spot on DC. You summed up my thoughts on the appearance of the logo exactly. And the idea of putting the design out into 'supporter land' has a lot of merit - didn't Port get their current jumper design that way?
-

They look about as angry as I did in that rd24 Nth Melb. game, when BT said that I should go home. But seriously, a couple of things that were said at the forum which beggared belief were that they didn't want to come up with a logo that frightened the kids. And that the new Tigers face conveyed a sense of optimism.

Decided to be on here less these days but thought I'd come back just like John Farnham lol ... This logo is a shocker. Brackets is correct with everything he says. This tiger seems to be a lost soul, walking aimlessly on the road to nowhere probably looking for his mum. He is not a real tiger, he is an imposter. He also looks like a toff (at best) and a sissyter (at worst). Richmonds administration is taking the pee out of the supporters IMHO. I can see merchandise sales going through the floor with this one. Its a terribe terrible logo. Richmond should ask for a refund its just a poor piece of work IMHO.
-
they didnt want to come up with a logo that frightened the kids?
LMFAO
Have they ever seen what kids watch today and the video games they play?
Perhaps now we need a new song to fit along side this?

In case some of you haven't noticed most of the AFL teams logos are !@#$.Half look like they were designed by year 10 art students....the other half are "knock offs" of some NFL or NBA franchise.
No one will care about the logo when Richmond becomes a force again.

Corporate identity is a big one, if you stuff it up, it your usually lumbered with it for some time and it has usually cost a bomb, only a football club can get away with this sipshod approach...just... have a look at the dockers and port desperately trying to correct their original abortions. I suppose they have calculated they can always go retro and win with the tigers lol.
-
If this new logo is supposed to represent the club looking ahead to a new era, then why is the Tiger looking over its' shoulder? Perhaps it's looking back to the days of Royce Hart and Kevin Bartlett?

People normally use the phrase "You can't please everyone" but in the case of this logo its more like "You can't please anyone".
I heard what MT had heard as well about it costing 150K but apparently the majority of that cost went into hospital bills for the first commissioned artist as he was asked to "faithfully reproduce an angry tiger" and he mistakenly thought he heard the word "with" after "reproduce". ;D

careful not to speak on behalf of EVERYONE tiga, personally, i like it , im done with the tired old logo that served up NOTHING in 2 fruitless decades. it does nothing but serve as a reminder of 15 years of misery. So to respond to your mistruth that "you cant please anyone"...i applaud the club on burying the symbolic figurehead of a failed era :gotigers
-
I don't mind refreshing the corporate identity, as long as you replace it with something of quality and not the tigger the friendly domestic house cat pretending to be a stuffing tiger. It is a TIGER the only beastie on earth known to kill grizzly bears and eat them....ffs (k cept for humans but they cheat). Some idiots in a America tried to pit lions against them and the lions got smashed but thats another story.
-
c'mon owl, and what was so good about the old one by comparrison ::)
-
The simply answer for me is the old one looks much better.
I don't mind changing the logo, but don't do it for a cheap beer label rip off that looks like it is wearing a black and white jumper.
-
c'mon owl, and what was so good about the old one by comparrison ::)
Mr. Bojangles (are you a Dylan fan by any chance?) Many of us, like yourself also feel that the time had come for a change, and applaud the club for burying a symbol associated with an era of failure as you say. But seeing as we're likely to have be lumbered with this logo for some time, it was imperative that we got it right. Instead, like most critics my objection is that it's too cartoon-like, nowhere near FIERCE enough, and reminds me of a cross between Kimba the white lion, and a beer commercial.
Check out page 3 of this thread for some Tiger heads I drew for the cheer squads run-throughs several years ago for an idea of the kind of ferocity I think we should have gone for. But these clowns didn't want to scare the kids.

Does any club's logo instil fear in you?
The new logo is fresh, young and something completely different, just like the club. And just like the club it will stand defiant against opposition and criticism.
-
good point dwaino...some of the comments to build the case against are peurile at best. Listen if we had won 3 or more flags under that logo then Id be the first to chain myself to the JD statue in protest , sadly the facts are it has been a horrid period and we need to sweep the place clean, image and all...let it be and embrace it, this childish dont like my vegies style approach is pathetic :o
-
Getting more used to it each time i see it, however I'm sure many of you just loved the old traditional logo like myself?
Not sure that a logo will change the way that we go on the field but anyway... :huh
-
c'mon owl, and what was so good about the old one by comparrison ::)
Does any club's logo instil fear in you?
No of course not, and that's the point. The fact that these marketing gurus even considered that the kiddies needed to be protected from having a big bad Tiger on our badge is patently ridiculous. Have they even seen the kind of video games kids play?Do we really need this kind of a nanny state approach when designing a logo?
Edited to correct quote
-
To me, a sporting club's logo is almost like it's fingerprint - it says a lot in a small single image about what the club stands for and how it sees itself. And that is what I liked about the old logo, much more so than any other we have had in our past. To me it said strong, traditional, dependable, fearless and solid, even if the performance hasn't been living up to that over the past years it still stamped the club with that message. And now we have ditched that logo for one that (to me) puts us into the category of plastic, mickey mouse, fly-by-night. I'm not a soccer fan but instantly I see the Gun logo I know that the club is Ar$enal (bloody swear filter) and that they have been a major sporting club for a long long time. Same with the New York Yankees logo - they have only had 2 logos in their 100 year history and both of them are instantly recognizable the world over. Even in corporate marketing-mad America they have kept their logo intact as a statement of who they are, how long they've been, and how they perceive themselves. The club renowned as the biggest sporting club in the world - Manchester United - their logo remains constant year in, year out - there is no justification for them to meet the corporate marketing benchmark by regular change. Actually, they make the benchmark meet them by their popularity and success, just the way it should be. And to bring my message closer to home, I wonder why Collingwood or have felt no need to meet the market by changing their logo over the years? There might have been a minor tweak over the years (I really don't know) but their basic Magpie logo has been the way it is now for the whole of my lifetime and Collingwood boast the most support and recognition of all AFL clubs Australia-wide.
I felt our old logo was the first one we had got right in our history and said everything I liked about our club. It's a shame that as we approach an era of some level of success and heightened coverage/exposure that the club have felt the need to re-image themselves with a serious downgrade in appearance and message. Damn shame really.
-
I agree smokey. If it isn't broken, don't fix it.
-
Spot on Smokey. This new logo is a joke, and the manner of introduction abhorrent. Where's the consultation with the key "stakeholder" - the members.
Can see through the retrospective justification from RFC_O as spin without content.
If RFC really want the 75k + members - engage us in a meaningful dialogue and dont be afraid of the reply !
Its not a Tiger its a cartoon pussy and a cheap rip off - and what does that say about the new RFC administration ?
-
settle down darth you're being ridiculous, the club employs people to make strategic decisions that cut across commercial operations and marketing. opening these types of decisions up to the peanut gallery would generally do more harm than good. Honestly what would most supporters know o0f marketing...from the general responses Ive waded through , NOT very much. The case for a NEW image is open and shut, acceptance of a NEW one will always be an arbitrary one...heck 10 people couldnt agree on a fav beer letalone a picture. what we need to lock onto is the catalyst for change and that is a horid period that the club is working hard to emerge from

I disagree, BJ.
I would have liked to see the club announce an intention to review the current logo and call for submissions from people of new logos.
I have heard of that being done before by other organisations and they attract the interest of many graphic design students looking to make a name for themselves.
You then throw the best ones up for a members vote, including the existing logo, and go from there, creating a buzz around the whole process and making people feel engaged.
You also save yourself several hundreds of thousands of dollars paying wankers to watch videos of Tigers in the wild.

There was no need to spend over 100 grand on that logo. Give us one good reason and don't use this 'new era' poo.
-
Have to say I have tried to avoid the new logo since it's launch. Wanted to forget about it and come back have another look, re-watch the video and see if I felt differently about it
Sadly ...nope.... the video tells me what it is supposed to represent with the focus being on being "PROUD" but this design just doesn't do it for me....
Maybe in time....
Suppose one of the biggest test for me will be how it comes up on the new merchandise....

Honestly what would most supporters know o0f marketing...from the general responses Ive waded through , NOT very much. The case for a NEW image is open and shut, acceptance of a NEW one will always be an arbitrary one...heck 10 people couldnt agree on a fav beer letalone a picture. what we need to lock onto is the catalyst for change and that is a horid period that the club is working hard to emerge from
A catalyst for change would be to make finals - and make them in consecutive years for the 1st time since 74/75.
Hows that for a genuine paradigm shift !
If you believe a new logo will do it for you - good for you.
it has NOTHING to do with our form onfiled. THINK commercial operations, marketing, sponsorship brand imaging and how the OLD failed Richmond of last three decades is seen in public arena that is ridicule, embarrasment, failure, butt of jokes scorn are just a few words that come to mind and you might begin to understand the catalyst for change :shh
No Bojangles. Darth Tiger is absolutely correct. A new logo will neither provide a catalyst for change, nor alter the way we are perceived by other supporters one iota.

oh yeah, absolutely correct ::), business is like a puzzle there are a number of pieces required to get it right. New team, new facilities, NEW LOGO are all necessary parts to getting this club back to the BIG 4. But hey I dont mind you asking the kids what they think. Toddlers are crazy in a cool way in what just pops out :lol

and you accused someone else of clutching at straws?
The only thing that will turn around how the club is perceived is on field success.

I am telling you a change of identity can change everybodies outlook, Join Team WIN, Join Doyle!!! (and get the eff out of my Fed Square!) :police: :police: :police:

You idiot. The new logo is a big part of turning this around. If we had success with our old logo then people wouldn't accept because it was our logo in a bad time for the club. This is common sense mate :lol

In the order of standings, the black Jumper with Yellow sash is remembered by all well before the logo. Personally I don't blame the logo (or the Jumper) for any of our dark days as their representation of the club has never changed and never should. It didn't kill us at the draft table, It didn't pick Wallace as our coach, it didn't miss goals or tackles or a ton of turnovers when we were flogged by 157 points by Geelong in 2007, It didn't sign Jordan McMahon. It stood there proud as ever as symbol of courage, tenacity and strength. Just because the personnel within the club were not able to achieve these levels of excellence, doesn't mean the the logo should take the fall. I remember individuals for our past failings not the logo.
Ask any Tiger Fan one question. Who or what do you believe accurately represents the failings of this club over the past 30 years? I guarantee you will hear responses such as Frawley, Wallace, Walls, Miller, Beck, Gieschen, Lounder, McMahon, general drafting incompetence etc... etc... The Logo like the Jumper will never rate a mention.

the tired old logo does nothing but serve as a reminder of being constantly rogered for the last 20 years...ea time i look at it , it makes me feel like Ive quaffed a cheap whisky....ooooh but I love it soooooo, dont leave me old logo, please your breaking my heart, sooooooo many good times , gimmeea a break :lol

But as I said, The Jumper is a far stronger representation of the club than the logo, so by your rationale, we should be changing our Jumper first. Oh to hell with it, lets change our Colours as well. Lets have bright happy colours that will take us into the future and a new beginning....Gimme a break.

I supported a change of the logo so I'm not against change but I was at least expecting a logo that incorporated the word 'Richmond' or 'Richmond FC' into it rather than adding the actual name of the club off the bottom as an afterthought. The 'Richmond' part is already being left out in most uses in the media. I would've thought it was marketing 101 to have a logo that clearly tells the viewer who it represents and that a good logo shouldn't need a 6 minute video to have to explain what it is!
No doubt the new logo be eventually accepted as we get use to it and we have no choice in it anyway lol but I can see it being changed again.

Not to mention the money and time they spent on it. It takes a year to change a logo as it has to clear the AFL and its licences as well as trademarks etc.

Now Mr RFC_O don't miss quote me ;D
I'm still not a fan of the actual logo but I will admit that the entrance to the gym looks good with that design - adding the body on the white background makes a massive difference IMHO
Come to think of it what's on the entrance to the gym would make a better logo than the actual logo ;D
I think I even said the same thing on Twitter ;D

Have been pretty vocal about not being a great fan of this new logo
After looking through the Summer Merch Catalogue I've actaully worked what it is about the logo I don't like ;D
It's that bloody shield
I saw this in the catalogue:
(https://shopdesq.imgstg.com/assets/shopdesq/products/images/thumbnail/2011RFCMerch_ROAR%20POWER%20MENS%20TEE%20180.jpg)
And thought I don't mind that Tiger head. Then it dawned on me - it's the shield and the chest bit - theuy're what I dont' like about the new logo; not the actual Tiger head it actually looks good ;D
So what I am saying that for me if that Tiger head on its own was our new logo with the Richmond Est 1885 incorporated in that I'd be giving it lots of these :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup
Just wanted to share :rollin
-
I think the new logo looks pretty good. Has grown on me quickly.

Its certainly a good logo.. But nowhere near as good as the old one.
I miss the old one already.

Makes me feel like a beer.
:lol Correct. It looks like an asian beer logo.

This similarity was asked about at the fan forum. The answer was the new logo was accepted by IP Australia so there's no expected legal issues.
The Herald-Sun today has only just realised our new logo looks similar to a beer logo :wallywink

I agree. I wasn't a fan when it first appeared but I've since changed my mind. Best logo we've had.

Don't know if any of you have noticed but theres actually 2 versions of it.
One has more black in the mane and the other has more white. Dunno why they did this, the black one looks a thousand times better imo.

I will admit that when it was launched I wasn't a fan of it

Richmond Football Club
Canyon
Graphic Design - Corporate Identity and Branding
Project Overview
Richmond Football Club was ready for a new identity. An identity that captured the essence of this famous club, reflected its core values and while consistent with the past, was clearly focused on a successful future.
Project Commissioner
Richmond Football Club
Ben Jenkins
Project Creator
Mark Patterson
Director
Canyon
Project Team
Creative Director- Quentin Brown
Brand/Marketing Strategy- Mark Patterson
Implementation- Scott James
Graphic Design- Neil Moorehouse
While the above four chiefly worked on the project, the whole team at Canyon made invaluable contribution to the Richmond Football Club Identity and Brand Charter
Project Brief
The old Richmond Football Club logo, introduced in 1993, had never been a part of premiership success. It did not represent Richmond’s days of Power and Glory, and after so many years of disappointment, it could never capture the new sense of pride, determination and expectation of success shared by every Tiger supporter.
The new Tiger presents a contemporary face for Richmond while remaining true to their rich tradition as a proud and powerful team.
The tiger stands tall and confident. It is not a caricature, but a faithful representation of an animal with a presence that demands respect. Its pose has been developed to portray the
perfect balance of skill and strength. It’s been Richmond's inspiration for over a hundred years.
The contemporary integration of the Tiger and shield against the more classic ‘Richmond’ and ‘EST 1885’ typography encapsulates Richmond's focus on the future whilst maintaining a strong connection with the past. The new tiger looks forward, but serves as a reminder that even after 100 years, the black and yellow stripes continue to represent a proud and powerful team.
Project Innovation / Need
The campaign illustrated that branding plays a huge role in the success of a sports club both as a team and as a business.
Richmond's success in the last year both on the field, but perhaps more importantly in membership growth and engagement, financial growth and sponsorship growth, we believe is directly correlated to their new identity, positioning, and the epitomisation of the values entrenched in the club.
Sporting brands are value based. They are based on passion, driven by emotion and their attraction is less about what they do for us, but how they make us feel.
The task of changing or updating a brand demands great respect and understanding of its heritage and core values. The Richmond Football Club branding process began with extensive research, interviews, workshops and consultation to identify and define the essence and values that would be reflected in the new Richmond Football Club brand and identity.
Design Challenge
As with many re-branding projects, the main challenge was to capture the heritage of the Richmond Football Club whilst looking to the future.
Unique to sports clubs is the passion and emotion the brand invokes in its fans. The challenge with Richmond Football Club was to take something old and outdated, but loved nonetheless, and turn it into something modern, inspiring, and which brought to life the brand values, without losing it's history and what the Tiger meant to the fans.
Sustainability
Where possible, we present concepts and designs digitally, so as to avoid printing and paper wastage. We also recommend using recycled paper stocks, and use local printers and suppliers, who themselves are environmentally conscious in their processes.

WHAT would happen if your AFL team logo ate too much?
A recent contest run by DesignCrowd, a custom design website, asked its team of contributing designers from around the world to supersize their favourite AFL logos.
Here’s what they came up with ...

Not at all pal. Why didn't you include the rest of that message ? For those playing at home I said it's a good logo (which in 2011 it was) but was nowhere near as good as the previous 90s tigerhead logo which imo was the most timeless logo in the AFL and should never have been changed. I did think the Thai beer current one was ok when it came out but in 3 years it has aged plenty and just looks shocking now. Needs to be moved on already imho or to quote WP imhv.

On BF's design board, they've done a few Richmond logo designs based on European soccer clubs.
With due respect they're awful.
