Was having a discussion with someone earlier about this..

Has any HAL team completely changed their kit colours to suit their sponsors, apart from MV changing their away kit for Olianda?

If not, I expect it to happen more in future. Wondering who'll do it next..

If I were playing for that club, and that was to be our playing kit for the next season, I'd be asking for a transfer. Anywhere.

How much better would a black and white skeleton kit be, though? :lol:

Of course, there would have to be a spook warning before every game.

Logo and trophies[edit]

The A-League Trophy was designed to resemble a laurel wreath.
The spherical A-League logo was designed by Coast Design Sydney. The two-toned ochre colours represent the sun, earth and desert while the 'glow' emanating from the centre of the logo depicts the playing season's spring and summer time span. The eight 'A' figures that make up the ball shape represent the eight foundation clubs of the league.[42]
The A-League has two trophies which are competed for during the season: the Premier's Plate and the A-League Trophy.[43] The Premier's Plate is awarded to the A-League Premiers, the regular season winners, and the A-League Trophy is awarded to the A-League Champions, the winner of the Grand Final. Both pieces of silverware were designed by Sydney design company D3 design. The A-League Trophy is nicknamed the "Toilet Seat" due to its shape.[44][45][46] Where as the Premier's Plate follows a traditional trophy design, the A-League Trophy differs. In 2005, John O'Neill, FFA CEO commented during the unveiling of the A-League Trophy, "We have a new national league and we feel it is important to re-define the conventional view of a trophy to reflect this". Clive Solari of D3 design explained the trophy's design, saying "We wanted our trophy concept to embody the historical significance of sport in a contemporary design. So we looked to history to see how great achievements have been rewarded across all types of games for thousands of years. The winners of the world's original sporting competition, the Olympic Games, were presented with a laurel wreath on their heads. We used this model as a basis for a unique, cutting-edge design – our trophy is a modern and versatile translation of the wreath. The winners can hold it above their heads as a symbol of success".[47]

Use the same metal to create a normal trophy. Contemporary 2005 looks el crappo 2016.

It just seems stupid.

-It celebrates Greek tradition and symbols (olympics and wreath), which is very ironic
-NZ Knights are represented on it
- The summertime theme is just a bit on the nose

The plate is fine.

I think it ok for a trophy to represent a trophy. We dont need the deep meaningful stuff. The FFA Cup is much better.

I love the toilet seat - it's totally embedded in the culture now to get rid of it. FFA Cup is a 'proper' trophy so we get the best of both worlds.

Agreed. I have come to love it over the last few years.

It's unique and has it's own very Australian humour nickname to boot

So much cultural cringe on this forum, sick of it!
Especially irritating when demonstrated most vehemently by people who live elsewhere it must be said

Don't care about the cultural cringe factor, I just think the toilet seat is a little bland. I love the plate, think it is a classy and simple design that never really gets old. Just think the toilet seat isn't on the same aesthetic level.

I will be in Australia next month for about 5 months. I will complain about it when I'm living in Australia if that is less annoying for you.
