This just popped up on the IP Australia website.

Looks and sounds fine to me - good job bid team (Y)

Much better than Western United's effort.

I think the main logo image is needlessly complicated, though.

If true, the name sounds good. And the logo is ok even if it looks a bit MLS 

Looks good. I like that Bulls isn't in writing, leaving it organic if people start calling them the Bulls.

Good name and logo.
I like the historical links the region has with the bull.

Wish they were coming in next season 

The stars are the major flaw

Piggybacking off the Macarthur Rams much?

Reminds me of Chicago’s basketball team.

so how far is McArthur from Wanderers and Sydney fc?

Sydney FCs base is SFS (very east) and Kogarah (south). WSW are Parramatta which, across sydney actually is pretty central, and Macarthur is futher west.  Sydneys got a pretty complicated geography. 

If you were breaking it up youd probably say Sydney FC for east/south, WSW for north west and Macarthur for South West. Even thats not the best description though

Looks good

Even more impressive is it hasn't been greeted with the usual flow of negativity this forum so often produces, but I'll wait for the usual suspect  

Why the stars?

Don't think it looks complicated at all. You can tell what it is, and it has a bit of style. Or are you being needlessly critical?

is that orange or gold as the 3rd colour?

What time was the official event? 12?

Once again expansion in Melbourne are pathetic and Sydney blows us out of the water. 

That's a good name with respect to football tradition by not forcing the nickname in and strong community approval. Badge is a bit dull with the overdone shield shape and american looking design but it could be a lot worse (like Roars old badge).

If that’s orange someone is colour blind  lol 

Parramatta Stadium is about 10km closer to the SFS than Campbelltown as the crow flies.  WSW catchment would be defined West/North West while Macarthur are definitely South West.  It will be interesting to see how far south of Parramatta the line is drawn between the two teams as it is quite obvious that Macarthur are trying to incorporate areas that WSW currently hold e.g. Bankstown/Fairfield which both (in a whole of Sydney context) are referred to as South West but are much closer to Parramatta than Campbelltown. WSW also play a lot of their youth/women games at Marconi and Sydney United Sports Park which both are considered South West.

had a feeling i might be :unsure:

Have they held numerous fan forums and run online polls for potential members to have their say? Can't say I've heard anything along those lines or feedback from those who attended... Not that i've subscribed for updates or anything but usually the top options and rumours float around forums in advance of the announcement. This seems to have been held under wraps until today?

im sure they got all their data via online surveys

Thanks for giving your opinion; I gave mine - which is usually what a forum is used for.

I think it's needlessly complicated; there are unneeded lines and cuts which won't show up properly in most reproductions of the logo anyway.

In terms of structure, it's not bad.

Looks good. Agree that they should cut the stars out.

Couldnt give 2 shits about the stars to be honest. They are just thrown in there for more details in the logo

Designing the logo to optimistically reflect their first 3 premierships in the HAL?  Logo looks ok, but the stars look daft.

Would look much better if the shield contoured the bull-horns and the lettering.

They are the commonwealth stars. 

Commonwealth stars are meant to say they are from Australia and not to say they won championships

i like it.


looks like gold to me. 

If this is what they are going with then surely the walkout song will be Sirius by the Allen Parsons Project.
