With the new logo on a similar color scheme to circle style of Borussia Dortmund I reckon their type of jersey style will look really slick in the A-league.

I really hope the logo on the jerseys don't look as goofy as in the promo material as on its own I like to logo.

It's probably just the sharkty photoshops. I hope.

The circle around the bird should be removed, like the facebook photo..

Yeah, I don't like the circle. Makes it look cheap. I assume that is what it will be on the final kits too, though.

THey have photoshopped the logo on the old jerseys until the new ones are released (I believe early Sept). I also think it is meant to be in a circle on the new shirt

I saw it wihtout the circle on the suits worn by Dura and the coaches, so I'm holding out hope it doesnt have the circle on the kit as its a great logo wihtout the circle.

They have also used white, so maybe doesn’t have to always be red

Could it be smaller by about three inches?

Out of Lachy's designs, I'd go Home #2, Away #3, Third #3.

It's definitely inside a circle on the new kit. Suspect that's because it needs a background so you can still see it behind a yellow and a black stripe.

If it wasn't on a "shield" as such, you'd lose half the logo into the background.

My fear about the new logo is that it wont work with a kit like the old one did. From a certain distance it looks like the tail of a whale or something

Yep, I like the logo but it doesn't have very good readability from far away.

Maybe just the bird? Combined with a minimalist kit, it could look pretty banging

Stripey is back! But, was the circle necessary on the home? Put the phoenix in yellow!

the yellow circle on the black looks perfect to me.

the new logo is very flexible, nothing beats simplicity. I'm getting excited, still not pre-ordeing both without seeing them in real ;-)

I just think it could have been even more simplistic without the rest of the logo. But I agree, the full logo does look marginally better being on a black stripe.

And no way I'm preordering yet either! Especially considering I fit into a kids size 16/17!

From a distance it also looks like the "Phantoms" mask....... (of Phantom comics fame).
