Westgate Diggers has always been my preferece. Westgate as it is the road that leads to the west, Geelong and Ballarat (which is their target fan base) and Diggers due to its historical reference to the Eureka Stockade.

That sounds like the name of an under 12 basketball side.

hoops might appeal to Geelong residents i guess, but i don't think its very original. Westgate Diggers has always been my preferece.

That's cringe-worthy

I was thinking it sounds like the name of an AFLX side......

lol, thats just Kardinia Park Stadium Management posturing for a good deal. WMG were in dialogue with KPSM before they were awarded the licence, but couldn't commit to any agreement until they received confirmation of the licence. there will be an announcement soon, trust me.

Westside Bloods.

Interestingly there's already a Westside Strikers which is a good name.

 

[TT33]

Westgate Gridlock would be more like it. ;D

Probably. Go gaters or go diggers?

Maybe moving away from the traditional names is best?

Westgate Jam?

 

[Giardiasis]

Westside Welfare

Westside Welfare

They could do checks on all spectators to find welfare cheats?

well whatever the name and colours are, they are buggering it up. the fans are given minimal opportunity to contribute. its my understanding that this team will have 3 colours and the fans are only allowed to choose the primary colour. its my understanding the other 2 colour combinations have already been chosen by management. they have already selected 2 specific colours dependant on which primary colour was voted in.

Green is the most popular choice. Green black white or green red white could work.

Green is the most popular choice. Green black white or green red white could work.

Lets be clear here, the survey where green was the popular choice was listed on the ALeague facebook page where 95% of the voters won't follow this team. It is not the official voting site. Green still may win though. we'll see.

and the 2 secondary colours could be anything. they might not be the colours listed on the voting form. so colours like Teal and Gold could still be admitted.

 

[Baloo]

Westside Sharpies

 

[TigerForce]

Westside Storeys.

Risden is a good signing.

Terrible name. Too generalised. Sounds like a sports merchandise business.

yeah but you don't want it too specfic either. many people were pushing Wyndham Town, but that would have alienated people from other regions of the west, as well as Geelong and Ballarat
