NRL spend $250,000 on logo rebrand

The NRL has outlaid massive money on a logo rebrand, which they hope will make the game more marketable overseas.

The league has removed the gold in the two chevrons and the Southern Cross from the logo, in favour of an all green and white format.

According to The Daily Telegraph, the new logo will cost the NRL between $200,000 and $250,000 to implement.

All NRL signage, stationery, promotional gear, pull-up banners, social media, email logos and even calendars will need to be replaced with the new logo.

An NRL club official contacted The Daily Telegraph to vent his frustration at the logo change.

“They spent a disgusting amount of money changing their logo when all they have done is remove the Southern Cross stars and change it to all green," the club official told The Daily Telegraph. 

“There is a lot of money being spent on changing the logos everywhere. It’s now a simple, plain, one colour logo with two chevrons on it."

“You will notice a lot of signage around the NRL has been changing at a lot expense. I have heard they are changing all the logos in the NRL Museum and at the front desk."

“This is happening as we speak.”
