Surely club colours are covered by some sort of trademark?
Didn’t cadburys obtain trademark protection for their shade of purple for example?

Surely the NRL can just say no to them!

The Broncos have been quietly (and no so quietly) appropriating the colours (and therefore branding) of the Manly Warringah team for some time now.
Carefully study their training gear and merchandise in recent times, news footage, press conferences, anything - the gold colour is less prominent or totally absent. I'm surprised our club has not made a formal complaint about it.
We've got 41 more years of history in Maroon & White versus them - it's an open and shut case.
They're probably the most arrogant club / bunch of entitled supporters in the NRL - I would love to see them be forced to back-track by the NRL on this.

Mate ... they couldn't care less about Manly ... It is the QLD SOO maroon they wish to be associated with in the minds of the two headed Queenslander's ... they're in a battle with the Dolphins in Brisbane ... not Manly.
But I agree Manly should lodge a protest with the NRL. ... hopefully with the support and backing of the Dolphins, Titans and cowboys ...

Black seems to suit them better.

Poor old bronx - no longer the powerhouse club but still believing they're entitled to the entire state of QLD. They don't even have the city Brisbane to themselves anymore, boohoo

The NRL will do zip. They are the biggest club in the game. If our club doesn’t lodge a complaint about this blatant attempted takeover of our clubs colours, then what exactly do we stand for? The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
Hey,.. I live there Manlyfan.
