    Always liked the Norfolk Island flag, so it gets my vote.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    Norfolk Island, it's rather simple and green, maybe not so flag like, but somehow I like it.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,256 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    I'm not quite sure what the other thing is but Norfolk Island is plain, simple and relatively elegant in comparison.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Norfolk Island its basically the Nigerian flag with a tree added but the other one is just strange


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Norfolk Island because I havent a clue what the other one is


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,692 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Norfolk - its a bit plain but it's a nice crispy clean & fresh looking flag


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,507 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    Norfolk Island

    Simple but the more elegant looking

    It's a depiction of a type of headgear called an upe worn in Bougainville.

    Overseas UK Territory? Brexit means Brexit.

    Sandaun as a result (also it's a much nicer flag :P )

    Sandaun, the blue and yellow bit is a nice addition to the PNG flag.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,726 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Sandaun. Red and black are nice on a flag


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Sandaun because it lacks a union jack


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,692 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Pitcairn I actually really like that flag! Something very solid & strong looking about it

    Will take a break here as we're ten matches deep. Great start and response I have to say, so thanks everyone for that!

    Interesting side note, I wasn't fully sure if Papua New Guinea was considered Oceania or Asia so had a look and it fit the bill. I thought I might get a few more provinces out of it. Turns out it has a whopping 22 of them, which brought me up to a perfect tournament number of 64! Also, some of there efforts are amazing and interesting. I could definitely see the winner coming from there.

    Northern Mariana Islands, Victoria is even more unimaginative than the rest of the Aussie states we've seen so far.
