    North Geelong Warriors - presumably a Croatian club, and any Croats I've met are very friendly.

    AS Magenta - because Bambi

    Only saw this thread now thanks to Omackeral posting in the soccer forum. I will be going with Arsenal for this round, iconic crest (even if some prefer the old one) and don't think the others are particularly strong.

    edit: oh we vote for 2.. I will go Osterunds then as well as that is one badass looking eagle.

    A 3-way tie at the top. This could be decided by one voter.

    Lot of Croatians in Australia. I know Mark Viduka started with another Croatian club in Melbourne before he moved to Europe.

    Geelong and Magenta. Two very nice looking logos.

    Arsenal. No bias. And I'm miserable and I want them to win *something*.

    But aside from that, it is a good crest. A f* ing big gun. Artillery for the win, even if it's the outdated direct fire concept.

    I'll go with Magenta and Bambi for the second. Cute. Just don't let Bambi near Arsenal or he'll get PTSD.

    That was a close one but it's the boys from the South Pacific going through. I actually put AS Magenta in as a filler team and they've only gone and topped the group. Brilliant :pac:

    AS Magenta and North Geelong Warriors progress.

    Wedha I like it

    Sampdoria - looks like a Mary Poppins /Sherlock Holmes mash up with a mallet sticking out of the nose.

    Kashima Antlers - nice crest

    Steau Bucharest - european champions at one point a fine crest

    Oh this ones tough.

    Love me some Steaua but crest doesn't cut it here.

    Flaming horse snake is a good concept, but it seems a bit amateur and cliparty. Sampdoria's pipe sailor is a classic, and the Kashima Antlers logo is just class. So the latter two.

    I will go Kashima Antlers for the antlers (obviously) and then Steaua Bucharest as it looks like a proper football crest. During the flags tournament I found myself voting for a lot of colourful and almost cartoonish looking flags, but I feel I could be the opposite here. Al Wehda looks way too much like a crest from a team who would play the Mighty Ducks.

    Both just seem to have a little more about them. Antlers in particular have a really clean design.
