KD. Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) The Armorial 1. of or pertaining to heraldry or heraldic bearings. 2. bearing a coat or coats of arms noun 3. a book containing heraldic bearings and devices.

BeardedHeart Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 What about Heartland Stockade as an idea? Maybe a little too tacky perhaps? Think it was made pretty clear last night that no one really wants a name with Heartland in it. I don't mind the name though. Just trying to come up with one that we aren't going to regret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake19882 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 For some reason heartland just makes me cringe. Im still leaning towards some of the 1847 related suggestions ( still love MC47 and M47 in no particular order). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF33 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Probably can't use it, but Old Melburnians This isnt the worst suggestion, except for the established local football clubs. Don't like it personally. The club isn't old, nor does it consist of 'old boys' of Melbourne Grammar (which is what the current 'Old Melburnians' is - 'Old Melbourne Grammarians'). And that's without factoring in the link that could be made with the Melbourne Football Club supporter base (rightly or wrongly, they're considered to be a bunch of old 'rah-rah' grammar boys who flee for the ski fields in their Land Rovers at the first sign of a disappointing season for their team). People are talking about specific 'try hard' things about the name, but I reckon using a name that makes it sound more historic than it really is is just as try hard as anything else. Don't mind 'The Wall', though I wonder if it's a bit generic for the club (i.e. what does it have to do with the club, or the city, specifically?). And 'The Red Wall' probably makes it sound a little bit Iron Curtainy, though maybe that's not necessarily a bad thing. I also wonder if using the colour red in the name might create issues with new recruits, both now and down the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jun Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Im bumping my suggestion lol Armorial A word that references heraldry, coat of arms etc is nice idea.

HEARTinator Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 The Depot This has something going for it. Melbourne is known for its trams and something along that line might be distinctively Melbourne like Sydney use the 'Cove'. 'Tram Depot Crew' or 'W-Class Crew' or something ...

Jimmy Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Would M47 be Melbourne 47' as well? I'd think it'd be Melbourne 1847 formally and then M47 would be used a nickname as it's far less wordy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
