Crest
Traditionally Wests are referred to as the "mud and bloods", due to the design of their jersey, however the use of this nickname has become rarer since the introduction of the Panther logo in 1968. In the early 1980s a rebranding move by the Queensland Rugby League saw all BRL clubs adopt a logo with a stylised Q, similar to the QRL logo used at the time, however by 2002 Wests had reverted to using the older club logo on their jerseys.

Famous quotes containing the word crest:
“What shall he have that killed the deer?
His leather skin and horns to wear.
Then sing him home.
Take thou no scorn to wear the horn,
It was a crest ere thou wast born;
Thy father’s father wore it,
And thy father bore it.
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn
Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
