Someone find a suitable community icon please. Something that is recognisably Melbourne-y.

Post it here and I'll set it for the community for all to see.

Not to be contrarian, but Melbourne is more than just the city. In fact, Metropolitan Melbourne is made up of 27 cities and 4 shires. (Not to mention regional Vic residents who would likely make this community their home)

Maybe the MCG. Or.. uh.. I don't know. Someone else more creative help me out here...

What about something that takes in a bit more area?
