Apologies, not sure how to embed properly.

Looks like the Suns logo and jumper might be getting revamped for 2025. My eyes will be greatful for this change, any change really.

Blue & white vertical stripes with a kangaroo logo?

13 year bump. 

That kind of bump will give you nosebleeds

Remember that time when Freo were really [censored] and then some feng shooi expert said it's the jumper, stupid. And so they got a better jumper and are still [censored].

Was this the feng 'shooi' expert, @Skuit?

I think I see what happened...

You don't realise how annoying some of these media voices are until you follow a link which immediately runs at full volume at 7.15am in a tasteful and quiet specialist pathology reception room.

Also, what a fascinating bump of a thread; so long ago Jaded was still Jaded and I'm half expecting to get in an argument with Yze_Magic.

There’s nothing more tragic than when a joke loses its context…

They should just change it to Tassie devils.

Or Tassie Suns?

That'd go a long way to correcting a misguided stereotype.

I see what you did there 🤣

[Skuit 10,031]

In all seriousness, they should probably migrate their red to purple like the L.A. Lakers and just embrace a Gold Coast stereotype. Powder white on ceramic white probably doesn't stand out quite enough, but two 'suns' in a bikini would be pretty fun as a new logo. 

The locals will be lining up ahahaahaha.

It's still a rubbish jumper.

Those were the days

I wonder where Yze Magic is these days, he was the OG 💩 stirrer of Demonland 

[Skuit 10,031]

incidentally, I had a (Sri Lankan) curry and a beer at a new local restaurant last night.

Wil Powell's copped a 5 week suspension for a homophobic slur.

I think he was the bloke that had a crack at JVR on radio last year.

He might want to ease up on the verbal.

Yep, was absolutely no surprise hearing this after the jvr comments. Dude can't think.

GC Money Pits also has a good ring to it.

[roy11 4,076]

If they want a total rebrand, I still remember fondly when Gerald Healy accidentally called them the Gold (RUDE WORD) on live television - Might be a good starting point

[DistrACTION Jackson 10,729]

About time they did this. Their jersey and GC emblem is a shocker.

[Little Goffy 14,963]

Gold Coast Suns: Let's do a rebrand!

Will Powell: How about [censored]?

Gold Coast: Well, there goes our chance to affiliate with Streets Ice Cream.

 

Tell you what, five weeks is a massive hit. I'm quite comfortable with a suspension but I'm also very conscious of some of the, you know, basic concepts of effective enforcement. If the bans get too excessive it will lead players to not report or not corroborate out of anxiety of ruining someone's career. The goal has to be 100% coverage, not partial coverage with heavy-handed penalties.

Anyway, back to the rebrand;

Their song is [censored], their culture is [censored], nobody loves them, nobody even really hates them, we are all just sick of paying their rent for them while they live in a better house than we've got.

If they really want to turn things around they should try to brand themselves as a football club rather than... what even are they? A reality TV show?

A NRL ex player told me “the Gold Coast is a party town. They’ll never do any good.”

Do the song while they’re at it?!

Perhaps have the goal of making the finals first before considering a jumper change.
