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

For NRL players, Penrith is a party town.

    My guess is that they've finally decided to grow up and go with a more traditional style guernsey just like the Bears, Port and Dockers eventually did. They'll at least look like a football team.

    Umm..  looks like I was wrong. They somehow made it worse. Believe the reveal is this Friday morning so not 100% confirmed.

    Couple of things in that report:

    * It's not 'an oval'; it's a footy, surely!

    * it's not a setting sun; the shimmering bottom half means it's a rising sun, over the Pacific.

    Credibility points deductions.

    Still an amateurly run club, kinda like ourselves when CS released the MFC shield with 20 million things happening in it.

    That alleged new symbol is clearly just an infrared scan of an egg being cooked. Only thing I can't decide is if it is a side view of a poached egg or a top view of a fried egg.

    To reference an ancient egg related public health ad, "This is your football code on marketing."

    I actually quite like it. Doesn't try too hard. I immediately saw the "rising" sun reflection on the water. Also gives me Commodore 64 vibes lol

    I suppose so but you don't see too many clubs running round with that kind of branding. Eg. Could you imagine Essendon running around with a giant 'B' on all their apparel? Or Collingwood with 'M' etc

    Rather than a rebrand , I'd rather they disband, just in time for Tassie keep it at 18 teams

    I've been saying for a while, one of three things will happen to the Suns - either fold, merge or relocate.  They're simply not viable as they are.  As for the new logo, I reckon the Year 7 Visual Communication Design class at my school could come up with something better.

    I know what you mean - although I think the Giants may have a G on one of their tops? Anyway, looks like they’ve tried to incorporate lots of things into one design. Looks like the logo of a 70s American cable news channel.

    I reckon Collingwood should go with a giant C.

    Always though the "Suns" was such a lame name. They should merge with Southport Sharks, rebrand as the Gold Coast Sharks and use the Sharks guernsey but in red & yellow.

    That would make sense, so obviously it's never going to happen

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
