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.  

Apparently “Sharks” was too offensive and aggressive. Not even joking.

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

    Never forget the Blazers!

    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 heard they were approached but declined. Something about ruining their reputations when  they will soon hit the job market.

    A football team adopt an aggressive moniker ... outrageous for a competive, contact football code!

    The Sharks were good enough for East Freo in the WAFL. 

    According to their logic, MFC should have remained the Fuchsias instead of become the feared Demons and going on a 30+ year reign of 10 Premierships ... no room for aggression in this sport 😁

    I also recall what Ethan is saying about using the sharks. That ridiculous argument was put forward back in the the inception of the suns. Was then, and still is, bewildering to me.

    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

    The D's?

    Are sharks more or less aggressive than lions? Tigers?  Devils? Swooping annoying magpies? Asking for a friend.  Even swans can have their moments of aggression.

    Seeing as more people die of skin cancer each year I think the Suns is the scariest of the team names!

    No issue with the colours, but the jumper design is pox.

    And that stupid looking logo that looks like a lifesaver has been spaghettified by crossing the event horizon of a  black hole. Who was the idjit who approved that? Not even sure they still use it.

    Rebranding: The act of making some people feel better, but actually achieving nothing. 
    Which is how Gold Coast have always operated 

    Every time i see them play they are wearing a different crappy jumper…
     

    Meh….

    Nothing wrong with a rebranding per se. They’ll now have a heritage guernsey to wear. The new logo, if legit, is putrid though, in my opinion.

    I thought it was due to Southport being the Sharks and it alienating the other non-Southport supporters up there? Or was that just about them being Southport and not Gold Coast? I may be getting my wires crossed.

    Sharks is a great name for a footy team, if they knocked it back due to being too aggressive then that tells you all you need to know about the spivs running the league.

    Their home strip looks like a training jumper and there away, looks like West Coasts.

    They should call themselves the Gold Coast Bland

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
