Preview ‘FEARLESS’ Gold Coast SUNS guernsey and branding discussions

[The Victorian]

Breaking: News going around social media that ISC are going under.

I have been hearing this for a while now

 

[Mini GF]

Our jerseys look beautiful when we are absolutely destroying WCE/Adelaide.

Yeah, the rumours were going around late last year.

Yeah, the rumours were going around late last year.

can you share where on socials is the latest?

I quite like ISC personally so sad if true

 

[Jen2310]

Just people talking about it. Apparantly they are in financial ruin. Nothing official yet.

 

[The Victorian]

Of course they would be! They spent millions on Collingwood, Broncos, Essendon, and the Roosters

 

[The Victorian]

Collingwood- End of 2021
Gold Coast- End of 2021
St Kilda- Deal unknown
Adelaide- End of 2021
Port Adelaide- Deal unknown
Fremantle- Deal unknown
Sydney- Deal unknown

There has been talk that the AFL is looking at a league wide supplier (i.e. Puma)

 

[Jen2310]

Collingwood's contract ends at the end of 2020.

Might explain why the pies CEO, Mark Anderson was spotted wearing a nike jacket with a collingwood logo...

Like the idea.
Think the city outline needs to be smaller and higher up the Guernsey to try and get rid of that lifesaver flag look.
Plus some form of "sun" angled semi circle for the base of the city outline if that makes sense.

For the back all one colour would look better.

Colours.. try more of a gold instead of yellow and darker red.

tried something a bit different, taking on your angled sun comment.
threw in a gradient one for a bit of fun too haha

Can i ask why the supplier matters? I fee like we've had atleast 5 and the jumper has stayed the same the whole time. Club would decide re-designs surely?

club decides re-designs, with suggestions from the manufacturer i believe.
suppliers matter i reckon mainly due to commercial gain/$$$. a high profile brand like adidas, nike or puma can present greater brand awareness and promotional deals for players. the bigger the manufacturer, the potential for a longer and more lucrative deal, i'm sure a lot of clubs would love some continuity and safety in a manufacturing deal right now. chopping and changing every couple of years isn't that great, but it's generally what happens with the smaller clubs.

Love the set. Could almost add a blue "wave" under the city outline could look ok.
Stick by the only one colour back with opposite coloured numbers comment.

Puma should be number 1, Nike should be higher just because that Futura italic font is cleaner than a Jack Lukosius kick out

Have you seen how Nike treated Carlton?

yeah but futura font

I’m standing by the need to use the Gold Coast surf vibe on our guernseys.
If ISC do in fact go under I’d love to see a quick silver, rip curl, Billabong etc.

oh and I want the wave back on the guernseys, even without the logo, I want the wave back.

Puma started supplying for the nab league this year aswell didn't they?

Care to elaborate from a designer standpoint?

You could be completely right, But I've been begging for it for near on a decade

Is Dynasty looking to come into the AFL? they've already got a few NRL teams and the Queensland reds if I'm not mistaken
