You joke, but I think this is the reason why Gold Coast probably won't move to a more, aesthetically pleasing deeper shade of red, as it's too close to the other team in the state. Their realistic best move imo would be to move to a yellow/gold base and own it, they'd be the only team other than Hawthorn.

This is essentially what Woodville-West Torrens ended up doing in the SANFL and it was a good move IMO considering that most teams were already blue or black. Their yellow jumper/blue shorts look really stands out.
GC could do something similar with a yellow jumper/red shorts combo and they’d really only need a blue kit for games against Hawthorn and GWS.

But that would mean we don't get to wear our bears colours

A mostly-yellow clash jumper is fine, but as a main it sucks. Woodville-West Torrens is awful, and I wish they would return to a mostly blue or green main jumper with the yellow as a clash only.

I disagree. Yellow/gold can work really well as a main identity, just look at Dortmund or Norwich City. Just need the right shades and proportions (of both gold and red) to make it work.
I had a look at those teams & I'll hold to my view for now, but if GC manage to come up with a pleasing gold jumper I'll happily concede the point.

Not soon enough.
Adelaide had one of my favourite logos in the 90s.

As I've always said the crap logo doesn't look as crap if it has something else going on around above or behind it.
Agreed, I don’t mind the logo but it’s not good enough to be the sole focus of the jumper

New GC logo shadow drop?

Doubtful.
Nah, Box Hill have always done weird logos and gradients with their graphics such as :
Needs to be even lighter shade of blue, looks too much like Fitzroy or South Australia state jumper.
How about a yellow or gold background instead, with the V in red?
yeh it is drifting there, maybe filling the 'board' helps... they have good base colours, its just about the combo..

Yuck. It's like an AI destroyed SA SOO guernsey.
so we have this line in our club song
We are one in the red, gold and blue
i am all for dropping the blue and just trying to find a design which works with red and gold, or red and yellow
so maybe instead of
We are one in the red, gold and blue
it can be
We are one in gold and red stripes for you
and we do the classic coll/north/hawks stripes in gold and red
