Never thought there would actually be a rebrand, that crap XB spewed out when they got the contract was typical announcement stuff. A cheap as chips manufacturer like XB were never getting their hands on the rebrand for an AFL run club.

Bartel is currently overseas sourcing materials and ideas for the new kits and will fly to the Gold Coast throughout the season to speak to the players about their design preferences.

"Hey guys, how about we, uh, flatten the logo, and, uh, yeah, that'll do."
 
The Gold Coast Suns' shit jumper is the best meme this board has had in a long time. They're like the calamity kid at school who no one hates but he continually threatens to make a knob of himself when he keeps rocking up with a nail file 'pocket knife' and a home phone as his new mobile.
 
It's the second year the Suns have used dark grey as their secondary training colour. I hate X Blades and they could just be lazy, but most manufacturers play with off-field stuff to add colours and ship more merch. The Suns have generally kept to their actual club colours but it's a bit strange to use a different colour for the second straight season. There were some rumours on the Gold Coast page that the red and grey Demons-like yoke with the yellow outline separating the two parts was going to be the next home jumper.

Which is probably even worse than the current strip because it's such a done design, grey is a boring colour, and it makes them basically like a sort of GWS Giants (which is fitting considering they also now look like a sort of Brisbane Lions). Plus grey and red is ugly. Who knows.
 
tbf I always assumed the 'rebranding' comment was referring to the fact that they just ran with the same BLK designs/templates that were already good to go for 2017, because they didn't have time to come up with and produce their own designs.
 
Great satirical press release from GC there.

not a bad one, since there's not really any blue. giggle, 3/10

okay, that's funnier. S****** - 8/10

snort - 10/10
I didn't even read that.
There's less blue in the GC logo than there is in the AFL logo.
