My eyes hurt:eek:
Number 4 would be best but i also really like 8 and 11 it's just a shame they decided againts the marlins.
Without a name #4 is the way to go just needs a touch of the blue!!
I can't wait to see the rest of our merchandise.

I like number 11, but remove the white band separating the yellow top from the red bottom. Don't need it.
#13 is the goer, i reckon. 14, 1 and 2 aren't too bad either..

I like 12 ... although it is a conservative choice. The one with the wave from the Geelong league is pretty good if they want to go for something radical.

Should be Gold Coast Sharks or Marlins for sure, Not just Gold Coast or how will you sell merchandise?, GC on a jumper would be too boring. Maybe they are keeping the naming opening incase of a relocation?

No 1 or 5 using the lifeguard flag is a winner.
I'm up here on hols and that flag is literally everywhere - everytime I see it I think of GC17.

2 or 12.
I simply love the interest everyone shows in the GC17 bid however what we now know about the bid committee is that they ignore suggestions and put their faith in the cafe latte marketing set that beleive their goal is to inovate while pushing aside the opinions of the potential fan base. We didn't get a nickname or a decent mascot, maybe they'll decide that Gold Coast FC will buck tradition and wear mesh singlets and bike shorts...who knows?

All too busy in my opinion, the best jumpers are two colours of basic design. as evidence I submit
Good
North
Pies
Cats
Dons
Tigs
Bad
Port too busy too many colours
Freo see above
the old Eagles jumper from a couple of years ago
the poos and wees when they have the mainly blue with diamond shaped yellow and brown just hidious
In other words two colours in a simple design is the right way to go, just because modern tech allows for more elabirate design doesn't mean you should adopt it. in this case less is more.
Yellow jumper CGFC (links as per the Carlton jumper) in Maroon with Maroon shorts. simple, queenland and instantly recognisible.

you dont think that might be a bit too much like brisbane bears? plus you have to remember this club is a new franchise trying to look "exciting" as they've said, carltons jumpers hardly exciting.
plus i think both west coasts jumpers look good at the moment

Not gonna happen matey
They've already said they are going to buck tradition and go for something "sexy" :o
But if they go for something like number 2, it should be alright. :thumbsu:
hmm 11's nice but it needs a brighter orange and a blue instead of black and number 8 would be a better clash for it.
are we allowed to combine 2 designs for a home and a clash?
well, i did anyway

Not trolling here, but the proposed colours are very simmilar to the dogs... wouldnt be surprised if they are shafted to the GC in a Fitzroy/Bears style

12 and 13 look like they could be a goer, they may be a bit bulldogish, but Adelaide got away with something similar re Geelong. No 3 looks a bit like West Coast, oddly enough.
Maybe they only took suggestions from GC supporters not people with vested interests.
It's hard not to be cynical after hearing some in the bid committee had never seen an live AFL game. High flyers rise and fall on the Gold Coast like the tide. Rather than being hijacked by those who think they'll make a dollar or two, we need people with serious football cred or we will struggle. Engaging the supporters is vital but so far they've failed. Send us Sheedy to teach them something about the heart of the game. Please.

Got to admit that I like the idea of a two colour design as well. As an ex-pat Queenslander, I'm missing the excitement of another team joining the AFL from my home state. But I also agree with some of the comments on the 'baggage' about trying to make a new team without all the reminders of the 'bad news' bears.
Further, if you go with a yellow jersey, there's always the opening for those magpie supporters to use the 'you're yellow' (a coward) chant at the point in the game that 'Joffa' indicates that the match is over...
Got to ask- why on earth are they planning to go with a mix of red, blue and yellow? They're already being used to death in this comp. Why not use ochre/gold (for sand/Gold coast), olive-green (for the fertility and symbolism of the hinterland), silver (for prosperity) and Sky-blue (The weather)?
If they want a radical design (that doesn't date), they just need to keep the design timeless. OK, so they don't want stripes and a yoke to the colours. So, have the complete back panel in Silver, and the front in olive green. On the left breast of the jersey print Gold (on top of) Coast in ochre on sky-blue, and do the same on the back for the numbers. If you really want to make the jersey more stylised, you could always have a tall sand dune crossing the front and back panels under the arms.
In any case, this sort of jersey would be simple and attractive, and instantly recognisable.
Sure, it's four colours, but then again, you could always take the Freo road and produce some killer 'tartan' tie designs as well.
Cheers!

Used your designs as a base. was on the GC the last week and thought the guards flag is iconic.
Its the flag against a blue sky and white sandy beach

i think 5 would look good with the GC having white following the writing around on the jumper... can kind of see what im trying to get at. maybe someone whos a wiz at this stuff can do a better one :)
Number 4 would be best but i also really like 8 and 11 it's just a shame they decided againts the marlins.

Yes, I also like 4 and 8.......needs to be colours and design completely different to any in use now..
1 or 13 for me. Some good designs in there though, well done to those who created them !!

They have 2 years to come up with something - why would you release all your big attractions 2 years too early ?
I don't disagree with that but they asked for suggestions, people voted on their web site so naturally the locals here thought there would be one selected and therefore announced at the launch. It was the hot topic around here and generated hype any marketing team would die for. Most people now have no idea what is happening because they said the name would 'evolve'. Could someone explain what that means because we are left scratching our heads. I like the name 'Suns':thumbsu: but happy with anything except the 'Ironmen'.:thumbsd:
P.S. Like your jumper except it needs blue on the back so it doesn't look like the Swans.:)
9 would instantly make GC my second team

personally i find 1 and 4 a bit plain and they dont really fit GC17's idea of "exciting" and "sexy"
i think this is what they'd prefer...

I really like number one....the front of it looks like the top of a beer in a pilsner glass...its got my vote

I'm a fan of Mero's design, a couple of them look really good though. My idea (and a pity that I'm pretty well computer illiterate so I couldn't make this one) would be a Bulldogs style jumper with the Gold being the dominant colour, white the colour in the mid region circular sash and a black marlin or stingray in their. Though I guess with the colours already decided that'd have to be blue in the middle with a red marlin which would look rather gruesome.
I like number 1 the best, ones like the chequered guernsey are just ugly

17 Dec 2008, 11:44
Is it true that the GC colours are going to be Blue Red and Gold? As a South Aussie I don't think it can be considering that is our State colours. Number 6 is by far the best guernsey but instead of orange perhaps incorporate some maroon. Got to have some queensland in there. The 1st jumper looks like the swans top but with yellow instead of white??
