Does anyone actually LIKE the name "stingrays" ???

I would have thought after the death of Steve Irwin that Stingray would have been one of the names they dropped

And can you belive the AFL are seriously considering the name Gold Coast "(Life) Guards"??

How wankerish is that?

  1. all the name suck

    i like thr GC Nuggets


  2. It's not as good as Sharks but it's the best left unless they use Schoolies.

  3. there are so many mangrove swamps around the gold coast, how about the swamp foxes?

  4. I lived on the coast for a couple of years, most people are plastic fantastics, fake charlatans who rip others off, seriously, i have never come across so many shonks in business as i did on the gold coast,  Gold Coast Fraudsters would be apt.

    It will something real Yank too, you watch, why not the dolphins, even the migrating whales, 'the humpbacks' lol. They swim past every year just 50 meters off shore.

  5. i dislike the name stingrays as it has caused many problems in stabbing famous people including AFL stars, i like the sharks although them having promeblems with some other club with it, i think the name should be the Gold Coast Hammerheads, which is a breed of shark,

    thx to the caller from SEN who mentioned the name

  6. **Stingrays doesn't sound so bad, could be worse.  Life Guards just sounds stupid for a footy team!!!**

  7. i like the gold coast guards as a name.....its a change from poofy names like the swans

  8. I like the gold coast stingrays i reckon it sounds good better then life guards that just sounds stupid!

  9. i heard that one of the names that was listed as a possibility was the Gold Coast Marlins. i'd rather that than the Guards or Stingrays

  10. Stingrays for me.

    The club could use Steve Irwin's noggin

    as a logo!

  11. Stupid name and I have to agree with Caro's comments about a Stingray killing Steve Irwin (not in good taste!)

    I still think they should call them the Galahs!

  12. No! i hate the name...

    I don't think they would drop "Stingray" because if Steve Irwin, It could be honoring him..

    Haha that is a wankerish name, I don't think it will be used...but I really don't think we should be adding more teams to the AFL, I don't see the point of it, and nobody is going to support them...they already have teams!

    By the way 2518-, the swans is not a poofter name, would a poofter be able to knock someone out?

  13. I think the Stingrays isn't bad. Not great,  but better than a lot of the alternatives being through up. How about the Gold Coast Schoolies?

  14. yeah that one is cool can you belive this one iroman that is shocking i saw it on the news yesterday

  15. how about the Bindis

    thats a cool name

  16. Yeah I agree they all stink..

    I reckon wankerish is Gold Coast Ironmen, mite as well call them gladiators and sign Couta outta retirement!

    I dont 'like' stingrays but they dont give us a great array of choice.. so I guess its the better one out of them or Marlins..

  17. I like stingrays out of the five given, but i don't like it in general. does anyone know why they ruled out sharks?? that is obviously the best choose. they have got to be kidding with "guards" this QLD team is getting sadder and sadder, now just imagine the NSW team with even less names to chose from!

    BTW Sydney swans were chosen because there where so many west Australians in the team when it first started, and the swan is the state emblem of W.A (swan river)

  18. Stupid name but then again Brisbane were the Bears to start off and that is another stupid name for a football club.

  19. yer i thought that was weird but stingrays aint good either... i honestly cant think of a good name at the top of my head and im not to sure if sharks is a good idea, they should create something interesting and different to other team names of sports... maybe gold coast (something starting with g or c)

    maybe becasue brisbane are the lions, gold coast can be cheaters or sumtin like that.

  20. Sounds g*y, it's right up their with the Dockers and Swans. Gladiators woulda been better, all those Queenslanders are built like brick sh*thouses up there, must be something in the water, lol

  21. Nah i think it sucks..

    Sound like a bloody NRL team name for christ sake..

  22. I know, the names that they have shorlisted are so crappy, I liked the Sharks, regardless of whether other clubs have had that name. I also liked the suggestion of the Gold Coast Sun, that was a good one =) Out of the five considered, Stingrays is the best, but I'm not sure if I like it! The Guards is ridiculous, as is the Ironmen.

  23. very good point Zero...naming them the Stingrays is in poor taste - I hope they dont pick it!

    I think the suggestion of the Gold Coast Ironmen is hilarious...

    I like the Gold Coast Marlins

  24. i think the names in bad taste surely they can come up with something a bit better than that  lol what about the koala?????
