Great post WF2006. I've been concerned as to the 'purpley reds', especially when they play against really red teams like Crusaders and Lions. Qld Reds aren't red, they're maroon or crimson. We can't have the Maroon's tag tho cos that's the NRL's Qld State of Origin team.
With the Reds logo as the koala , I feel its better if the team is called the Crimson Koalas, or if that's too woossy, then the Krimzon Koalas would do the same job. (Not that any koalas are red or crimson?! unless knocked on road!)
There's an increasing amount of real red on the Reds training/casual gear, along with the maroon/crimson, and the combination is puke. Its a colour clash that isn't needed by the 'Queensland Krimzon Koalas' or the Krimzons.
I'd prefer Krimzons or Crimsons to Purpley Reds ! (or Mauves) or Reds
I'll try this as a new thread (yes) and see if any responses. Thanks KRed & WF for the idea, from an exile in Qld.
