New French Jersey

[East Coast Tiger]

:x

Aaarrgghh. They suck. I was looking forward to getting one at the WC but I don't want one like that. I want a traditional one.

 

[screeny]

I like them a lot. Good effort the FFRXIII...

i know i hate them new canterbury ones, hopefully they bring out a normal one, something akin to the NSW origin jersey from game 1 would be nice.

 

[deluded pom?]

Too many flashes here there and everywhere for me.

Is that first pic a guy called Trent Clayton (former Panthers/NRL player)??? WTF is he doing playing for France???

 

[Nuke]

I'm gonna ask a question here, but I don't really expect an actual answer (I'm more likely to see replies of theories and ideas instead).

What the hell is up with that stupid crooked collar thing? I noticed the NSW jersey for Origin II had it too, except it was the same colour as the surrounding jersey so it wasn't so noticable. Is this Canterbury trying to be unique and 'cool', or is there an actual reason for it?

 

[roughyedspud]

it's canterbury's fault...


i'm sure they are great to wear while playing...but as a supporter i could'nt imagine wearing one...

ccc has had it on most of their international rugby jumpers for a while.... i am sure they have a good explanation for it (gimic)
personally i think that crooked collar thing is rubbish
apart form that the jumper looks ok

Hey guys, hate it as much as you like, but buy the thing, it's helping French RL in the long run and that's what we all want, and the poor buggers need our help at this time, in the future it could become a classic.

He's been living there and playing in the LER for more than 3 years, hence qualifies on residency.

Personally, I love the jersey. Looks great. Pity it didn't make them play better.

 

[KalgoorlieRed]

I really like it, but its one of the silly skin tight ones and I'm XXL, so a XXXXXL would suffice!

Where can I get one?

 

[the beavers]

can someone please explain the wtf the white dots on the back are all about
they are on the wallabies jersey too

 

[KalgoorlieRed]

Well, I emailed the French RL Fed and they responded! WOW!

But not good news as the size I want wont fit as the ones they have tend to be the players fitting but some of you may want to try anyway so here goes:

In French:

Well done KalgoorlieRed, I hope the FFR13 realizes there is a decent sized market out there for the National and club gear from France.

I wish they'd finish the translation of their site though, it's a real pain in the behind.

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

Nice to know they're available for International buyers... not that I'd buy one. I'd hate anyone to think I was French...

Or, worse, a Roosters fan...

The French are great, and anyway, people would think you were treiziste, not merely French, arguably the greatest honour known to man.
