Wow, very surprised this poll is even. Cotton with 3/4 sleeves and a v-neck collar all the way imo, as a fan who wants maximum wear and comfort while supporting their team.
I bought a random cotton style jersey from a sports store in the city in what must've been about 1995, and the jersey is still going strong despite a hell of a lot of wear and travels overseas in it as well. It's still my favourite choice of jersey for casual wear, even though it's not strictly representative of my league team's design.
I've only got one "plastic" modern jersey, and it doesn't keep me warm when required, and doesn't even feel good to the touch (on the inside or outside). I have retired it to the cupboard, and won't be buying another one. I forked out for one of the heritage centenary cotton jersey's last year instead - that will get me by for more than few years I reckon.
The NRL have lost my jersey merchandising buck by veering away from cotton. Who cares what modern materials the players wear - give the supporter the equivalent in quality cotton, v-neck collar and sleeved design!
