Is it true that the "premiers" ones that are pre printed for the day, and lose, get sent to Africa ?

better recycled and given to people in need rather than being thrown out....

I have never bought a commemorative t-shirt and I never will
They're usually f**k ugly to start with and therefore mark you out to be an utter cretin for choosing to wear one.

The only thing I've ever seen that was decent was a plain polo shirt with the words Premiers and the year under the club badge

Good point. I bought this one two years ago when the Ravens won the Super Bowl. It's a lot less 'busy' than they usually are. I only wear it to the gym anyway.

I didn't buy one I have the same opinion. If you lose the Grand Final that Tahiti essentially becomes a "runners up" Tshirt. I'll wait for the premiers memorabilia

I used to HATE how they would slap those premiers shirts onto the players at the Grand Final siren. I think the NRL put a stop to that. I just recall images of players lifting the trophy wearing this junk piece of marketing, instead of the jersey that they played for all year.

I don't think they have, I could have sworn I've seen pics of Mitchell Pearce celebrating in one last year.

He was probably wearing it under his normal jersey and then took his jersey off cos he was errr too warm. I was going to say he was hot, but then I'd be all BunniesManupInglisallNight like.
