2009 Jerseys/Playing Strips, Sponsors, Logos etc

Yeah I know choppies, I just dont rate reeboks supporter gears, or their designs generally. Will be interesting to see what they come up with though.

 

[parra-matters]

at wholesale reebok are 40% higher in price.

Adidas own/are Reebok remember. So just changing from one brand to another.

Que?

 

[LESStar58]

Hopefully Storm stay with KooGaa for a while. And we are good for them too. Knights are good for the brand as well seeing as they are relatively unknown as sportsgoods/rugby jersey suppliers here.

 

[LESStar58]

They are in administation and are trading out of debt.
They are very confident they ride it out.

Oh, I see...

 

[Timmah]

parra-matters am I right in saying the 'Dogs are sticking with x-Blades for a few seasons now? Their products are good quality IMO, liking the range too. Question then becomes whether we tinker with the design given our new logo in 2010.

 

[beave]

I reckon the dogs should go to a more 80's-90's design with the V like this

Yes Timmah, as far as I know they are staying with X-Blades (Kos sports) for a while. Supply was a issue for them with Nike and that hasn't been the case with X-Blades.

Oh I know... our 2008 jerseys weren't in stock until about this time last year, f**king atrocious. 2009 and IIRC the jerseys were ready by early Feb.

 

[parra-matters]

yeah i ordered some in march and got them in 3 days.

You might be in the know on this... I ordered a Blues Origin polo a few weeks back and got called back by the store I ordered it from saying they were no longer manufacturing it... am I right to assume they're manufacturing the versions of the same merch with Aussie on it instead of Wizard?

 

[Choppies]

As for Reebok being more expensive. Umbro are owned by Nike and on average Umbro gear is more expensive than Nike gear. IE Euro Football jerseys etc. Just a way for Nike and Adidas to squeeze out more money from the consumer.

No not til next year, i questioned Classic sportswear when i got my NSW jerseys in because they had Wizard on them but all the point of sale signs that came with them had Aussie and they said that Aussie had taken over sponsorship but it was too late to change production as most of it was already produced and Aussie said they could run with Wizard on the jerseys, polos and caps for this series. If Aussie wanted it changed they would have had to play Classic for the stock already produced.

I wish Penrith would wear either the licorice all-sorts or their 80s design...

I have heard that the licorice allsorts jersey will re-appear for a one off match against Canberra, to commemorate the 1991 GF. Not this year, but maybe next year...

I know KooGa are trying to have at least one team in KooGa gear in every major state / national competition in all sports. They contacted my club a couple of months ago, and we've decided to go with them for season 2010 at least. In fact, our Under12's team at the last minute required new jerseys about this time, so we quickly designed up some jerseys for them, and KooGa have made them. I am yet to see them for myself, but have been told they are look and feel awesome.

I rate KooGa quite highly at the moment (and not just because they make really good supporter gear for Newcastle). CCC I've lost a bit of a liking for since they introduced that stupid crooked collar and the body lines things.

Oh my....

I didn't know about the Nike/Umbro thing. Kinda explains why Nike have been making Glasgow Celtic jerseys for a while now...

Hope you have more luck than my SL team. They sent the red and white shirts that had a nice pink tinge to them! Had to send the whole stock back for a replacement.

The quality and material of Kooga is good but their supporter gear is poor imo and features their logo with far more prominence than the clubs!

I finally found the pic of what our away jumper should be.


On a side note I love this logo on www.gazzaf.tx

Manly are the big losers here... Reebok to ISC. Titans would be happy with Adidas, and although Dragons supporters might not want Reebok, they're still better then ISC and Canterbury
