2011 Jersey & Sponsorship Discussion

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Any news on the heritage strip?

Words fail to describe how bad those WT's jerseys are.

If they wanted to create a new identity why not stick to something tasteful like these?

a better-ish shot of the new Knights strip.

The Knights logo looks like it's right on the shoulder rather than the chest

 

[Dragonwest]

god damn our jumpers are sexy!

Bring back the hooped socks n B&B for the heritage strip and we have found perfection!

I love this one, there's a bit of the magpies and a bit of balmain there and it actually looks good. Unlike just about every jersey they've had this decade.

Looks much better IRL than it did in the mockups.

I have to agree with this. I'm not as stone cold against them as I was, but they still could've done better.

That white side patch on the home is extremely unflattering. I might have to get liposuction before I wear one.

I'm sorry, but that is f**king hideous ...

That red piping around the shoulder area on the knights jersey is just weird. What is its purpose?

I think it's supposed to be hip and funky.

I heard it was supposed to make the jersey look like armour, fail imo. Can't decide which is worse out of the Knights and Tigers.

Sort of related to this thread...on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VVXjGwSq80&NR=1&feature=fvwp is a 7 minute clip of Easts tries from 1975 - it's good to watch if no other reason than to see a lot of old club jerseys - was particularly surprised to see names of players on the back of jerseys (Cronulla).

How hard is it to make a decent jersey that incorperates heritage but forms a new identiy!

I did this in PS in 2mins flat using the old Western Suburbs jersey.

The problem is the highly paid jersey designers are completely out of touch and have no idea what the public wants. That's why I'd love to see the NRL force the clubs to let it's members vote on a jersey, it would keep the shockers (Tigers/Knights) out. The vast majority of fans prefer heritage jerseys and simple jerseys to some of the vomit on a jersey designs we've seen.

I feel sorry for Tigers and Knights fans...

 

[Deacon]

Thats wat happens when you have a sh*t Kit Sponsor, X-Blades cant do anything right

 

[Rapture_Shark]

those tigers jerseys would be alot better with out those wave/ curve things on them. thats wast makes it look bad

And for that matter - Dragons Main & alternate 2011:

That's what I call traditional jersey design.
