2012 Jersey & Sponsorship Discussion

[Cumberland Throw]

So Melbourne are wearing what looks like Shane Warne Foundation , in the place of Crown today...

Can you not promote a casino in NZ ??? or is Crown a partner in SWF ??

 

[Flapper]

I doubt its a casino thing considering Skycity is also a casino. Must be a crown partner or something

Check the page before and it is discussed.

So it is a gambling thing, how bloody f**king stupid.

I have no problem with it, it's NZ law plain and simple (personally I'd like to see it become law here too, too much talk + promotion on gambling in Australia). Remember a number of years ago when the Kangaroo's played France, we had to change our sponsor to Movember because alcohol advertising to some degree is banned in France.

Knights jumpers today look good...simple & uncomplicated.

Very Bulldogs-esque IMO that away strip. Should be red shorts tbh.


As for the Storm Shane Warne thing - as discussed earlier, NZ gambling law prevents OVERSEAS companies from promoting gambling/betting in NZ. NZ-based companies are fine.

Rabbitohs said on their twitter that they will be doing a women in league strip

Not sure how it looked on tv but was very clearly Newie to my eyes. Would not have associated it with the Doggies.

Interesting to see whether it's a version of their 3rd clash strip (the white with sash) or they use the famous bars including a pink colour.

Mostly white and blue with minimal red... didn't look like it?

v Bulldogs would be the ideal time to do it - celebrate the return to Wollongong AND avoid a clash with the Bulldogs famous blue double v :sarcasm:

My gripe with it is the shorts should be red where the white stripe is. The Blue shorts with the thick white strip is not good for the Knights...

Noticed Roosters had a new sponsor where the manufacturer used to be, and ISC was reverted to the top of the shoulders (similar to how Souths have it)...

And Newcastle, and Parra. This sponsor arrangement is slowly creeping into all teams, the NRL jersey becomes more and more of a shill every season.

To be fair, they've been doing this in the UK Super League for a while now... It's worse over there.
