2013 Jersey, Logo, Sponsorship Discussion

[Lockyer4President!]

Does anybody know if there's any truth to this being the Kangaroos jersey next year?

Deep chevrons turned into shallow chevrons so the sponsor is higher on the jersey. Cheverons shortened so that they stop before the shoulders just because of the shit template. This is a disgrace, why did CNZ get the contract if they're going to butcher it?

Why does the ARLC hate the fact that rugby league players have shoulders?

That's a sexy Roos Jersey. And thank god they got rid of that awful collar! Truly a fresh looking redesign that keeps a traditional look. Can't wait to get my hands on one!

In addition to the issues already stated. The green is too light and that stupid collar tape shouldn't stand out. Oh wait, CCC's brand recognition outweighs the pride of a national jumper.

The double V's should also be at least twice as deep.

Thank christ i bought one for this year test in Tvl if that template is indeed what they are moving to next year......

I like the actual design of the jersey for a rugby league team, but I don't think we should mess with the tradition of the kangaroos. Where did you find it anyway?

 

[Fire]

The Aussie jersey chevrons should be extended to the shoulders. I'm in the minority too in that I'm happy the collar has gone, always looked stupid/too loose (at least the way Classic did it).

p.s. f**k no to a sponsor on the jersey.

How can people not like the collar? It's a jersey, not a t-shirt.

I'm with Fire - I think collars are way out of date and look shit

 

[GAZF]

The collar on the new jersey would be fine if not for the contrasting collar tape.

 

[100%green]

Don't mind it.

FFS they killed the Roos jersey. Chevrons f**ked. No collar. W T F

Seeing as what they've done so far, probably lycra

Hopefully I can get my hands on the Australian jersey before the new ones come out to stores.

Just seen this on facebook, 45pounds? Thats $68, a whole $92 cheaper than anything we pay for footy jerseys... Have we discovered why we pay so much yet, is it similar to the issue Apple is having with the government charging more for their products through taxes or whatever..

Anyone know??

In saying all this, I think I might have to get that away jersey at that price.. Great jersey design..

I think its because we are willing to pay the high prices for our jerseys and we show our willingness by being the highest buyers of merchandise in Australian sport. Rugby League is also a more dominate sport in Australia than it is compared to the UK.

Another reason may be because those Catalan jerseys are god-awful.

 

[Clarke]

I'm sorry but that Australian jersey is just bullshit. This after all the importance the ARLC has put on the history and the image of the Chevron in our game, you think they would be able to protect our National Jersey. That's a f**king piss-take.

 

[Lambretta]

I don't mind them - the home one is pretty much Cronulla's design from the last couple of seasons in Catalans colours. The away kit isn't what I would have come up with, but it's kinda cool in its own way.
