Hmm.. I'll reserve judgement.

The last time heritage jerseys were based on these, they added a lot of unnecessary side-panel stripes & watermarks - which distracted from the heritage aspect IMO.

...

Oh, and the V on both designs was not quite the same as the original designs...

Sorry should of been clearer. Not based but replicated.

Yeah, they are exact replicas of their respective jerseys, no added elements at all.


Two heritage designs I'd LOVE to see the tigers use are these...

Wests 1908 jersey (something different for a Magpie heritage):

The tigers have already done that jersey, it was their 2010-2011 Magpies heritage.

My main issue with heritage jerseys is that we end up with the situation like last season when Wests came out in a jersey representing the 1950's against Souths who were in their "Minties" jersey from the 1980's. I mean, where's the heritage in that.....?

One of the best Heritage jerseys was the Tigers version of Western Suburbs Magpies with the horizontal panel a long the front. The Panthers brown chocolate soldiers with the white V and the Cronulla jersey everyone recognises with them are other good designs, the majority of other teams are pretty much shit.

Most non-Sydney teams can't design a proper heritage jersey to save themselves.

I don't think they are actually changing their name.

I think it will only be used in club material and at games, e.g. the ground announcer saying "ladies and gentlemen, please welcome your Kaspersky Sea Eagles".

Everyone else will still call them by their actual name.

Exactly same as it has always been. Hence I don't see why it even needs a mention.

Does it really matter?

It'll never catch on with fans and the media. Manly will always be referred to as Manly by fans and the media. How many times do you hear fans/media call the Broncos the NRMA Insurance Broncos?




The Toyota Cowboys?
The Iselect Titans?

i was referring to the website headers in my browser. although you may be right i might have missed the tits.

I'll be the arsehole and say that its not THAT accurate. I can understand that ISC is pushing their template (which isn't particularly bad compared to other certain companies) and collar but why does that f**king black rabbit need to be on a heritage jersey? If they used the 80's/90's logo it would be so much better. I also think that the stripes could be shifted down so that the top stripe coincides with the chest logos and the bottom strip occurs that the hem.

i agree on the black rabbit looking shizen but disagree on the hoop and logos. i think it looks better in the modern remake with the logos fitting neatly on the green hoop. imho.

so the away jersey with a silver/grey lower v section from the home jersey?

massive meh... not a fan of the silver and would think the wcc would be the perfect venture to use the gold colour that has been lost from their designs

I'd like to see a variation with thinner stripes (and more of them), closer to the 1908 design:

Sure, it's a minor difference but looks better to my eyes..

And that Balmain heritage I'd like to see is this (from team photo)
