2013 Jersey, Logo, Sponsorship Discussion

[Godz Illa]

The good news for Parra is that ugly jersey won't scare Israel Folau off. He'll wear a tank top and tight shorts if you pay him enough

Just found this on eBay.

Don't know about $1,500 but still it's pretty snazzy.

They've been trying to flogthat jersey off for 6 months or so... started at 2000 for the first one i think and slowly dropped asking price...

Geez those Parra jerseys are disgusting.

This under the collar sponsor stuff is bullshit, leave it for the jersey manufacturer for f**ks sake.

 

[beagle]

Yikes... This is different!!!!

Sigh...2 years of this.

 

[LatK7]

That Parra strip is a shocker...

 

[Henson Park Hornets]

After having another look at the Parra away jersey, I don't mind it. I know it's very different to what they've had in the past, but the sponsor works well and is integrated within the design. It's a solid design that hasn't got flashes or swooshes all over it.

Both the eels jerseys look awesome especially the training jersey.

 

[GAZF]

Its reasonably well executed, save for the yellow on the shoulders, but it just doesn't say Eels to me. There's absolutely no reason to have a white jersey when yellow contrasts with blue.

Agreed, looks more like a Warrington jersey than the Eels.

Yep, I'm with you there. It looks very tacky. Wasn't happy when souths and the knights started doing it last year, now the majority of teams are doing it.

new Wigan jersey. Nice. Apparently Wigan are in a cycle of two traditional jerseys and an experimental one next year... This one is the second one, last years was cherry and white with narrow hoops.

This is how to do a "Blood and Bandages" jersey, Dragons could learn from this.

Manly need to get rid of the V and put a thick butcher stripe above and below their sponsor.

Also, not getting the hate for the Parramatta jersey, I really like it.

The new NRL logo looks good on the jerseys too and is growing on me.

 

[The Great Dane]

I don't mind the new Eels jersey it's a good jersey just not for the Eels.

 

[hrundi99]

I like the concept of the Eels jersey I just think the wide stripes are too wide.

 

[ShaneO85]

I'm surprised i actually quite like the new parra jersey, it looks much better than i expected.

I, along with the vast majority, hate Manly with a passion but that away strip could look so much better if they just lowered the sponsor and ISC finished off the V properly.

 

[deanjrobinson]

With regards to the Eels jersey using the corporate NRL logo rather than the premiership version, is it a possibility that only the actual on-field jerseys will have the premiership logo and everything else (training, replicas etc) will just use the corporate logo?

 

[Cheesie-the-Pirate]

According to club email:

1. Dragons 2013 jersey to be officially released on Monday.
2. Always confirmed as sleeve sponsors for the next three years.

Ours though integrates well with the rest of the jersey and sponsor colour scheme. Unlike the green 'nib' on Newcastle.

Also is that 1st Parra one an away/alternate jersey?

 

[DFC005]

Alternate according to the website.
