2013 Tigers alternate:

 

[GAZF]

You sure its not a training jersey?

 

[innsaneink]

Advertised as West Tigers 2013 Alternate Jersey Adults

Could be a pre season jumper

 

[beave]

Its probably the best tigers jersey in years......... Which isn't really saying much but at least it's a start.

You don't know what you're talking about. The red V on the Reebok jerseys are exactly the same width as they were on the old Classic jerseys. I have both and just checked.

Ok I'll rephrase that then. It seems too thin. There is a hell of a lot more white between the V and the collar then there used to be. Maybe it's the tight fit jerseys and no collar thing that's happening these days. Either way it looks shit house to me

Training jerseys tend not to have the NRL badge on them.

The reason it seems that way is probably because the V has a steeper angle and the white sponsor's box was moved higher up to where the two sides of the V meet. That is why you can now see the V's point below the sponsor. But it was Adidas who made those changes to begin with. Reebok have only moved the sponsor slightly further up. So if you don't like it, Reebok really isn't who you should be blaming.

Adidas own Reebok

2013 Tigers alternate:

Would be better without the claw marks, but much better than recent Tigers jumpers.

 

[Perth Red]

2013 Tigers alternate:

Boring. Surely the point of an alternate is to make sure it is totally different? Which opposition would the Tigers home jersey clash with and would this look much different?

Yes I know. What does that have to do with anything? The two operate independently.

Did you fail to notice the term "tend not to" in my post?

Did you fail to notice that there is now a precedent set for next year? Could be either since the Sharks and Eels are kitted by Blades. There's no sleeve sponsors but there is a jock tag (Sharks don't have one but Eels do).

Purely another gouge item....like this years probably only used for trials and training

:?

Maybe my eyes are funny, but they look quite different.

 

[Lockyer4President!]

I think it's actually damaging the game by the WT board refusing to use two of the most famous jerseys in Aus sport and instead coming up with this absolute junk.

That's uggers. Surely even the Airds and Claymore ferals wouldn't be caught dead in that.

Without the claw marks its basically a plain white shirt - surely its just a pre-season jersey that was labelled wrong by nrlstore (its also no longer up on nrlstore, but the 2013 training shirts are)

 

[innsaneink]

Thankfully it was used only the one time in a trial V Roosters, and the privacy of training
