2013 Jersey, Logo, Sponsorship Discussion

[Knightmare]

Since when have the Broncos taken their design cues from the Brisbane Roar?

Disgusting. Worthy of finding another team rolling out that Jersey. Who the f**k would want to wear that? Wouldn't be surprised to see the Broncos join the A League. Players will be asking for a release just so they don't have to wear that trash. Biggest club in the NRL and has the worst merchandise.

Now also on the Broncos store. I guess that confirms it.

What clowns decided that that jumper was a better option compared to last years? Cash grab, bloody Morons. If you have a decent design, stick with it FFS.

Broncos jersey, like the Eels white alternate is a nice design but completely wrong for the team it will represent.

 

[Saint Doc]

Too similar in design concept to the Roar jersey IMO

Well, there's a new winner for worst jersey in 2013. Can the Tigers bounce back in 2014?

It could be better but it could be a whole lot worse. Its still far better than storm, tigers, panthers etc . No numerous design features crammed into one Jersey, no annoying pointless piping.

I actually like it, it looks good on the dummy . As someone touched on before though, I'm a bit scared what is behind that right sleeve.looks yellow to me.

I don't think it it s too bad - yes it is a blatant copy of the Brisbane Roar, I reserve judgement until I see the shorts. Anything is better than what they have now.

But yes, the NRMA logo on the 'dummy' image is just way too big...........just ugly

I think the colours are inverted on the back (you can see maroon on the left sleeve).

Yeah that Broncos jersey isnt' very good.

Has it got a nickname yet? Can it be christened the sling jersey?

 

[Pierced Soul]

thank you

the missus said it looks like star trek

whoever designed and approved the jersey needs to be

maybe somehow it'll look better on the field, or maybe after a while my eyes will just adjust and denial will kick in and i'll convince myself its not as bad as the diamonds....

 

[Lockyer4President!]

Don't mind it purely because the side panels are the same colour as the jersey for once

Just found this on eBay, the seller (Goodscore) is saying that this is the home jersey for 2013. Looks like a soccer jersey to me.

Just saw it on nrl gossip on Facebook too. Hideous.

I thought they were going back to the old horse next year.

Just bit the bullet and go back to the old logo and 92/93 premiership jersey as well. By far the best. Dogs have done a decent job of it.

Apologies for reinforcing your post :roll:

:lol: Love when people try to have a go for no reason.

Broncos Online Store now has it.

Ah, double. Bugger

Looks far better on the mannequin than laid out flat or as a graphic, will reserve full judgement until we can see it in action. In an attempt to find positives out of that crap, at least it's a relatively simple design rather than crowding the jersey, and it incorporates the Broncos' colours reasonably well.

 

[chibimatty]

I like the Catalans/Pirates idea. I think it might work TBH. Reminds me more of the old Reds jersey the more I look at it

 

[beagle]

The NRL logo and the Anniversary logo look like sew on jobs though, would that happen for even a replica jersey?

Or do they do that early on in the season only? (before stuff is sorted properly?)

Retail version jerseys have sew on type logos.

The sublimated type logos are for players on field jerseys only.

I remember reading that in the NRL Operations manual.

Re: The Broncos jersey, I saw it in Peter Wynn's today.

 

[KiamaSaint]

The Broncos jersey looks like a training shirt to me.

As a Broncos supporter I actually don't mind the new jersey - sure, like most I'd prefer they went for something more traditional, but I guess they get points for trying something a bit different - and that they made a change like this for an anniversary year, where going traditional would be the safe/common option is particularly daring too...

A few observations:
- I like that it introduces more yellow onto the home jersey
- an away/inverted version should look good once they are allowed to change
- NRMA logo is massive - I also preferred when Qld NRMA had its own logo, rather than the dated-looking NSW/generic one they're using now
- colours in the NRL logo are too bright (as has been noticed on all this years jerseys)
- asymmetrical design is a bit soccer-ish, but Ill reserve full judgment until I see he whole team wearing it
- do the neck holes on jerseys get smaller each year?
- still think the 25th anniversary logo is clip art trash not at all worthy of the 25th
- part of me wonders if the 'design' was partly chosen so that the maroon-dominated logo would sit on a yellow backgrounds to make it stand out
- I'm curious to see what the back looks like (ie. does it mirror the front)

Even the diamonds jersey was better than that yellow monstrosity. Should just work around it and do as the Knights did last year and wear the heritage jersey half the time.
