Oh bugger

Just realised the replica of the Storm batman movie jersey was their new away jersey

Well on the bright side it's a massive improvement on lasts years effort and thankfully they have got a cracker for the home jersey.

Not quite a replica of the Storm jersey

Knights 2013 home jersey in the flesh, yet to see anyone wear the 2013 away




Changing the collar and fixing the mismatching shorts sidepanels has catapulted the Knights into my top 3 for looks this year.

If anything the huddersfield jersey would have made a better storm jersey thann the batman one. Same colour palette, more relevant design for the storm. tbh i don't mind either of them. Certainly could have been much worse.

Well I could take a shit on an Nazi Flag and have it be a better Storm jersey than that Batman one, so thats not really saying much.

In addition the the romoval fo the NIB between the chest badges.

Easily a shootout between the Knights, the Roosters, the Dogs and Cowboys.

I know they were bat shit mental cases - but some of their designs were classics.

Then again, so the anti facists have some cool designs as well

Here is a St Pauli fan (I have this design on a T-Shirt)

The dark knight jersey wasn't the worst thing ever. At least dark nights and storm clouds are both eerie. Haha. I know that is a stretch for the tie in but i'd still certainly take it over the storm indigenous jersey from last year, or the 2013 titans, or most of the tigers range over the years

Cowboys??? Gotta be the most boring in the comp....

Some would call it boring, others classic

The Cowboys jersey is nice and clean and simple
Take the Newtown jersey (as modelled here by Willie Mason)

It's rather "boring" as it's just a single block colour - but I reckon it looks great and you wouldn't find many people who would bag the Bluebag.

Of course the swastika wasn't traditionally a Nazi symbol also and was just appropriated by the Nazi's.

Just like Bogan Aussies have taken over, "Oggie, Oggie, Oggie Oi Oi Oi" from the British.

Each to their own of course, maybe they should have sponsored Newcastle, Dark Knights and all that!

Let's drop the British and blame it on the Welsh (Max Boyce made Oggie, Oggie, Oggie, Oi, Oi, Oi famous). Here is Max in traditional Welsh garb supporting the Welsh Rugby team.

But yes, good point on the mis-appropriation of the swastika
If you go to Customs House in Sydney, the tiles there are covered in them

(From Wiki) The swastika is an equilateral cross with four arms bent at 90 degrees. The word "swastika" comes from the Sanskrit svastika - "su" meaning "good" or "auspicious," "asti" meaning "to be," and "ka" as a suffix. The swastika literally means "to be good". Or another translation can be made: "swa" is "higher self", "asti" meaning "being", and "ka" as a suffix, so the translation can be interpreted as "being with higher self".

You know Ive always thought it was Welsh to, but Wikipedia claims it might originate in Cornwall when people were selling pasty's. Which of course makes sense as thats another name for them.

Also the Welsh are British!:)

This is getting WAY of topic!

That Newtown strip is a beautiful thing.

That's the 2009 version. In 2008 for the Centenary of RL the club removed the three stripes on the sleeve to make the jersey look similar to the original 1908 version and they kept the design the same for the following season. I personally liked the 2008 one but not the 2009 as it had no historical reference.

That 2009 kit would be the best kit in the NRL! Love it. Just about everything looks better without a sponsor, but were obviously way past that point.
