How is it that Parra and Canterbury can play in matching jerseys this week yet we are subjected to white away/clash jerseys when its not needed

Stupid last night to have both teams in white - there was more white in that jersey than their normal home jersey. Of course someone at the club thought the gold jersey was not needed

Agree with the rules in NZ re certain sponsors - would love it to be in place here

The jersey the Broncos were wearing last night was nice - they should wear it full time

It wouldn't apply to Aus based clubs.

The law is that you can't advertise gambling businesses based in another country.

The warriors can still use any casino or betting agency that is based in NZ.

Look at the difference between the Titans socks and their mess of a jersey. Socks have a clean and classic look, while the jersey is a busy mess of shit. Fix yo shit Gold Coast.

Gold Coast jersey is f**king horrid - home and away. Just awful
The sponsor logo destroys an already piss weak design and makes it look like a pile of vomit.

Theirs is by far the worst jersey in the comp, followed by daylight, Tigers and loads more daylight and then the Broncos.

The Broncos special jersey is colour by numbers garbage based on the panel placement, lazy design.

Tits have always looked awful but they should definitely look at keeping the all blue look in the future, maybe with more gold accents.

Totally agree. NRL needs to step in and demand more clean jerseys, but they won't.

Some tool from a non-RL background gets outsourced to be an advisor to say what works and gets paid a lot. We all see that the designs are horrible and we all could pull a few colours and designs out that'd look so much better than what the Titans have ever had.

IMHO -

Good jerseys:
Sharks, Roosters, Knights, Eels, Broncos, Cowboys

Bad jerseys:
Everyone else. But sadly including: Queensland, one of the biggest monstrosities going.

How do you not figure Canterbury and St George Illawarra jerseys as good?

Along with Cronulla, Roosters and Rabbitohs, they're the most classic designs in the game ffs

Canterbury have a good design, so I will sort of claim oversight to be honest. Mea culpa.

That said, the only thing that annoys me about it is the fact that they haven't got the sponsor under the chevron. If they managed that, it is perfect and should have legislation against any future change.

Dragons? Simple design, but I am always cheesed off for the same reason. Sponsor. How hard can that be? My perfect Dragons jersey would be a turn of the century (or thereabouts) one where there was the little red edging on the sleeve but with no sponsor decimating the chevron.

The "V" is iconic. To mess it up is just appalling.

Rabbitohs: current jersey is an abomination. Simple stripes. How hard can it be?

If I could lock in a home jersey forever (and there are worse ideas):

Bulldogs: Current with sponsor fixed
Broncos: Jersey before last, Maroon with gold side panels
Cowboys: 1995
Dragons: Un-ruined red chevron
Eels: Mid-80s with stripes in the middle. Sort of like now.
Knights: Current
Panthers: White/black with mid-level aqua stripes
Rabbitohs: Classic stripes
Raiders: 1991 jersey
Roosters: Current
Sea Eagles: Classic maroon with white stripes
Sharks: Current
Storm: Something purple and blue with a non-mucked up chevron.
Tigers: Gold with black "V"
Titans: 2007 jersey
Warriors: The Auckland blue with white chevron

What a bunch of crap,regarding the dragons. You have the broncos design as good, but the dragons as bad because its not a full vee? Dragons have not had an uninterrupted vee for over 35 years now. We've maintained the exact same design, albeit in the mid 90s the angle of the vee became quite flat.

If you don't like the vee that's fine, but to suggest we've "messed it up" when it's been the same since the mid70s is crazy

A consistently shitty jersey is still a shitty jersey.

Ooh, I like this game. While I like traditional designs for old clubs, i don't mind seeing the newer clubs in something more modern.

Bulldgogs: GAZF's interpretation of their classic design

Broncos: The 2012 heritage design

Cowboys: The 2005 bulls-horns design

Dragons: Current

Eels: 2012 heritage design

Panthers: 2012 design (same as current but without the pale belly stripes)

Rabbitohs: 2013 heritage design (same as home and away but with no side-panels)

Raiders: Current

Roosters: Current

Sea Eagles: 2010 heritage design

Not trying to be antagonistic. I just hate mucked up chevrons. With an uninterrupted one, the Dragons jersey is the icon it deserves to be. I just don't like the flat V or, my pet peeve, the goatee.
