The cowboys jerseys could probably do with said keylines around the logos, they both blend into the yellow stripes pretty bad.

Loving the brand the Eels are building with the four-stripe.

Furiously hoping that the white silhouette doesn't mean an alternate jersey... Absolutely no need.
Preying it's a heritage or something

New Maroons jersey half revealed on the QRL website, its in a video and you can only half see it, but it looks to be totally maroon with no frills/extras, fairly plain, although cant really judge til the full version is seen.

They're not doing Seagulls ones really though are they? They could easily do a proper Seagulls one in Red Black & White and people will love it. Newcastle have based their heritage jersey on the old Newcastle team in the past so why can't the Titans go full on with their heritage gear instead of piss poor compromises?

Might have something to do with the Seagulls still being around in the QRL. Im guessing there would be some legal complications around the titans using their colours and designs

I don't mind it but it's a bit plain for me, as Gaz said, a bit of white wouldn't av gone astray, a few stripes on the sleeves. But then again I'm not of a traditionalist, as I don't mind some of the modern jerseys used in the right way

Yeah, but I remember in 06/07 when the Titans came in to the comp, they and the NRL said they were a 'continuation' of the previous club(s).

So they should be well within their rights to use the Seagulls styles/logo.

I don't think so.
I read the 3 names previous were all the same entity and titans have absolutely no ties to the old Gold Coast teams.
And the qld jersey, lol at the v, probably can't even buy that version if it's only the grip.
Maybe it's all marroon cos it's 35 seasons of SOO ?

I dont think thats true

If it was, Id imagine theyd only have links to the Chargers only. The Seagulls were most definitely a different entity from them

I like the plain maroon. Looks bloody magnificent. Reminds me a bit of the throw back jersey from game 2 in 2000 (minus the collar).

The name and number is starting to crack off my personalised 2008 jersey. Time for an upgrade.

I don't know for sure as it's a very confusing situation, but as far as I can figure out I think the ARL might still own the rights to all the Giants, Seagulls, Gladiators and Chargers brands as the license started off with the Giants group then they sold the license to the Gold Coast-Tweed Seagulls, who then re-branded them to the Seagulls but would still have owned the rights to the Giants brand as they re-branded them a year later, then when they almost went bust and had to sell their ARL license to survive they sold the license (and if I'm right the brands along with it) onto Jeff Muller who re-branded them as the Gladiators and then after a series of troubles the ARL took the license back off Jeff Muller at which point he may have kept the old branding rights, but I doubt that because they used the same jersey as the Gladiators used for the Chargers.

So after all that the ARL has the license back but because of the times with the SuperLeague knocking on the door and the Crushers struggling, decide to set up their own club on the GC in the Chargers to keep their representation on the GC and in Queensland with both the Cowboys and the Broncos going over to the SuperLeague and after they have them up and running planned to sell them on, now I can't remember if they did sell them before they dropped them but if they didn't sell them on the ARLC/NRL would still most likely own the rights to all the old brands, but if they did find a buyer and they did sell then it's most likely that the buyer still owns the rights to all the old brands.

So as I said it's very confusing but I'm pretty sure that the ARL didn't sell the Chargers, so they probably still have the rights to the Giants, Seagulls, Gladiators and Chargers still siting around somewhere, the only exception may be the Seagulls brand, but from memory when the Tweed Heads Seagulls sold the GC-TH Seagulls license Jeff Muller did get the Seagulls brand but decided to re-brand anyway, I remember an interview about it and him saying something along the lines of (obviously I'm paraphrasing) "I've decided to leave the unsuccessful past behind and replace the old boring civilized Seagulls name with the badass new Gladiators name".
