2015 NRL Jersey & Sponsorship Discussion

[Joker's Wild]

Knight 2015 jerseys

Heritage, ANZAC, Mining, 9s, Away and home

Should've put them in the order they came last year i.e. Souths and Dogs middle, Roosters and Panthers eitherside of them etc. Probably won't get many if any colour clashes that way too.

They've done it in 2015 order, ie. Rabbits and dragons grand finalists, Panthers and storm 3/4; etc

Yeah ill cop that, so long as Tyrrell being in the middle means we're the premiers again

They brought back the mutherf*cking HENNY PENNY. WOOW!!!!!

Im personally a fan of the mining jersey (very working class, so its appropriate for the Novocastrian ethos).
Id love that as the Away (the white V can f*ck off) with the Main changing to Orange number/collar/sleever to bring the high vis in as a part of the core brand.

I didnt realise we had an ANZAC strip. Im liking the Southern Cross over the badge, but black and dark blue never look good together; grey would have been better...

Orange in the core colours? f**k off

You want the Knights to have an orange away strip? Seriously lol? I don't mind the mining strip for it's 1-2 appearances a year but orange isn't one of the Knights colours and shouldn't be incorporated on the main strips.

I don't mind the ANZAC jersey but I don't love it either. I do love the home, away and heritage ones though.

The heritage strip should be the full time home Jersey, way better

Agree Henny Penny is awesome
Agree mining strip is great (for 1 or 2 games)
Agree Southern Cross is a nice touch

But orange numbers, orange collar and orange sleeve piping on a red and blue striped jersey?

:crazy:

Add that to the "every team should have letters as logos" and "lets run ANZ stadium north/south" pile of ideas!

I'd be cool with our 9s Jersey as our full time away jersey. I quite liked the grey one we had a few years back

 

[Noname36]

I like the away jersey because it's a throw back to the late 90s early 2000s Knights away jerseys. It might be ugly as f**k but I still really like it for nostalgic reasons.

Orange in the core colours? f**k off

He's been listening to Peter Doust talk too much, and supplanted it onto his won club.

MY EYES!!

I was hoping someone would do this.

Thank you.

:lol:

Yes, because nothing similar to this has ever been done with a Knights jersey before now.

Wait.....

Im just so sick of shitty White jerseys. and with an even balance of Red and Blue in the Main, neither can be used as the prominent colour of an alternative....

 

[Hello, I'm The Doctor]

The reason i like this idea is that it would allow us to have an alternate jersey with the colours simply inverted

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Yellow =/= Orange

 

[Saint Doc]

Yes, because nothing similar to this has ever been done with a Knights jersey before now.

Oh dear.

Yes, because orange is the same as yellow.

I look forward to the new socceroos jerseys:

And the new Parra jersey

Come to think of it, were you in a focus group a few years ago that said this was ok? If so, it starts to make sense how anyone thought this was acceptable

There's nothing wrong with the white one. Every club incorporates white into their alternative strip. That's the whole point. A neutral jersey that isn't going to clash with the home team's home strip. We barely use ours as it is given the main one is so freaking bright as it is it doesn't clash with much.

Wanting to incorporate orange is just so freaking ridiculous. Not only does it look horrendous with red and blue (two colours that are hard to work with as it is) but when you start introducing random colours your club starts losing its identity (see Penrith). You can get away with neutral stuff like white or grey but f**king orange is a whole new kettle of fish.

 

[Loose Cannon]

It is a very high quality line up of main jerseys, that's for sure.

One minor annoyance in the photo, and I know it's nitpicking, but in terms of making the photo visually appealing, why would you put two black jerseys (NZ, penrith) next to each other, two sky blue jerseys (Titans, Sharks) together and two navy jerseys (storm, roosters) together?!! And to a lesser extent, dogs and Knights with predominant Royal blue!

With a bit of shuffling the photo could have looked even more striking and impressive.

#firstworldproblems

That was the first thing I noticed scanning through the teams. Not sure anybody with a career in photography was involved.
