Wow that must have taken a while

 

[Blues Riff]

Dunno if too late... Was the kiwi jersey and wests magpies identical for a long time?

Yeah, Whare, Brown, MacEndry, DWZ, John, Taylor
We're full of Kiwis anyway, I guess.

Old Junior Roos jersey was an inverted Emus jumper as the green and gold were switched around. As Saint Doc posted:

GAZF's one is ok, but I'd prefer the changing thickness in the stripes of the Emus/PMXII/Jnr Roos jersey and that the newer versions stop at the tip of the V

The uniform stripe widths were an attempt to combine the classic double V with this:

To me, the '94 tour style seems very dated and unsuited to a national jersey. Plus the V touching the stripes drives me nuts.

To those wanting to add gold to the Kiwis national colours, they have over 100 years of history in black and white. You don't need to manufacture a history when there already is one.

Panthers jersey has a new lower back sponsor - Allam Homes.

It doesnt mean their brand cant be improved on...

And i think "oldest international rugby league team on the planet" is a pretty nice claim to hold; which is what the All Golds represent.

(and its not like that one little strip of gold takes away from their present image)

Big bright yellow box, certainly stands out.

Storm Women In League jersey.

I'm still waiting for a club to adopt the NBA/NHL idea of St. Patrick's day jerseys. There aren't enough clubs wearing green in the NRL!

Begs the question. Why has the NRL not adopted Mothers Day weekend as Women in League round. Seems a missed opportunity to have it a week late. Sure, not all women are mothers, but it couldn't hurt the image they are trying to showcase.

Although, maybe Sunday crowds would be down, giving a less flattering result.

Would it be a reasonable programming change?

it would make way too much sense. given they come up with draws which have the same teams playing within a few weeks of each other and cant admit it doesnt work i cant see them putting WIL round on to coincide with mothers day

 

[steggz]

Loose Cannon got it in one, crowds on Mothers' Day aren't great.

 

[Perth Red]

It wouldn't matter who the Dragons were playing that afternoon, family would come first

This one.

It was worn during the 1994 Kangaroo tour, only against club sides.

The same design has been used by the Junior Kangaroos a few times, even with reversed colours.

Evidence that some things are best left in the past

PS. If anyone buys that "all things Queensland" jersey please send us photos so we can publicly shame them. Absolutely putrid, vile, disgusting garbage.

Kiddly fiddlers should be made to wear them as a form of punishment imo

As long as Super League 97 merchandise? doubtful.

Yeah, yeah, but... The SL Australia jersey was actually awesome. Truly.

I've ordered one to give my brother for his birthday, because he's a Queensland fan and I f**king hate him. I'm hoping he'll wear it in public and get bashed.
