Man, that Sharks/Roosters game was hard on the old eyes, jersey wise.

Yeah - When I saw what the Sharks were going to wear, I honestly thought it was a great opportunity for the Roosters to wear their red alternate jersey. It really deserves more use.

Wests Tigers and Dragons players wore purple socks in Round 26 in support of pancreatic cancer charity Purple Our World.

The integrity of the NRL jersey/uniform was lost long ago but instead of looking like clowns in purple socks might i suggest painting the ingoals purple, maybe playing with a purple steeden instead.

The Purple sock thing - along with the one-off jersey thing annoys the crap out of me. Look at the strip Newcastle wore on Saturday. Ridiculous.

I get that they are raising awareness and all that, but highlights of these games will be shown for years and years to come (ok maybe not the Knights game) and they will forever look silly.

Oh that orange monstrosity, they may as well have worn the purple socks with it as well to look truly ridiculous. Didn't see the green socks save the tree week round this year though. Disappointing, get on it Greenberg.

It shits me no end that clubs cling desperately to crumbling shitholes like Leichhardt and Brooky because "something vaguely special happened in this generall location 40-something years ago. Cold meatpies on a hill and other nostalgia..."

But when it comes to the integrity of a jersey, the very core of the clubs history, traditions and fundemantal image? well...
"Macca's offered us 20 bucks, so we're the Red and Yellow McRoosters until further notice. DONT ASK QUESTIONS, there is money to be made!!!!!!!"

i blame parramatta for that stupid f**king m&m jersey they wore to celebrate the arrival of blue m&ms..

but then again.. that gets topped by garry hocking in the AFL.. who changed his name by deed poll for one game to 'whiskas' as part of a promotion, so that the commentators were calling 'whiskas' every time he got the ball..
