Love the Manly jerseys with the exception of the away one. Gold trim on the heritage jersey looks classy.

Besides the obvious issues with the sponsor logo on the jersey, I really like the Manly ones. Especially that Heritage jersey.

The sponsors logo will stick out like the proverbial - exactly what they would want so kudos to them I guess.

How come the green Coco joy sponsor can fit on the heritage and nine jersey but on home and away it has to have a huge box (marroon or white) around it??

I guess this is kinda the right thread for it but I need to have a rant.

After the GF I dropped 2K on a framed signed cowboys jersey directly from the club who were using one of the official NRL memrobilia mobs, SE. Now there was a watermark on the pic that said 'concept only' but we all thought (us over at the stampede site) that it would be in reference only to the scoreline and the artwork on the side, this is what we all thought we were getting

Mine arrived today is exactly like another 30 jerseys that they didnt manage to get signed so instead the company somehow got the players autograpghs on the side bar.

This is another guys jersey but mine is the same.

I am so f**king livid at the moment. The club has apparently recieved a barrage of complaints from the 30 odd of us that got stitched up, my reciept clearly states 'framed signed jersey' and that is what I wanted. The jersey is the wrong f**king one as well. I have never been more gutted in my life other than maybe losing the 05GF. Sorry for the rant but I am so f**king angry at the moment. Fingers crossed there is a solution to this but I am not holding my breath.

That's awful beave. Stick it to the club. They have to make this right.

Were there any actual signed jerseys?

I believe there was 120 jerseys all up and 30 odd didnt get signed on the day for some reason.

To not even get a courtesy call prior to dispatch from them explaining to situation and to just expect us to cop it on the chin is rather presumptuous on their behalf. Im not blaming the club for this but as the middle man and the ones who took payment from us and the fact it is their club being represented by a piss poor product, the onus is on them as well to make it right.

So f**king angry right now, this sort of shit always happens to me.

Beave. Are the signatures even originals or just photocopies?

I would take it back to the Cowboys and tell em to fix it or stick it
If they refuse to do either contact your local rag to see if they're interested in knowing how life long fans get treated to the tune of $2,000

That is quite simply f**king disgraceful

The signatures look to be legit.

Not sure how the company got them to sign it though, wether they got the players to sign it on the day as a back up or for other products later on down the track and once it was ascertained that they were short 30 odd signed jerseys, went to the plan B that you see above. Wait out and see what the response is. I was real courteous on the phone to them, there's no point abusing the poor girls at the club that had nothing to do with this, apparently though some people have exploded on the phone to them though.........

Plenty of avenues for complaint.

Start with the club and the company
Then go local : newspapers etc
Social media: tweet people like the mole, vossy, ginnane etc
The official channels: consumer watchdogs etc

I'm confident you will get sorted mate

You're lucky, fifteen years ago you would've been f**ked.

These days they'll get it fixed up asap, give you an official apology & a voucher for the clubstore.
