Looks like the brightness/contrast of the photo has been turned up to show the detail. The dark lines around the white logos give it away. I don't think it will be that obvious on the field.

Roosters 9's jersey is foul, filthy Ed Hardy style up top. A plain red bottom half would have suited better, looks like banana leaves.

Souths is good.

Penrith revealed after the treasure hunt this morning. Gold side panels, nice.

Yeah that giant "50" with the Down syndrome looking panther jumping out of it like its a f**king birthday cake looks terrible. Not a fan of that gold side panelling either.

Throw it in the sea.

There really should be a like button for quality like this...

I actually don't mind it, although I'm not a fan of the large 50 on the front.

Remains to be seen whether this will be the home jersey for 2017 and beyond, or whether a new design will be unveiled. Gus is on record in wanting to establish a design that will remain unchanged for 50 years. If so, I would like to see something more distinctive, such as the gold vertical stripes based on the 1970s strip that we wore in the heritage round.

It also confirms that gold has replaced teal as the secondary colour. If we can just stick to that, with no other colours, then that will establish a long term identity. Black as what we are now, gold (as a lighter shade of brown) as what we were from 1967 to 1990.

Take the 50 off the jerseys and they look good imo. That big logo looks shit though.
Agree, but it's only for one year. It's bold and establishes the Panthers brand and colours. In future years the big logo will disappear and the player names will go back to the feint stripes. I like the gold panels.

yuck... less is more.

Yep, large swathes of "metallic" gold probably won't date well and are difficult to match up on different items. I don't mind the idea of the gold but as you said, less is more. Maybe something like this would have a longer shelf life?
