2017 Jerseys, Logos, Sponsor Discussion

But I digress, that Tigers home jersey is very nice. Supporters should be happy with that one.

The current one is better. Felt like they should have kept it long term.

Storm Home.

Does it really need a hashtag on the back of the collar? It looks rather tacky to me.

Wtf does the colour under the sponsor have to do with anything? Talk about going off on an unrelated and irrelevant tangent. Lol, you were trying to say the Dragons sponsor, like the Dogs, cuts through the design (which it doesn't). Remember how the original argument was about sponsor integration? When you failed in your original argument you pointed out the colour of the jersey (for some reason). Hey, did you know that lots of team have away jerseys with white space under the sponsor too!

Perhaps your comprehension skills aren't great? "Dragons jersey is also the same" was a reference to the last line of the previous sentence.

then all white space below it.

Dragons jersey is also the same?

Are you trying to tell me that there's not an acre of white space underneath both club's major sponsor?

Just showing off the hard to get twitter handle that they have, It would look better in a different font or in purple as a tonal feature.

It looks as if Puegeot's sponsorship with the Roosters has ended while steggles are still the main chest and lower back sponsors. Apart from that, same home jersey as last year except the upper chest plate and upper back space on the jerseys are now blank.

Broncos and ISC is a great partnership. They've smashed the designs out of the park (finally).

Loving this time of year with new jersey designs being released. How good is it fellow jersey nerds?

Storm with their 17th jersey in 19 years...

 

[GAZF]

The Storm's jersey is basically the same save for the manufacturer change (collar/cut/etc...). Most teams would have had over 17 jerseys in 19 years.

 

[ed-grimley]

The clubs should run a competition for school kids to design their new jerseys every year - good PR and generally speaking the professional designers are pretty shit at what they do.

Twitter handle?

That Tigers home jersey is brilliant.

I'll wait until I see the Dragons 2017 jersey in the person but the pics look good.

 

[Timmah]

A bit low res but Roosters appear to have no major changes. Peugeot deal already over?

I love the new Tigers Home jersey but upset with the away jersey. Not so much the design (although I dont like the design so much) but more the fact that the obvious alternate strip would be just the inverse of the Home, being predominantly Gold with black above the white chevron.

But since the Wests side of the Merger have dominated the Balmain side on the board, the orange has disappeared. To me everytime I see the white alternate, I just SMH at the pettiness.

It's worth noting both Balmain & Western Suburbs club logos now appear at the back-top of the jumper - on all variants (home, away etc)

The contrasting hem stripes bug me. Breaks up the transition from the jersey to the shorts.

Yes I noticed that. I guess thats a good thing. As an old Balmain Tiger, I had no quarrel with the Magpie and want equality but its been a long time and we need to get behind a united Tigers. Tigers are the only team with gold (orange) and its a good colour to stand out, at least for the alternate. I cant see any other reason for it not being used.

I think the gold stripe is a nod to our heritage ;-)

Magpie is still also on the sleeve.

All the roosters training gear has the old rooster logo... hope that's a signof things to come in the future
