I would not be surprised if similar to this year the pink alternate is also the Nines jersey.

Rabbitohs Home and Away

Home remains the same. Not sure how I feel about the change in sponsor colour from white to red on the away jersey. It doesn't look terrible but white looked better imo. Probably just because i'm not used to it.

Home good - away not so good.

Tigers home kit looks really good - the away is meh


I honestly thought the Panthers had nailed it with the black and gold
The Gold / Tan colour is a nod to their Brown whilst the Black is classic Panthers

I quite like the jersey for this year - an update on a classic, but I just thought the Black and Gold was classy and the Panthers had finally found a colour that really suited them
I thought that last year's Panthers black and gold home and away jerseys were the best they've ever had, but I agree the club needs links with the past and an ongoing identity.
Correct me if I'm wrong here but the brown and white was adopted initially as their red, white and blue colours would have clashed with Easts. For a while they actually had red and blue bits incorporated into the brown and white.

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.
The ideal away jersey would be a predominately gold with black/gold panel/vee - more or less an opposite of the home jersey.

I think once we're used to it, the rabbits away will be easier on the eye. The biggest sponsor gripe on here is big white boxes. The box at least now blends in with one of the two stripe colours. Surely on field will look better?!

I cannot not for the life of me understand how tigers can stuff up there jerseys so often. 1 jumper should be predominantly black, with white and a splash of orange/gold. The alternative should simply be a reverse, predominantly orange/gold, with black and a splash of white. The original 2000 jumper idea (updated for modern designs) should be followed. Why they go off this, and even do stupid things like that ghastly recent grey jumper is idiotic

A thick red stripe, not quite as thick as the box, would be an interesting approach. The black crown box is a joke though, a horizontal lock-up inside of the green band would be better.

Wests side of the JV trying to punish Balmain with a lack of orange is all I can think of.

Our jerseys are always so shit, and it's embarrassing. 2017 no exception.

I wasn't familiar with that word. I wasn't sure whether you liked it or not, so I looked it up. Apparently you like it very much, maybe too much.
The jerseys are really growing on me as well.
... and thanks ACT for the education.

Ha ha ha ha ha that's golden - More than happy to help out brother
