2019 Jerseys/Logos/Sponsorships

[T-Boon]

The NFL's (and American sports in general's) refusal to have sponsors on their uniforms (though that is changing) is only made possible by their willingness to make concessions with how long the game takes to play by creating stoppages for ads to be played in.

Obviously I only speak for myself (though I'd be willing to bet I speak for the majority), but I much rather that the team wears a Huawei logo on their bellies then each game take half a day to play because we've artificially lengthened it to fit a shit ton of ads in it.

Sure the Americans do a lot of things way better then we do when it comes to professional sports, but when it comes to emulating American sports you should be very careful what you wish for...

Baseball does not have TV time outs. Football and basketball do but it serves two purposes. Firstly they make a lot of money, secondly it holds the coaches to a high standard of participation to make adjustments.
They destroy the nrl for crowds even at college and in some states high school level so like whatever.
Same can be said for AFL which increase stoppages for bigger money and the like. Way better crowds and popularity generally.

It’s hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it’s damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.

Just wanted to leave that thought here

But at least it’s the right colour

Could just chuck the Durakote sponsor on Myle's forehead

What were the Sharks wearing when Gallen made his debut? They could have worn a version of that.

On that kit actually, I hope the Cowboys can go to ISC and say, can we start with this as the 'inspiration' for next year's home jersey... change the green to grey or yellow, and remove the 'Deaf Australia' imprint design, and you have a really nice kit which pay homage to the 1995 kit but is also different.

make the white stripe yellow, and i think you’re onto a winner.

So it's okay to mess with the on field product for financial gain, but it's not okay to touch the uniforms under any circumstances, even if that is for financial gain. . . Somebody needs to make their mind up.

I want to state for the record that I thought the Raiders deaf jersey looked great.

Guys, Stallion is a f**king moron. Best to put the prick on ignore.

Same with T Boon actually.

With all the nostalgia surrounding the farewell to Willows last night, earlier in the week I watched the compressed highlights package of the R1 1995 match on Kayo.

I noticed that for TV games in 1995, club logos were painted into the field.

These days, that appears only to occur on Grand Final day - if at all (i think last year they had sideline mats for the clubs instead?).

Then I remembered that bar the NRL TP logo (and even then sometimes not even that), no logos are painted on the surface anymore, it's all digitally projected.

So why couldn't we have logos projected onto the surface for every game, either side of the NRL logo like it used to happen in 1995?
