2019 Jerseys/Logos/Sponsorships

What’s with the pattern on Kiwi’s shoulders?

Silver ferns, side panels appear to be Koru which in Maori symbols is an unfurling fern symbolising rebirth usually

 

[Matiunz]

It’s either Maori or Polynesian design which has also been incorporated into the Warriors jersey on the side panels. I’m not a fan of it, and while I have no problems celebrating the culture of NZ they need to leave it off the playing jersey. It could be incorporated into off-field or training gear.

The ferns themselves on the shoulders are not Polynesian design and are pretty interchangeable with a kiwi as a symbol for NZ, in fact both are on the Kiwis badge.
Side panels appear to be Maori design though

Tonga have also moved to ISC: https://www.iscsport.com/isc-partners-with-tonga

Does anyone know how long the Kangaroos' deal with Canterbury is? I wouldn't be surprised if ISC signs them up in the future since they seem to have almost everyone.

Hopefully ASAP and they never touch NRL or the Roos again.

Hmm that’s a bit slack. The best jersey the Wallabies ever had was there one with indigenous designs (also the only one they’ve won in) Roos should try it.
Do you think Tonga, Ireland, Scotland and Samoa should remove theirs?

Edit- sorry did you mean on the warriors or kiwis? No the Warriors should not have it, they are a club side. The kiwis are ok

Like the current Tongan jersey hope they don't change it. Clearly there is money to be made with Tonga and merchandise. Hope they don't have some chat sponsor on it.

It’s basically the same and still with that unfortunate front of jersey sponsor.

Think I prefer the Fi-ta one, Recon Solutions are last be cheering with all the publicity Tonga is getting

If that’s anything like (looks exact same?) the 2017 collar it’s just as f**ked. Doesn’t look as bad but is mad uncomfortable

That looks like an old photo.

Canterbury has a new collar design and template now anyway: https://rugbyshirtwatch.com/?s=canterbury

It's basically an overlapped t-shirt style collar with high raglan sleeve seams at the front and webbing stitched over the seams. The high cut for the sleeves will make the Kangaroos' chevrons look much, much better.

Thats what I thought but they had they "2017 world cup jersey" with the bowtie collar then this one with 2019

your probably right though..

They also have some 2018 off-field gear listed as 2019.

I think the fact it’s only available in 3XL confirms that it’s an old jersey!

 

[Lambretta]

Apparently removing the southern cross is 'treasonous'...

Brazil, PNG and New Zealand have the Southern Cross on their flags

It is not an exclusively Australian symbol.

I don't mind including it as PNG and New Zealand play League, but to claim not including it as treasonous or worse "un-Australian" is a load of old bollocks

Getting to that exciting time of the year for us jersey nerds!!! I believe we will start to see a few designs coming through in the next few weeks because I think the NRL is officially launching all their new logo stuff this week.

In regards to the new logo, I don't mind it. I agree that it may be a little too simplified and I'm not a massive fan of the writing being outside on the bottom because this won't look good with complex jerseys but otherwise, I don't mind it.

Not good news for us at all. I really hope the club can get it sorted.

That matches the day the draw was released last year, wonder if that will be released same day as well?
