2000 = year 1
2001 = year 2
2019 = year 20.

20th season is accurate.
20 years is also accurate

20th anniversary is not accurate, but they’re not claiming that
20 years is past tense indicating 20 years have passed. If we're debating the language used, 20th Year is fine, 20 Years is not.

I'm not sure if I like that or not tbh. It doesn't look balanced to me I dunno, something just seems off.

The Telstra Premiership text on that is an absolute joke too, you can't even see it!!! has the NRL made a rule that this text has to be white or something? That's pretty dumb if they have because common sense would make it black on jerseys like this.
It's been designed by maori people for a club in New Zealand, I'm happy if it's not balanced, their design. Same applies to indigenous jerseys. as long as the number on the back is easy to read I don't have an issue.

As for the TP text, I'm beginning to think the NRL aren't terribly fussed on how it looks, as the logo itself is what they want people to see and be able to recognise. Seems to be the only reason we have a plethora of teams with white on white.
The club was formed in 1999.
They didn't play in 1999. Melbourne's 20 years was 1998 despite it being formed at the end of 1997.

Doesn't change your point but the Knights one you've posted is a fan mock-up. The official 30 year logo was

An NRL club's inaugural season is both the 0th and 1st year. The year they choose to celebrate milestones (in a 2 year window) is decided by placing a cat in a box with a death trap controlled by the decay of an atom.

wtf man..

20th anniversary - 2019
20 years - 2019
20th season/ 20 seasons- 2018

the dragons are the only team to start in 99 but they don't seem to be celebrating anything (that i know of), presumably because they like to think their first year was 1921...


Its not that complicated. West Tigers came into existence in 1999. Therefore 2019 is their 20th Anniversary and have existed for 20 years in that year. They first played in the NRL in 2000 therefore 2019 is their 20th season.

Where is the WTF?

perfect QLD jersey!
are they struggling for sponsors though? never heard of auswide bank so they surely aren't paying much? and the rest of the jersey looks empty?

design-wise it looks a lot better to be cleaner and less cluttered, especially when comparing it to the nsw jersey, but you'd think they'd have the same amount of corporate support as nsw

the lack of XXXX anywhere on it is interesting. will be getting one for sure
XXXX is on the back, same as last year. Last year's player issue jerseys had XXXX on the sleeves as well so I'm guessing that'll be the same this year? Not sure why they're not on the sleeves of the retails.

Interesting to note that ISC aren't doing the rubberised badges and the fabric looks to be their standard jersey fabric as opposed to last year's nicer quality stuff.
