Strange as I thought QBE still had a year left.

Love how the roosters have come up with a bold, exciting new strip for the upcoming season!

Interesting perspective. I'm personally glad that we have enough respect for the tradition of the home jersey to not sell out for merchandise sales.

I wish my club had a jersey that was so established and iconic that it was classic and not to be touched al la Roosters, Drags, Souffs (that hurt to say).

I dunno, man. It’s probably time the Roosters modernise their jersey by adding a giant rooster head on the front. The kids would love it.

The white sleeves on the indigenous look a bit bland...some other design or colour there would have been good.

Maori jersey I expected something more like some or those awesome Warriors jerseys over the years. Looks more like Ireland than NZ Maori to me

Well maybe they wouldn’t like it as much as giant horns but I’m sure it’d still go over well.

I heard they were adding compulsory sombrero's to their 2019 kit. Haha.

A friend of mine works as a Conflicts Analyst at QBE.

She told me the reason why her and her team came to the conclusion that QBE should no longer sponsor the Roosters but should still continue to sponsor the Swans.

FYI the reason is nothing disparaging to do with the Roosters.

The most likely reason why QBE sponsored the Roosters in the first place is because both QBE and Allianz are general insurers and compete in the same market. As the Roosters have few fans, the Allianz branding on the seats is generally visible on TV screens so it makes sense from a commercial perspective to have this sponsorship (probably the same reason why Vodafone sponsors the Warriors).

The only conflict would be if QBE was their supplier for Workers Comp. QBE sold their Life Insurance business so there is no issue rom a personal/players perspective.

The sponsorship market in Sydney is tough at the moment. It appears the premiers have lost both their sleeve (QBE) and back of jersey sponsor (World First) this year and the Rabbits are still yet to secure a second major partner (it appears Alcatel have upgraded to a jersey sponsor and Zoom have taken the spot under the collar). It's a tough position for the Rabbits though as apparently their jersey sponsorship commands the highest dollars in the comp meaning there's a tradeoff between getting a sponsor now and holding out for the dollars they want.

(probably the same reason why Vodafone sponsors the Warriors).

Vodafone's sponsorship of the Warriors commenced in 1999 and has nothing to do with Telstra being the sponsor of the premiership.

I think that Souths actually do have a second major partner, I think it's P&O.

The Indig. mens jersey looks odd with the white sleeves. The womens design has a better balance.

The Maori jersey is clean, maybe a bit too clean for the All Stars concept?

Plain socks for both teams are disappointing. Hopefully it's because they haven't been made yet.

Check out these retro test jerseys. They also do polos and t shirts

Check out the site in the above quote from the other jersey thread. Some awesome stuff!

Speculation until any kind of announcement is made.

I'm guessing the white sleeves are there for visibility of the Aboriginal Flag. Notice the women's jersey with dark sleeves doesn't have the flag.

 

[gzerounian]

The entirety of each sleeve could have been the Torres Strait Island Flag on one arm and the Aboriginal Flag on the other.
