As far as I recall, the Roosters are fine til 2026 with their logo if they wish to be, as they have an agreement with the Opera House Trust already in place.

Like: The away jersey keeping faithful to the old-school NQ look. Also FINALLY Toyota have gone for a black outline logo instead of that garish red.

Dislike: The home jersey looks too generic. It's a navy jersey with stripes in Cowboys colours and not a jersey that immediately makes you think Cowboys without the logos giving it away. But more importantly...

WTF did they get rid of the logo they had this year and go back to that garbage logo that was an eyesore when it was released? FFS what a prick-tease. It's the equivalent of purchasing a set of polarised aviators that have that retro cool look...only to dump them in the back of your drawer after a single week and go back to rocking the chunky white Von Zipper sunnies you bought in 2003 and have chips in the lenses.

WTF Cowboys marketing???

The star logo, much like these sunglasses, are timeless classics. Neither will go out of fashion.

Maybe it's the perfect timing for the Roosters to rebrand and return to the Eastern Suburbs name for on-field. Officially they're still Easts as their company name and it's subtlely branded on their merch. Heck, their entrance song is the old "Easts to win" marching song.

Surprised no one has mentioned the Cowboys jersey is more like a Manly jersey.
Disappointed they didn’t stick with the ISC designs.
Away is the better of the two.

Titans is a 7/10.
Thrilled they’ve ditched the Navy, absurd idea that.

Exciting times!!! Love Souths 2021 jerseys! They have been getting critisised on other forums but to be honest, I really like them and think they look great! Classic have done a really good job in my opinion. I would've liked to have seen us go without side panels but they still look fine. So yea, love them and I'll certainly be buying the Home jersey.

This is on top of the 2021 'Thank you Members' jerseys we have already released which will be worn in our first Home and Away games next year. They'll look great too, my name will be on the Away Members jersey so I've already ordered one.

In regards to the other stuff released, the Cowboys look good. Not as good as 2020, they should have retained that design but I can't really knock what they've done. The Titans 2021 jersey is a huge improvement! Much better! The best jersey they've had in ages.

The Cowboy's new home jersey looks more like East's 2nd jersey they wore from 1910 with Yellow and Grey replacing Red and White

I always though that logo was absolutely f**king horrid.

But twenty-something years later it has grown on me.

The most offensive thing about that Roosters logo is the Roosters wordmark. I like the cartoon Rooster - but then again, I have a soft spot for cartoon sports logos. It’s not appropriate for a professional team like the Roosters though.

The Cowboys away, for me, is a solid kit and is a nice 'refresh' of the heritage inspired Cowboys design. It keeps a number of 'core' elements of the heritage kit whilst arguably integrating the sponsors a bit.

It's close enough that if you took the badges off the kit and showed both to someone who doesn't follow League, they'd assume it is the same team, but still allowing Dynasty to have their own 'style'.

The Home for me, aligns very well with what the Cowboys usually dish up when it comes to a new jersey, which is either:
  • Something relatively conservative or boring
  • Bull horns
I actually would have liked them to have used thicker gold bars, a bit like they did during Super League.

I suspect the Rabbitohs could put out Dynamic Lifter bags with holes cut out for sleeves as jerseys and you would praise them :joy:
