I think it's a merchandising angle.

Maybe because they believe white is easier to sell to fans than bright yellow (especially the more casual end)?

Now, if that's the case.. I'm not sure if they would have done any research to back that up - but my thoughts are

1 - if a casual fan/new supporter was gonna shell out for a Parra jersey that's not too bright they'd buy the blue one. (Not white OR yellow)

And 2 - the hardcore fans seem to want yellow as the away. NOT white.

So this white thing ends up unloved by both groups.
Thats what happened with the white away kit for penrith, several years ago... fkn terrible

Some extra jerseys and angles on the Asics website. Looks like the sidebars are gone from the template, just a smaller patch under arms instead.


Slightly updated away jersey:

Also, an infants jersey for what looks like a 'city' jersey:
2114A284_500_FL_FT_AOP

The away would be nice if it didn't have the V within the stripes

Some companies just shouldn't be allowed near Rugba Leeg.....
It’s such a weird feeling seeing much the same design for a third straight season. The last time it happened for us would be the 2010-2012 home jersey (I think), and the last time it was an away jersey would be 2007-2009

Going for an asymmetrical design like that is pretty bold.

Yeah it’s alright, nothing special, but not terrible either.

The boring old arseholes who hate anything that isn’t an exact replica of designs from the 80s and 90s will piss and moan about it endlessly though…

I like it now that I’ve seen videos of it being worn. It stands out.

It's objectively awful
Is it now lamo.

The design's well executed, the jersey's well constructed, the colour palette works well and is balanced, the sponsorship integration is about as good as you can ask for, it's creative and original, etc.

Again it's nothing amazing, and probably won't have a lasting impact either, but it's certainly not objectively bad. Okay is probably the best way to describe it.
