That gold still looks terrible. Maybe in smaller trim it would have been ok but a large solid chunk of it looks pretty ugly. Oh well matches ‘THE’ stuff up I suppose.

The club won't please everyone I guess.

I am biased, but I love it. Coke jokes aside from the peanut gallery (lol), the strip is good on the eye. The red and gold is a nice contrast (some similarities to the infamous American 49ers NFL team). We will have multiple variations in '23, and I am assuming at least three to four including the Women in League, and ANZAC Day rounds.

Worth a read for anyone interested re: the club's due diligence and thought process around our logo and club colours.

Shame it’s more baby poo gold than shimmering gold lol

Those Dolphins colours are the ones I thought would be good for a Perth Pirates team but it's too sandy. The colour should be Old Gold #CFB53B. It should be kept for trims, thin stripes and embossed lettering. They need to get rid of the pants side panels.

For mine, deepish red, 'old gold', and black should be the colours of WA's team when it eventuates. Like I've said previously, one kit should be gold heavy, black secondary colour, with red trim. Another kit should be mostly black, gold as the secondary colour, and red trim. If a 3rd is required (can't see how, mind you), THEN go with red main, black secondary, and gold trim. Heritage could be a Western Reds design but utilising just those three colours.

I've mocked it all up months ago. It looks brilliant, in my opinion. I'll have to try finding them again one day soon, just for the fun of it.

Shirt tucked in. Shorts too big. Shit colours. No location name. What more can they do to f**k this up...

 

[big hit!]

What a wank!

It's not gold, it's terrible!

They should have just used what the Q Cup team wore this year. The template is old school and distinctive. Red and white is fine without the Gold.

Illawarra 'somehow' managed to survive all those years alongside St.George despite they both having red and white as their colours. 'Somehow' no-one ever got them mixed up. It can be done (albeit in a world pre-200-jerseys-per-season).

I believe we have done a good job with the nod to our proud history (established in 1947) with the new jersey. The new jersey, with the red, white and gold, has been eloquently explained by the club on their website. I love the jersey. I love the vision.

If not pleasing the other 16 teams' fan bases isn't going to be achieved. So be it.

Perth team should use predominantly Black and Gold (same as Eels) with Red trim.

A light gold could work for the Dolphins but that one on the jersey is the wrong shade...

 

[AlwaysGreen]

That Kings jersey isn't great. Hopefully the dolphins jersey is better

Are we displeased? We just think it’s shit, that’s all.

Yeah it is not like everybody is on suicide watch after the announcement, it is just that people either think it is funny or are not enamoured by it.

100%, and to each their own.

Let's hope the other 16 teams nail their jerseys for the masses. ;-)

I’ll add that my team (Raiders) have got that stupid blue jersey - seriously we are called the Green Machine for a reason so stick with it. The Knights will probably have that eyesore NIB logo. So don’t worry mate, it’s not just your club

Oh, definitely. All clubs will toss up something that may not land with their fanbase or other fans. I recall the blue Brisbane strip from the 90s for example! I am not sure there fans ever understood that.

It is all in good fun. Rest assured, each club will have MULTIPLE variations out annually and diehard fans will buy them whatever they look like!

Starting with a blank piece of paper they did have the opportunity to avoid the Titans mistakes and actually come up with a design that would be iconic and instantly say Dolphins. Instead they have come up with a local club design that will no doubt change significantly every year. Colours are nice done correctly but would have been nice if they had made the effort to come up with a design that would set them up for the next 20 years.
