It's a real decent question of what we need more...

Props:

3. Hetherington
4. Croker
5. Thompson

Second Row / Lock:
1. Frizell
2. Elliott
3. Mann - ugh
4. Fitzgibbon
5. Jones
6. Johns
7. Purcell

That's going by what's listed on https://www.newcastleknights.com.au/teams/?competition=111&team=500003

Our edges are baaaaad.

Purcell has signed with the Tits

Ah, well there you go.

I just watched an interview with Peter Parr and he said we have 3 spots to fill and we'll be active in the market. Didn't get any more specific but I guess one of those will be the Sharks back and then 2 more.

If God created Man then the Footy Gods created Mann. Looks like Mann is a lock for 14 this year.

At least it’s not a key player like it was with Brailey last year.
Now watch a key player go down with a serious injury tomorrow at training.

Ponga will be paying $1.05 on the betting markets in this catagory.

I think the lighting/filter is doing it some favours. Basically identical to last season other than a few sponsor logo changes and a different collar by the looks of it. There's little 88s over the chest/rib area too, not sure if that's the grip they use on player jerseys or just aesthetic.

A marginal improvement on last year but still pretty dull. Expecting the away jerseys to be bad as usual.

Gut Vs always look bad

 

[Old School]

Love the fake tough guy looks on the brothers, if only they were real!

 

[ryan.a87]

Too much red I reckon….it’s a bit glary

they should look at some epl jerseys….mainly blue with hints of red

This.

Need to proportion the red/blue combination with significance. Inverse for the away, and we are no white Dragons light.

Good spotting RE: the 88's. I was trying to work out what the two rectangles were meant to signify, but yes, they 100% are 88's.
I was REALLY hoping for maybe shallower chevrons with just a white NIB logo placed on the blue jersey background, but I really wasn't expecting it.

 

[Jono078]

I don't like it. Won't be buying one.

 

[macavity]

If they took the 88 design, and put the “v” into the gradient stripes on the chest it would have looked cool.

this is not cool.

I was pretty keen to update my jersey but I'm not really a fan of this one. As someone else said, too much red. It looks better than the 2022 one just because the NIB logo has improved.
