But 80 BUCKS!!!!

TBH, pricing like that is the reason I havent bought any clothing merch in years. Highway robbery.

well no one is putting a gun to your head :lol:...

like I said, I bought one about 6 or 7 years ago for $70 and they've increased by $10.00, i might add that the price is consistant across the board because every other club's Polo basically cost the same.

maybe the NRL would do better with their merchandise sales if they only expected 1 arm with each purchase

Fish is still wearing his "Kevin07" tshirt he got for free, still thats not unexpected .

Fish spend some cash to support your team, we complain when we see Saints and rabbits supporters wearing their gear, get behind them and show that you are part of the Parra team.Support the free enterprise system, hahaha

Don't wear it.

It's signed and put away waiting to be framed.

I spend enough money on season tickets and memberships etc without getting fleeced for a polo shirt or jersey when the old ones I still have are in perfect condition.

Just to add my 2c, I have bought a Club polo every year since 2004, as they are cheaper than Jerseys (Especially if you are a big man after a bigger size don't expect much change out of $200) and are able to be worn on so many other occasions. They have been between $70 and $80 for a while and in comparison to other teams in the NRL and other codes, including AFL, A-League , S14, IRB and Cricket both Domestic and International the polos are competitively priced.

I also understand from speaking with Chris from club Merch and we don't have a massive markup on the gear, so much so that it could be a little, restrictive on some things this year.

i purchased 2 polos at the cost price sale last year and they were $45 each.

I still think jerseys are better value than polos as they tend to last longer and I find the polos show their age quicker. A jersey will easily do 3-4 seasons. In saying that I agree polos can be worn at a variety of occasions and I only wear my jersey at games.

I need a new polo, but are they cotton? I have the darker blue of 2007 and its hot to wear it. Im guessing too much polyester.
