Pakistan B&H World Series Cup kits in the early to mid 80's.

Always loved that colour mix.

I think a green and blue kit would be nice in the NRL.

Maybe we should have a separate thread for would-be designers?

That brown combination is quality, but would probably better suit the CQ bid..

 

[hellteam]

The jersey design section of that site doesn't load for me... anyone know why?

 

[smithie]

Must use Internet Explorer. Doesn't work with FireFox or Chrome.

 

[hellteam]

Hmm still didn't work

Funny you say that, because I took it from the colours for a Central QLD jersey I did on an NFL designer:

This was the original Green/Maroon/White one I did for Ipswich Jets/Brisbane II which I quite like:

You have to use Internet Explorer for some reason.

 

[adamkungl]

the Broncos alumni are coming out in force against this... Sailor rubbished it (haha...he claimed the Broncos are the people's team, no one would support a new one), Webcke prefers CC and CQLD. Has Lockyer commented? Bennett?

 

[BDGS]

Bennett has already.

WA and CC for him.

 

[applesauce]

Bennett doesn't want it, but why would he. I wouldn't expect Locky to say anything positive considering he is contracted and loyal to the Broncos.

 

[Goddo]

Yeah, its no surprise anyone close to the Broncos is against it. They feel threatened.

But it isn't fair for News Ltd to hold the game back by blocking expansion in SE Queensland simply for the Broncos gain. It wasn't right the way they had SQ Crushers and Gold Coast killed off.

Admitedly they had debt problems from the SL war, but so did a lot of teams. That area needs more teams to generate loyal fans, avenues for players, boosting TV rights, gaining sponsors from the area et cetera.

The NRL clearly needs more sides there.

 

[Timbo]

The way that the Broncos merciless gunned for the Crushers, is it a suprise that they're all coming out against it?

 

[CowboyFuriousFury]

I can't believe how blind the Broncos are to potential benefits of another Brisbane side when the Crushers were originally in town at 1995. The crowds for Crushers vs Broncos were:

49607 Brisbane v South Queensland QE II31-Mar-1995
34263 South Queensland v BrisbaneLang12-Apr-1996

A Brisbane derby would guarantee a sell out these days with the attention to membership which has a positive correlation to attendances. So it's best for Broncos to stop the 'protectionism' and think of what's best for SE QLD.

I mean AFL has 2 teams in WA & SA you didn't see them complain when a extra team was added they saw the advantages of the derbies.
