It's one thing NRL needs to do more of and get leaders, celebs, etc wearing their footy gear and talking up their love of the game.
I'm no ScoMo fan but at least he has his Sharks gear, goes to games and doesn't seem to have jumped on AGL bandwagon. Sure...as PM, wear national jerseys etc when Kangaroos Wallabies Socceroos Matildas Opals etc play.
yep agreed.
someone in here mentioned street wear for NRL a while ago, got unsurprisingly knocked down by a few... but I’m all for it.
Most of the gear has sponsors slapped all over it, no doubt part of the deals they agree with sponsors. But they can look like something from nascar.. and not that cool.
An example..
I Bought a retro dragons hoodie from Mick Simmons a while ago. Red, simple “Dragons” text of the front, with the St George Emblem on the back.
Moved to Adelaide last year and my partners’ 15 y/o daughter basically claimed it, wanted me to buy her one but they aren’t around anymore so I gave it to her. Wears it everywhere and her friends want one too. I’ve also got a dragons jacket that has sponsors but she doesn’t like that one.
She loves it because it’s simple, unique, loves the logo design and not “afl” which is everywhere. She doesn’t follow the sport but wants me to buy her anything else in a dragons range like that. And her friends have put in their requests too.
