Sorry for the thread title typo.

Oh wow that looks like a mint jersey.

 

[Raidersrawesome]

It looks great.

In the past the Blue jersey and Pink Jersey have been sold so hopefully this goes on sale to the public.

 

[Timbo]

Nice looking jersey.

In other sponsor news, apparently we're close to inking a deal with Huawei:

Yuk !!

No wonder our guys don't play well .. they never know what jersey they're playing for

I prefer the Collingwood model .. they play under a jumper of back and white vertical stripes .. the alternate jersey is white and black vertical stripes

what'll we have next, camo face paint .. this is just a plain ol case of exploitation of the ANZAC spirit

The NSWRL, ARL and now the NRL have all had a history of promoting ANZAC day. What is the issue with the Canberra Raiders doing the same?

Where is the exploitation? The jerseys aren't being sold to the public. Noone is profiting from this. The player jerseys are being auctioned after the game (and I will win one) and the proceeds are going to charity.

I guess you could argue that the commercial sponsorship probably shouldn't be there, but you could also be a massive dickhead... which you are.

Walk in front of a bus.

Dipped my toes in the water and yep it's cold, just as I thought

 

[Raider_69]

the real exploitation of ANZAC comes from good ol collingwood, who demand to play on anzac day every year so they take advantage of the public holiday crowds, they defile the memory of the anzacs every year by commercialising it for their own greedy profit making.

they dont honour the anzacs or their spirit, they line their pockets by making a mockery of the ANZAC spirit. What a disgrace

 

[Bay56]

you've obviously never been to an ANZAC clash have you Nick

 

[Raider_69]

I wouldnt contribute to the commercialisation of the anzac memory, its a national embarrassment, and fitting of a club with such low moral fibre like collingwood.

Makes sense that a hideous old racist like you would support them though. Collingwood supporters are generally very low human beings which is why they continue to support a game that mocks the ANZAC spirit, a racist such as yourself would fit right in

lol ... Nick you should get up in the middle of the MCG after a period of dead silence. with the Australian flag blowing in the breeze and the bugle playing and tell a crowd of 95k about this exploitation thing ... I'm sure you'll get a rupturous applause

I imagine he'd get a similar response to walking in on one of your klan meetings and calling you all despicable human filth.

Last I saw Nick was a pale face bile ... they'd welcome him into the family

 

[baldie]

as long as all profits from the jersey go to legacy or something then they should defiantly sell it.

 

[Cryptic]

If it wasn't a profit thing, tell them to make the entry fee for the game $0.... Can bet they would never do it... I think you would be hard pressed making them give the profits to charity....

These jerseys ARE to raise money for charity, it's not abusing the ANZAC spirit....

 

[bileduct]

The auctions for the camo jerseys are up.

I dunno if I could be bothered bidding for one this year. Someone is rigging the auctions as there are two or three users names that are bidding on each and every jersey.
