Maybe a sponsorless 'replica' supporter top could be an option for people who are hesitant to purchase the 'on field' version ?
This works quite well with super league clubs.The NRL tops are already ridiculously over priced,(when compared to the ESL product),so I'm sure there would be a niche market for an official 'replica'.

OK back on topic - YES the WCC 'special' jersey in a great looking top & it would be nice to have it as our 'home top' but then it wouldn't be 'special' would it  ;-)

I only skimmed thru the email we received from the Storm, but I think the jerseys the players will be wearing during the WCC match are going to be auctioned off via the storm website. 

Correct me if I am wrong anyone.

There used to be some replicas available over the years too, but not sure if that is still the case. 
That would lower the value of the jersey to sponsors. 
  Exposure is not only in the form of when the players wear the jersey, although that is obviously key, but it is also advertising in the form of using supporters as a kind of walking billboard also
Storming our way to glory!

I've mentioned this before but you can buy a sponsorless jersey at Best and Less (the bigger stores) for less than half price offered by the Storm .
I bought one last year some weeks before the grand final for $40.00 when they were on sale...though mine was a large children's size.  Excellent material as well, washes well with no ironing required.

Can't wait this in the flesh (fabric?) - looks ace in the print pics. I do believe I prefer this to our new home jersey  ;D
