The Jerseys, Merchandise and Sponsorship Thread
The one Billy is wearing in promotional shots is different. I'd prefer the one he's wearing.
This jersey seems to address pretty much every complaint people had about last year's home jersey. More purple, more Vs than anyone could ask for and lightning (albeit realistic lightning). I'd like to see the jersey get a run exactly as is - without a charity sponsor ironed on over the top (which I'm sure is what will happen).
In the future I'd like to see something like the Napier jersey worn for the Nines. A great way to acknowledge our NZ fans and past and present NZ players.
Heritage (based on the 2000 World Club Challenge jersey):
Women in League:
Not sure exactly where these images came from but they were on Twitter.
Heritage is quite nice - and it's nice that it's something different for a change. Not the first time this jersey has been worn for heritage round, though - it was also worn in 2010 but as far as I'm aware it was never available at retail.

Okay, maybe quite nice is an understatement.LESStar58 wrote:The heritage is "quite nice"? Dude, it's feckin' PHENOMENAL!
I like how despite being one of the youngest clubs in the league we're still probably the only club that insists on a traditional collar for heritage round.
An updated look at the Nines jersey:
Footy Home Loans is the sponsor for the Nines weekend. The only thing that I can find online is that it's a trademark owned by a Melbourne company called My Local Broker. I would assume it's a brand launching soon and partnering with us to get some quick exposure. Also looks like the Suzuki logos have been swapped for Suzuki Vitara branding.
I'm glad we have an actual sponsor for the Nines this year. At least that's money coming into the club instead of donating the front of jersey position to charity.
