@machpants Where are they going to play is the question. Major population centres either already booked out or unavailable. So double headers in shit stadiums ahoy!

Perth for the first one, sold out at 60k, after that who knows

So the very people that don't even want to be Australians get rewarded. :angry_face:

It'll be mostly kiwis in the crowd

Hopefully Scott Barrett is one of them....

Is Scott Barrett better than the current version of Brodie Retallick?

yep

um, I'd like to see B a bit more match ready before I said that.

We are talking about right now to play Saturday, that may all change with game time for BBR.

Oh, was it? I prefer to go ahead and say something without checking it.

Collar looks like a football uni

[Yeetyaah]

Eh I don't mind it, better than the current one with the ab muscle design. Still probably won't buy it.

I'm not a fan of any of the textured designs. I get the RWC ones, if any, cos no advertiser's on them

[Billy Tell]

If anything that is text is not stitched on I’m not buying it. I’m not paying megabucks for some kid in south east Asia to iron on a logo

I think you're shit out of luck going forward, not going to happen anymore - stictching is outdated for logos on high performance sports wear

It’s fcken cheap sht to iron on logos and I’ll have no part of it. My current AB shirt is a training or media shirt but the logo is a proper sewn on job.

[Billy Tell]

That jersey is hideous by the way. Looks like cheap flannel. With an ironed on logo for good measure. To be avoided

dont mind it, cant wait for the AIG to disappear, would prefer their actual logo than just the letters, always thought it made it look like a training jersey with the players initials on the front

They havent embroidered for several years have they? @Billy-Tell you dont think they use to have old ladies stitching them by hand down the rugby club do you? just just have people in asia ironing them when they use to have people in asia stitching them with the huge machine, dont see much difference from that point of view

@Unite i think the "stripes" are just an optical illusion, the close up doesnt show any stripes

[Stargazer]

This is the promo for the new jerseys (there's a new Black Ferns jersey as well).

[KiwiMurph]

They are promoting recycling plastics a week after announcing a deal with Ineos.....

[Kiwiwomble]

@kiwimurph someone posted and i looked up, Ineos are one of the world leaders in developing renewable energy...which is something

thoughts on the alternate strip?
