      I'd be interested to know who else is with the Chiefs as there are plenty of options at loose forward without having to look outside the area.

        Yep, staggered by that. Who misses out from McCurran, Lasaqa, Norris, Brash, Burr and Reuben?

            seems to be the same pattern, just a different template, still cool although i prefer the original white one with the Tapa Cloth sleeves

              The competition is too short. Should be a "home and away" format with shorter finals series.

                  looks like a great location, dont know what kind of numbers the raiders get but 30k seems to be the sweet spot for these kinds of venues

                    Unlikely. The government isn't a huge fan of sport and wants to spend cash on the tram. This has been discussed for years and gone nowhere and the current Chief Minister thinks sinking more money into the shithole known as Bruce Stadium is a better idea. That alone speaks volumes. Everyone who has ever gone out there knows it's unsuitable. There's no supporting infrastructure and it's fucking shit: No pubs or restaurants nearby. Shitty bus service back into the city.

                      You forgot to mention that it sucks in every bit of cold wind that exists in Australia.

                      That proposed location would be excellent if backed by good public transport.

                        Anyone know if we’re getting new jerseys for the NZ teams next season, or just Oz, Drua and Moana?

                          @game_film I'm not sure about this, but don't they usually get new jerseys after 2 seasons? They had new jerseys for the 2022 season, so I'd expect them to wear the same in 2023.

                            @Stargazer Yeah, usually 2 years but just wondering given the others changed already. I still haven’t made my mind up on last year’s, whether I like them or not.

                                  @Daffy-Jaffy Reds one looks ok, mind you I don't get into excitement over what jersey looks like as I never buy them. All a jersey needs to do is help me tell 2 teams apart on field.

                                          The Bank of New South Wales sponsoring Queensland.

                                          Well when I used to go and watch at Ballymore, used to hear the announcer say the Queensland Reds sponsored by Canterbury, are playing the Canterbury Crusaders, that was strange.
