Old Frightful Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 If we are talking iconic I think it is hard to go against the Balmain Tigers, Kangaroos and Wigan's large hoops flanks by smaller hoops You mean irregular hoops that they pinched from Hull FC? {That Hull FC in turn pinched from some touring side IIRC.)

Futtocks Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 The 1951 Wigan shirt. Contrast that with this year's fluorescent effort worn at Magic Weekend. I am also fond of this for personal nostalgic reasons because, badge aside, it is almost identical to my old school colours, except we had blue shorts, which was very un-Wigan.

Farmduck Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Hated the team, loved the shirt. If it's an original, the sponsor should be Power, not Power's. When they changed the spelling they moved the yellow to the bottom half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports Prophet Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Hands down, the worst ever jumpers were the Aus Super League jumpers. From memory, every club had a matching design but their own colours. Must have been why it failed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Boy Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Always liked Canterbury shirts going right back to the original CB logo. The Bulldogs always come up with a smart number. Still without any bias (ahem) can't beat the Black and White irregular hoops - iconic and instantly recognizable Money can't buy you happiness! It can buy you beer and that's a bit like happiness in a glass! "I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals."

Wiltshire Warrior Dragon Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 In similar vein to Roy Boy, I cannot think of anything I have seen which betters the 'traditional' regular cherry and white hoops which graced the likes of Billy Boston and eric Ashton. Having said that, I like many of the Catalan Dragons variants and they are clever (as is the club's name) in both appealing to a wider area than just Perpignan and playing on the sense of separate Catalan identity (ie being Catalan 'national' colours), by which I mean not French, aka Parisian and northern French. But then I can imagine reacting against the centralist, very French stance of national governments is a strong temptation (I think I once read that there is only one official language in France which is, of course, French). On my point, but with apologies for drifting a wee bit off-post, could one of our French correspondents please say what the language is of the sign held up by a Ferrals' player after they won the French national 1 title at the weekend? "Ferrals de las Corbieras" is clearly not French! I saw the picture on the L'Independant newspaper website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
