2023 New Kits - Part 2

[Damien]

Good news for Aussie fans, hopefully this follows through to the NRL jerseys too. The cost of apparel in Australia is scandalous. Making them cheaper can only help to get more buy in from youngsters:

The price of Australian rugby league jerseys will plunge to an almost 30-year low after the NRL agreed to trial a pilot program that could revolutionise how much fans pay to wear team merchandise.

In a move being hailed as an important step amid the cost-of-living crisis, retailers are preparing to sell the Australian men’s and women’s jerseys for $99 when the new line hits the racks in August.

Check out Freddy and Andrew Johns tips before Round 13 of the NRL Premiership.

It will be the lowest price for top-line jerseys since 1994 when Mal Meninga, Laurie Daley and Ricky Stuart were the stars on the Kangaroos tour.

Really nice kit!

Who's the nutter in the middle that looks like he should be on trial in the Hague?

It's Serbia, who's to say he isn't in absentia?

They resisted the temptation for adding rainbow stripes then.

Autumn is a while off & it’s Oxen so this is the early summer training shirts,they’ll be at least 2 more releases before Tonga arrive.

I like it when clubs do these concepts. It's such an easy way to get into schools and get attention. Teachers love having things like this as a brain break!

Le Coq Sportif really are the dogs danglies at designing kits at the minute. Yes although the above design doesn't blow you away the stuff they do for European Rugby Union and soccer are top notch, similar to what Castore knock out.

I agree and it's nice to see a different brand involved in RL. Like how Catalans have Macron and Wigan/Hull have Hummel. 

Only concern I continue to have with Toulouse is the lack of a main sponsor. I understand sometimes deals drag on and you put the order in with the manufacturer in the knowledge that you'll have to heat apply a sponsor later, but this is half way through the season and they've still got just the local government as a collar sponsor.

Had my usual nosey through clubs websites today. Seen Bradford have released a Northern retro shirt. Looks very nice.

Fair enough. Just highlight the web page address on your phone, copy it and paste it into your message though.
