dal was quite happy as you will see in the vid - but that was the best shot of the jumper I could get.

The whole thing really looks like a temp roughy for the announcement. I bloody well hope so

Yes it will have been.

We did the same last time, they looked very dodgy last year, then the real ones were made up later on.

is it just me or dose the jumper now look like crap?
that blue logo ruins it all!

Mate, that "blue logo" is paying the club $2m per year, and without them we would probably be off to Western Sydney somewhere ...

If we support our sponsors, they will be loyal to us. Everyone is whinging about this gurnsey sponsor and that one, wishing we had one instead of another.

Get behind the sponsors that pay money to our club and they will reward us by being in for the long haul.

I admit I didnt like it at first ISC being major apparel sponsor and Jeld Wen as major partner.

I initally thaught WTF is this the best we can get. But after I thaught about it I can see the up side of it.

First the sponsor: $2 mill is a great deal, Jeld Wen is a trusted and high quality product and AUSTRALIAN (which is most improtant).

As for ISC: they are an internationally known apparel company doing (among others) The NRL's Sydney Roosters and South Sydney, The NBL's Sydney Kings and most of the Super 14 Union teams.

Sure Reebok or Nike would have been nice but at least the AFL isnt making our stuff under the guise of a cut price Target surf wear company
anymore.

As for Skins I belive they are still going to be supplying us with their top notch pressure garments.

The new jumpers (hopefully only a mock up) looks rubbish with a thin white stripe but the removal of the piping from the sleeves and neck is a deffinate improvment. All in all it is a good step foward for us as a club

BANG BANG

absolutely spot on.

The club should not be sacrificing millions of dollars in sponsorship because the logo makes the jumper look a little worse.

Who gives a flying flower....

I like the blue. It stands out.

That jumper better be a mock up - it looks horrific.

BTW, the crest should always be under the sponsors logo, makes both stand out more.

Pretty sure Jeld-Wen are a multinational.

Even if we're sponsored by "Jeld-Wen Australia" there's a global interest behind it.
