yea, once Jonah and Joeli were gone, the Blues threw Counties away like an old drop sheet.
Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.
I believe the Counties/North Harbour Blues change happened between the 1998 season and 1999 season (Blues played a home game vs the Reds in 1999 at North Harbour that resulted in a 12 all draw. It was an awful game that summed up the Jed Rowlands 1999 season).
Jonah played for the Chiefs in 99 when Counties were aligned to the Chiefs. Joeli continued to play for the Blues in 99, 00 and 01.

Wasn't a straight swap. Northland were also part of the Chiefs. So the Blues swapped out Counties for NH and Northland.

Just picked my 1996 Chiefs Heritage Jersey and I can't say I'm too impressed for $200. They are Adidas jerseys but the sponsor logos on the arms and back and the Adidas logo on the front are all printed as part of the design. The Chiefs logo itself is pretty much a sticker. The Adidas stripes on the shoulder are also printed as opposed to being embroidered. I also think it fits a bit tighter than the current ones do and they are already tight fit. Definitely looks good but doesn't feel $200 worth.

When I compare my 2011 ABs jersey and my 2014/15 jersey with my 2015 AB they abandoned the embroidered detailing for stick on ones. I like the old school quality feel of the embroidered stuff

For a Chiefs jersey?? For any sporting jersey really? Fucking hell

I inherited this jersey from my old mans work when they moved office, signed by the entire 2000 squad - Lomu, Cully, Tana etc. Used to go to every game with him back in those days as we had season tickets. Some great memories even if we lost as much as we won

just call it your 'lived experience' and you're sweet as bro, postmodernism to the rescue and anyone who corrects you is an oppressor.
