Maybe it was the lighting in Canberra, but the Clan looked a fucking LOT like the Blues in this.
The only jersey that really matters this year is our club's Charity Jersey. Bidding will open soon.

What's the problem? I like them and think they're a great idea.
Sorry you're being forced to buy one...

You know there's a reply button against posts right?
Anyway, sounds like I'll have to get one then.

The canes blues and saders ones are Hawaiian style with flowers and stuff. What's with the Chiefs one having minivans and surfboards? It looks like boys' pajamas by comparison

just another thing that makes me reminiscence about the gold ole days when rugby used to be a winter sport...

The Landers v Bulls clash was a farce. There is a fucking SR jersey schedule published which even the media can access so how this happens is beyond me. Even more odd considering when the Crusaders and Canes were debuting their horrific alternative strips, the Highlanders boasted they would only wear theirs if there was a genuine clash. Hmmmm.
Adidas and NZR are making a joke, a mockery, of the Kiwi teams' away strips this year, for a marketing gimmick.
The away strip should be an inversion of the regular strip (ie Highlanders wear maroon and gold, Crusaders black with red etc) or at least something clearly symbolic of the region ala the NBAs City Edition jerseys which may not be in the same colours as any regular jersey but feature something distinctive of the home city or region. Adidas' marketing speel about the 'braided rivers' on the Crusaders' alternative strip is tenuous at best, while the colour is symbolic only of the sludge you get when you recycle ocean garbage.
Save the out-there shit for training strips as in recent years when the Crusaders has been at times teal and purple. Ironically this season the Crusaders training jersey is basically black.

Two minor points, and not disagreement at all.
- It's semantics but the term "away" strip should be "alternative" strip. Only change jerseys if there is a clash. In the old days it was always the home team who wore the alternate strip (I got told once it was because that had easier access to an alternative set, coz the visitors would have onky brought the one set with them). Can see the point that the visiting team may perhaps do that in thus day and age.
- I essentially agree about inverting the primary jersey colours, however I'd have no issue with the alternative strip using colours from other provinces within the franchise either.
