@booboo for sure. We all know the NZR big dogs read the fern.
Only by proxy. The NZR big dogs read what journalists write and the journalists read our posts so they know what to write about.

The other part of this story is that the yellow and white jerseys that the Bulls wore in the second half were meant to be unveiled for their away match against the Waratahs on March 21.
I'm sure their fans are devastated they didn't keep that big reveal for the Tahs game.
I think having a half arsed, Landers half time actual reveal, and pointless official reveal for the Tahs is about the right amount of respect that these 3 teams deserve ATM

This article explains why the away jerseys are certain colours.
This year, the five New Zealand Super Rugby franchises are wearing new alternative jerseys as part of Adidas' 'Prime Blue' range, which are made from in part from plastic that has been picked up before it reaches the ocean.
As a result, the colour palette is limited to blues, whites, greens and greys, which causes a problem for the Highlanders because their 'home' jersey is already blue.

Blues, Highlanders, NSW, Rebels, Stormers and Bulls all wear blue. 40% of the teams in the competition wear that colour as their primary jersey

@Bovidae Already knew that re the available colour range. But it's no excuse for adidas / NZR. An alternate jersey first and foremost needs to be significantly different to the regular jersey, and ideally clearly representative still of the region.

To be fair, I don't know how any of the officials could be reasonably be expected to have forseen this.

As an alternate jersey it's better than all the other ones out this year that make every team look like the Blues.
What I really don't get is that the Highlanders had an alternate jersey that didn't clash with any other team, that was very distinctive, and that despite early misgivings I think most fans came to like it, yet they changed it to yet another shade of blue. (I guess the bright green just wasn't selling very well at Rebel Sport).

bit of a bump
do we think we'll get new clash/change/away jerseys next year? we cant have all those clashes again can we?
-
@Kiwiwomble the legend of Marty banks shared a picture of Razor holding what looked like a new Crusaders away jersey. Personally I hope we have new away jerseys as they were all bad except the Blues' one and the clashes were hideous.
