[Kiwiwomble]

@Dan54 to be clear, not worried about them being announced on a wednesday or thursday or sat morning, more just that it is regular and coordinated

[Yeetyaah]

All teams should be named on Thursday, no exceptions.

EXPANDED APPAREL RANGE KEY TO NEW ‘CLASSIC’ NZ SUPER RUGBY PARTNERSHIP

EXPANDED APPAREL RANGE KEY TO NEW ‘CLASSIC’ NZ SUPER RUGBY PARTNERSHIP Heritage jerseys, expanded product ranges and quick turn arounds are some of the features exciting the five New Zealand Super Rugby Clubs having signed a collective five year agreement with Australasian apparel brand – Classic....

"Super Rugby NZ apparel will be available through the Super Rugby Club Stores from December 1, 2023, with all major sporting goods retailers also stocking the product."

"The flexibility of Classic also enables the introduction of heritage and special themed jerseys, something which is commonplace in leagues like the NBA and NRL." ....I'm a sucker for apparel, anything that looks good with the Chiefs logo, i'll buy it (still gutted i missed out on the limited edition '96 throwback Chiefs jersey adidas had out a couple of years ago):

[Bovidae]

So that Heritage jersey won't be so limited now. At least the originals have a number (out of 300) on them.

[Yeetyaah]

@Bovidae so many fakes of those out there anyway but yeah at least it's made by Adidas so you know it's the OG heritage. I have 2 of them and 2 if the original 96.

Yeah you are right they need some interesting Signings to announce tomorrow.

[Canes4life]

Pretty decent squad for the Rebels including the signing of former Hurricane Matt Proctor.

Waratah's 2024 squad:

[Daffy Jaffy]

[Bovidae]

I wonder if Austin Anderson's NPC form for Waikato sealed his selection? He was in the Brumbies system since leaving NZ so it might have been a natural progression.

[Grooter]

Did we find Lincoln Mcclutchies whereabouts?

[frugby]

Look the Highlanders have not been great, but those odds when compared to the Aussie teams is laughable... at the very least, stick some money on them, and you'll probably get a decent cashout I'd think.

[Canes4life]

@Dan54 I suggested in the Canes thread that he may have taken a wider squad position with the promise of a full contract in 2025 when Morgan’s contract expires. Who knows though.
