@gt12 Apart from this one I saw they'd made up for some weird French movie I saw late at night.

When did they wear that jersey?..dont recall that game at all..

[taniwharugby]

@Chris-B. and in that movie didnt we lose, the fact there are 2 halfbacks there, is that a surprise?

@taniwharugby Dunno, I didn't watch it till the end, but it was looking likely. Being French I was expecting a gorgeous heroine and very few clothes, but it just dragged on and on like it was a real footy match.

I give it one ruptured testicle out of five!

@Chris-B.

I must be the only person in the world who likes that jersey.

Blame the French, not the grey!

I liked that jersey too and was tempted to buy it at the time.

But I can't remember seeing an AB fan wearing one since then.

Count me in as a fan of that Jersey too. We should've tried it out in a test match.

I had the training jersey they did that was similar. Quite liked the colour. It hasn't been worn for a very long time.

@Crucial don't you be putting that on any time soon bro!!

Don't worry.

The reason I had it is that I'm a bit old school and won't wear a black replica. IMO the black jersey itself should have remained player only but I understand the commercial reasons for selling them.

[Crucial]

We aren't so bad when it come to horrible jerseys though. Think of some of the abortive messes the Scots, English, French, Convicts have had....

The Poms even played in purple (sorry, Aubergine) which made their fatties look like Barney the dinosaur.

[Paekakboyz]

I quite liked them. Not a fan of the Lions tour version, but they are under promo lights so they might look better on field... under lights. Doh! didn't think that one through!

[Bones]

Yeah I think this new one is a bit naff and that's pretty rare for me. Not a big fan of the badge and as has been pointed out the shiny bits seem a bit tacky.

[Crucial]

Every year, new jersey, everyone hates it, then after the first win everyone goes "it doesn't look anywhere near as bad as it did in the modelling session"

Those don't even look like the playing jerseys to me. They don't fit properly and adidas has put a massive amount of research into fit and muscle support/blood flow etc.

The AB training jersey I saw at Rebel Sport was fuckin' ugly.

[taniwharugby]

@Bovidae haha WTAF

Wont sell many of those I expect!
