I reckon that would make a better home jersey. The blue is pretty but could have had the same design worked into it. That's choice. If they release T-shirt versions, I'll be a buyer.
These are their training tees. Not quite the same design though.

The irony is the Brumbies squad looks awfully like an ACT branch of Moana Pasifika anyway.

If it was in landscape, and could see most of the team at a time, maybe.

'It's not easy': Young Kiwi's unusual path to Moana Pasifika
Many believed Lincoln McClutchie should have been a Super Rugby player long before now.
Paywalled..
I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before? A couple of other franchises were chasing his signature
McClutchie held conversations with several teams for the 2022 campaign, including the Crusaders and Hurricanes. However, Moana Pasifika came to him early in the piece, and he jumped at the opportunity for a role the size of which he likely wouldn't have had with other franchises.
Moana Pasifika adds firepower to coaching team – Moana Pasifika
