    They already have a French jersey.

    My fave would have to be the US one I reckon, although Spain isn't bad either:

    There is massive scope for screwing up an Irish jersey, especially from a non-Irish company, I would be very interested to see what they come up with :D

    The one you're calling ' French' looks more Spanish to me with the Red and Yellow collar and sleeves ...

    And the 'Arevalo' one kind of looks more Portugese to me ... Are you or am I am bit tired before the weekend I don't know my flags?

    Green and Orange with a leprechaun ...? They're Australian not Americans, so what they come up with might actually be 'about right' ...

    Whoa there, New Zealand I believe :D

    Green and orange isn't a great palette all right, you can do real damage with it. Something with "Milk Ras" on it as the text could work I reckon. Step away from the shamrocks and leprechauns.

    Oops ...

    On my ................................... Please don't confuse Kiwis and Aussie's. Easy to spot an Aussie... they all walk around, blond hair, saying "g'day Bruce".

    Kiwis on the other hand are funny, smart, good looking and always smiling.

    On a more serious note I bought some of the gear myself.... have to support the homeland.... and its brilliant. The kee warmers and the solo jacket are super. I think they may even meet euro style rules!
