    I like the South Africa jersey. The English one looks like a Christmas jumper.

    It's not bad by any means just that the Wallaby one is nicer. The change of shade and more traditional older CCC jersey colour scheme to it.

    I feel like there's some IRFU spies who have infiltrated London Irish and are slowly turning it into a 5th province.

    I love it.

    Didn't realise LI were leaving the Premiership and joining in the Giro

    About the only good thing is that they finally don't have as many sponsor logos as an F1 car. But that's about it.

    Horrific, like most O'Neills jerseys.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,257 ✭✭✭Hagz


    I think it'll probably look alright on the players.

    One colour is good, shades look all right. But the material and the fit look terrible.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,308 ✭✭✭✭.ak


    I absolutely detest when sponsors insist their logo have a backdrop. It's rotten looking.

    Id say these are training jerseys by the looks of it maybe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,308 ✭✭✭✭.ak


    The pink one is, the rest look like playing jerseys.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,308 ✭✭✭✭.ak


    I like the collars on them, and maybe they fit nice, but it stops there really.

    Pink one is a ladies jersey id say (v-neck) turns out they are the actual jerseys. I dont think they will hold up to a game?

    Yuck. Went for minimalism, ended up boring, just like the current Tigers kit.

    The new Irish owners must be really going native with the O'Neills gear. Surprised the shirt sponsors arent Avonmore and Supermacs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,875 ✭✭✭✭salmocab


    I like the green one think it will look good on the pitch


  • Administrators Posts: 55,461 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    The shiny material looks terrible and cheap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,257 ✭✭✭Hagz


    The current Leicester Tigers kit is the nicest kit hands down. I can't think of any kit that comes close. Maybe Munster.

    I love their HEC kit. Montpellier also usually have great jerseys. I'm probably biased but I love leinster's HEC kit the most.

    Stade Francais black Jersey with the pink flower is my favourite one around at the moment.

    HEC is finished this season. The league strip has another season.

    I think Ulster and Connacht are due new jerseys next season.

    Now that is beautiful. Far too beautiful to be a rugby jersey actually. I actually hate the modern wave of 'stylish' rugby jerseys,it's gotten to the ridiculous point of most clubs trying to outdo each other with garish designs. I don't mind SF doing it as it's their thing, and as far as i know they pioneered this **** habit, but ffs with about half a dozen euro clubs sporting a pink kit lately, it's become a tad overdone.

    If munster brought out a pink jersey id be tempted to stop supporting them until it was rescinded

    In fairness, most of the pink jerseys are for breast cancer and are an alternative strip. I have no problem with them personally.

    Are you sure about that? Think Nottingham wore a pink strip as a once-off to raise money, but Exeter, Cardiff etc had pink as their designated 2nd kit

    I know Cardiff definitely was originally. I'd say it still is. They support Cancer Research Wales and had it on the jerseys. A good few others have done it as well. I remember Newcastle for one.
