    @Bovidae said in Super Rugby News:

    New Zealand teams will wear special jerseys this weekend, which will be worn when facing the Lions later this year.

    Why? do they need a road test?

    That's just odd (or have I got the wrong end of the stick?)

    @Crucial No idea of the reason. Just mentioned in this article. I'm sure they want to sell the limited edition jerseys before the Lions tour starts.

      Cheers @Bovidae I was hunting for the link to that.

      Yeah, I guess it is a modelling job for sales purposes

        Previews of those jerseys were posted on the Adidas instagram account:

          Well at least the Canes one would be an improvement on the bob the builder outfits they currently sport

                      A better view of the Chiefs jerseys. No better than the current jersey IMO.

                          Also, I would have thought that the Crusaders would be wearing an alternative strip vs the Lions to avoid a colour clash.

                            Haha if you're going to get them to look mean then probably best not to use Ben from Accounts. Dixon would probably be a better fit.

                                  he's tall as, just look at the line on the wall, he's massif bro!

                                  Very busy jersies, blues probably least offensive with the least contrast in colours...wont be buying any though

                                    that photo is so fucking stupid. What marketing genius saw that and said "yes! that's the exact look we are going for"

                                    Like when you are taking a photo of a fish you caught, and you hold it out in front of you to make it look bigger, they've certainly strategically places Ardie (and teased his hair) for maximum height game #disguisethemidget

                                    I am sure the development players will be stoked to run around in those shitty jerseys. Won't the crusaders one clash?

                                      Sumo has mentioned Kings most likely team to get cut from Super Rugby but that the Cheetahs might also be in danger. Interesting.

                                        The Cheetahs that cleaned up the Currie Cup and took last year's finalist to the wire in round one? How is it a competition? The Kings suck.

                                          They need to do something. I only watch games involving at least 1 NZ side these days. At one stage Super Rugby was clearly the world's best club rugby comp. Now, there are a mixture of excellent teams and some absolute dross. I just hope SA realise it's in their interests to be pragmatic - less is sometimes more.
