    Crazy thing is if you look at most top sports leagues, the designs are simple (NFL, NBA, most soccer/football kits), so it's not as if they are following trends with these designs.

    And if you listen to their fans, they still think any new Jersey is ugly. I'm a jets fan (for my sins), and they released a new Jersey this year that was basically a slightly different shade of green with a white stripe on each shoulder. Fan base likes the green, but still thinks the jerseys are hideous.

    Fans hate change.

      The Waikato jersey is still the world's ugliest. Especially paired with those white shorts

                  Young whippersnapper.

                  I recall listening to the game on 2ZA where Chippie Semenoff kicked the penalty.

                  I was torn as we'd not long shifted from Northland.

                    I had to google to see when you last held the Shield. Seems like you might have attracted a "Curse of the Bambino" due to your disgraceful conduct as shield holders! 🙂

                    You might need to have an exorcism at Okara Park - send offerings to Otago and Southland, summon and worship Laurie Mains, sacrifice a few virgins if you can find them...that sort of thing!

                          Probably posted elsewhere as it's old news but he's gone back to the Glasgow Warriors.

                            Because it doesn't relate to 2020, and lacking a better thread to post this, I'll post this here.

                              Tim Perry.. of all the players who had multiple starts for the Blues he was the worst. Second place is miles behind him. Think of all the crap players that played for the Blues over the decades Tim Perry was number one. Well done.

                                  @antipodean It Reminds me of Australian Rugby putting a Wallaby jersey on a muppet like Nick Cummins or The Honey Badger or Bunny badger what ever he was called.

                                        Not to mention a fairytale end to his career winning the M10 Cup with the Mako in his final match.

                                        Six test caps.

                                        And even memorable for the Blues....
