    One criticism of the refs is that there seemed to be a lot of crooked lineout throws let go when the opposition did compete.

    I was disappointed that the Chiefs didn't compete more, as it forces the hooker to nail their throw.

    @Bovidae i noticed that as well and started to get shitty about it...then we did a few crooked ones and thought...at least hes being consistent and then decided it probably had little to no effect on the game so would rather play on than pull it back

              Read the captions a little closer and you might figure out what they are. I've seen them all and there's a theme to them.

                  Embarrassing if so. Leave that to the NRL if that’s what it is. Would looks ridiculous if that theme was copied.

                  Here’s hoping it’s the 1996 jerseys

                    @Landers92 plus the SA teams did it probably over a decade ago...you know...when marvel was big...rather than when its a bit of a joke

                        Heritage jerseys are coming for the Chiefs at least as I've seen that one, not vintage jersey design related.

                            Had the same thought, I guess the last Wolverine movie was R rated so not suitable? Idk.

                                I’ll look at the positive and acknowledge the fact they are actually making an effort and no doubt will be talked about all across social media which is one of the main objectives. That and targeting the younger generations. Just a shame it’s Marvel in my opinion.

                                  The new CEO is willing to try new things and that’s a positive in itself. Yes the Fantasy league might follow a fairly simple structure but that’s on purpose to allow previous non-players to get used to the format. Now with these Marvel jerseys it’s all about bringing a bit of fun to the game for that younger generation.

                                  When you include the recent release of Rugby 25, albeit the gameplay being a bit average, it’s all creating plenty of chatter online which is only a good thing for the game.

                                      Would Crusaders be Red Hulk Or just Blackadder: "Red Hulk smash. Knee. Ankle. Shoulder. Whatever body part is handy on self."

                                        I think the Chiefs one looks pretty good. Crusaders is naturally ruined by the sponsor. Not sure about Highlanders.

                                          On the topic of jerseys, how do the sizes run for the classic strips?
