RUMOUR 2017, Jersey and Sponsor discussion

[Cult]

Wolverine is yellow and blue... Parra doesn't deserve him though.

 

[Sproj]

That is not bad at all is it!

 

[Kyall]

I really like the iron man jersey but will never happen- dragons. I really think that the Thing is the best option they could make a great jersey.

 

[Sproj]

The Thing would look terrible, plus his las incarnation in the last Fantastic Four was horrid. That movie must be up there with the worst of all time.

It'll depend what movie(s) they're marketing at the time. I think Cable & Deadpool is due in 2017, but yes, Vision fits our colour scheme to a certain degree, if a new Avengers one comes out.

The new Wolverine (Logan) is released in March 2017.

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 in May 2017.

Spiderman Homecoming in July 2017.

Thor 3 in November 2017...

Sheesh! There are a few to pick from!

 

[Morkel]

I guess it depends what round we wear it then!

 

[Super Freak]

I wouldn't rule out Flash.

He is actually the closest one to our colours that isn't already taken.

The Flash is from DC

 

[Super Freak]

The Flash is from DC

I'm aware.

 

[Unbreakable]

I'm aware.

It's the Marvel Superheroes round, DC superheroes aren't a possibility.

 

[Super Freak]

It's the Marvel Superheroes round, DC superheroes aren't a possibility.

Who says it's not a possibility?

It would be naive to think ISC wouldn't pursue the option to do DC Superheroes, as well.

It would make them more money. Businesses are always looking to make more money.

 

[Unbreakable]

Who says it's not a possibility?

Umm.. common sense, you know Marvel & DC are competitors right? The NRL partnered exclusively with Marvel for this promotion.

 

[Morkel]

Souffs did a Superman one but it was a standalone.

 

[Unbreakable]

Souffs did a Superman one but it was a standalone.

Yeah that was because of Crowe's affiliation with Man of Steel

 

[Sproj]

@Super Freak, you noob. Haha

 

[Super Freak]

And Melbourne?

@Super Freak, you noob. Haha

What?

I am fully aware Flash is DC and I am fully aware of the competition between Marvel and DC.

I'm also aware that the ISC and NRL are not Marvel and DC and couldn't give a rats ass about the rivalry between the two companies. All they will care about is whether they will make more money.

As I said before, it would be naive for people to think that a business wouldn't pursue the option.

It likely wouldn't happen. All I'm saying is don't rule it out. It's possible.

 

[Sproj]

But any business worth their weight in gold, and especially one as big as Marvel or DC would make sure that their merchandise company (which in this case is ISC serving I that capacity) sign a clause in their contract that they will not cross-promote a rival, particularly their biggest one. This is the reason why in many cafes or restaurants, etc only have Pepsi or Coke available, not both.

Unless of course your club owner is Russell Crowe.

 

[Cult]

To be fair to Super Freak, Marvel is owned by Disney and it's entirely possible that by the time Marvel jersey round comes around, they could have purchased DC Comics too? It would be naive to think that isn't possible, I suppose.
