RUMOUR 2017, Jersey and Sponsor discussion

[ChewThePhatt]

If the jersey was in Broncos colours, I would actually really like it.

I like the design of it, but I hate the fucking colour.

There is probably a reason why they went with that colour, but it's still shit.

Absolutely agreed. The design is awesome.
But... It's far to similar to "sky blue"
Sky blue FFS

 

[Porthoz]

Like most, I really like the jersey... except it's the fucking WRONG COLOUR!

 

[Broncoman]

It's also a bit to Kiwi for my liking.

 

[Super Freak]

Apparently we will be wearing it against the Warriors.

Is it true Alex Glen and Jordan Kahu designed them ?

Yes, and Adam Blair.

The jersey is called Kakahu Tu Taua, which means battle garment.

 

[Super Freak]

So according to Kahu and Glenn, they chose that colour because they wanted to have a bit of fun with it..

It could have been one of the best jerseys in the Broncos history.. But they completely ruined it with that colour.

 

[Kimlo]

Looks great, I like it.

 

[Rally Towel]

To my surprise it's not that bad a design.

The colour is pretty naff but at least it's far less saturated than the triple turbo teal in the leaked images.

Still wouldn't buy it. I don't see how hard it is to do something left of field for the 9's while retaining distinct club colour schemes.

 

[Morkel]

Different comp, different playing style, why not throw the rules out and go with something different. I like it.

 

[gordjw]

That looks really nice. I'm impressed with all of our jerseys except the away one. I think using the diamonds is tempting fate.

 

[Horseheadsup]

I can deal with the pink we wore, for a good cause the orangey-red jerseys, the sometimes a bit too manly-white colours.

But I refuse to wear blue.
Not Titans blue hues or Sharkey blue.

We won a premiership in white and blue

That's great. Just like our traditional colours with variations here and there.
Bit of a stick in the mud.

 

[Kyall]

I was hoping for a bit more of a darker blue and little less markings on it, I'll go 6.5/10

Yes, and Adam Blair.

I in no way claim to speak Maori, but I think they might have fucked up their little name, or they have gone about it the wrong way. Do you have the actual Maori spelling with the macrons on the letters?

 

[Ironbroncos]

Its more of a polynesian design on the jersey not just Maori. I like it, the colour is abit of a 'yeah nah' though ..

 

[porouian]

I in no way claim to speak Maori, but I think they might have ****ed up their little name, or they have gone about it the wrong way. Do you have the actual Maori spelling with the macrons on the letters?

I'll assume it's meant to be kākahu (clothing) tū taua (warrior arts) which is close I guess. I'm no expert either though.
