Home shirt is fine, like the idea of replicating the Grand Final winning away shirt but looks a bit bland to me.

How nce is the Hull KR kit? Why oh why can we not just ditch the stupid vee design for one year and have a retro shirt that actually has some history.

Very Nice.
I'd never lose the vee from the saints shirt, but I'm not a fan of the latest design.

To be fair, it's not like we started wearing the V yesterday. It's been on our kit, in one form or another, for fifty years - just as long as the red band ever was, I think.

Yeah, so package it up as a 'heritage' shirt design. Design it like Hull KRs and have a similar design in Meninga blues for the away shirt. THEN the season after, bring back a classic St-George-esque vee shirt.

Just because we moved to the vee doesn't mean we can't ever deviate from that.

I don't dispute that. I was responding to your implication that the red vee doesn't have any history.

It is surprising that we haven't had the hoop come back for 1 season, normally rugby and football clubs jump at the chance to market a retro design, plus the fans' demand for it has been there for years.

They should have a 3 year cycle for the home shirt - Heritage/retro year , standard red vee year, progressive year.

I will be wearing my retro hooped shirt next season, just can't buy the new one which must be a strong candidate for one of the worst designs of all time.

Yup, didn't think last season's could be trumped, but this is a new low. ISC were a bit predictable, but give me a solid looking kit any day over these O'Neills.
