The main problem is the commercial imperative which dictates new shirts virtually every season. Like most stuff done in such a 'bulk' manner, getting a 'classic design' is more down to pure luck than anything else. It's certainly a fact that they aren't going to come up something stunning every year, or even very often in truth....when you also add in that they're not going to please everyone anyway, I guess they're pretty much on a hiding to nothing.

In that case why don't they make, say, 5 design templates and then encourage the fans to vote on their favourite design? Not every year I accept but at least it would give the fans a say in the shirt, given that they are are the intended consumers of the product. Surely this would be a good marketing idea?

Failing that, I reckon we should let Bullseye design it each year.

A distinct lack of sponsors on the shirt

Both excellent ideas

The shirt shown in the T & A has Omar Khans logo. The one in the League Weekly shows Rajas and Sovereign Health Care. Take your pick.

Am I the only person that likes this shirt?

To be honest I'm not too fussed what kit we play in,I prefer the old fashioned red amber and black hoops,was it 2008 when we had that last

2007 was the year we had the white jersey with the red, amber and black hoop in the middle. Hands down the greatest kit we've had during the Super League era.

The 2014 kit reminds me of the limited edition World Club Challenge shirt we had during the 1997 season.

Yes you are right it was 2007,I just had a picture of Cardiff 2007 in my mind when Ganson and Ashley Clown played a blinder
