England have never played on a chevron - if they did, they'd be wearing St Helens shirts.u

I know that's the problem, and the consequent non-sales in Wigan, but still. I think a double red chevron, or a chevron and a hoop, or ....

Then again, I want GB back too.

On the website it says the England badge is embroidered on this time, so maybe the quality is better...

It doesn't actually IIRC, it says Puma embroidered then a "woven England badge" or something like that? I struggled to interpret it TBH, hopefully it means they're both embroidered.

They did pre-war. In fact there's evidence that the England touring side of the 20s or 30s were the first team to wear chevrons. The Kangaroos started wearing the gold vees on the green jersey a few years later and 75 years on they still do. Meanwhile England/GB changes its jersey every second year and they always suck.

What if it was like the Canterbury Bulldogs chevron? Would it look like St Helens then? More like an upside-down triangle rather than a chevron sorta thing?
