exchange rate is a killer! Can't wait till my trip back next year, will be swimmming in pounds!

Cronulla Baz

A Storm shirt for me.

I have family in Melbourne and have managed to see a few games when I've been over to visit.

They're my 2nd team even if they are a set of cheats.

Well done Rich. Other forum members have been less than complimentary about you in the past, but I have always thought you were a good bloke who clearly has forgotten more about RL than your average RLFans user will ever know


Make sure you have 'Bazza' printed across the back and a big number 11 on there too.

Make sure you buy these direct from t club's as they will get maximum profit's as opposed to given a lot to to the NRL

I collect all old Aussie shirts to be more specific ones with the NSWRL badge 1980's I have at least one from every club including the likes of Perth W.R. Auckland Warriors Illawarra Steelers and Western Suburbs etc etc.

There is however one omission from my collection THE SHARKIES

Sounds like you have got some moneys worth of shirts there.

Get yourself a Cronulla one...made by Westmont, sponsored front and back by Reebok with AKAI on the sleeves if you can find one.

I personally think you can't beat the old heavyweight cotton ones from that era.. great quality and made to last.


Out of interest if anyone is considering buying one of those 'players cut' Australian Kangaroos jumpers... measure your own jerseys and then yourself before you buy one. I tried on the biggest one they had (2XL) and it fits more like a medium/large

You can pick them up cheap in the UK. Also if you do buy them over the internet you'll get hit for import duty.

I'll be getting a Warriors.

Last season I got the 15th Anniversary and the Heritage Jerseys.

Whenever I visit my family in NZ I always get a couple of matches in.

BTW I am not a Kiwi.

I like one of the Panthers designs, think it's the retro round shirt. Won't be buying it unless they become cheap though.

Wellington Orcas! May not be in the NRL but should be

Heatspares, used to be on Chain Lane but now is on the industrial estate at the bottom of Hinkley Road, Islands Brow is it? Don't know what the road is called.

They have Newcastle Knights home and away, Penrith retro, Penrith home, Souths home and away, Manly home and away and Parramatta home and away £30 each.

I'd have Bazza on there with a big number 2.

Nothing like the old cotton kits. I had a Manly P&O one when I was a kid and the most recent one I had was South Queensland Crushers in about '96. Bloody nice shirt that was. The new shirts do nothing for me I'm afraid - same for ones over here, too many sponsors makes it look a bit tacky IMO.

With you on that one mate. South Queensland Crushers was a top jersey.

Worth a bit of cash now as well seeing as they didn't survive for long.


I think the sponsors can make or break a footy jumper too... I mean 'Steggles'?? I wouldnt want to walk around with that on my jumper if I was a roosters supporter.

At home I have a Gold Coast Seagulls jersey, I don't need out.

For anyone whose struggling to remember that one:



I gave that one away to a kid younger than me so he could use it as a training jersey!



I've only seen the Canterbury one so far and it's looking promising, made by Canterbury for a start and I can only see 2 sponsors!

I've got Roosters and Rabbitohs normal jersey's and a Wests retro one. They're all bloody massive though compared to UK sizing.

I'd rather buy International jersey's now.

I dont support any NRL team really.

The Canterbury top is just what a RL jersey should look like.

To be honest I have really struggled to get a Sharkies shirt, I mean it has been easier to get shirts of clubs who are no more, than a Cronulla Sutherland shirt, and if I'm honest I've almost given up. When one has come up they usually are numbered which I don't want or sorry Baz are that disgusting Reebok shirt, I want one that is sponsored by Aussieduct or Aussieduct2000 or the other one was it Pepsi or coors I forget now?

I do have a Sharkies pinbadge as some kind of compo !!

Despite having probably the biggest Reebok logo ever made on the front and in almost equally big font on the back the jersey was actually made by Westmont!
