    Ha! Didn't even see that until you pointed it out. Lost in the way the link posts up so big.

    Still, it had to be done by some fuckwit, may as well be me.

    It must be bloody hard for the marketing guys to keep coming up with variations of 'Black'.

    We've had blackest black.

    Maybe they have found a way to incorporate a black hole on the front row's jerseys? AS they pack down for a scrum the entire opposition pack just disappears?

    Adidas will reveal that the new jersey has the DNA of 30 living former All Blacks" woven into the fibres of the new revolutionary material. When questioned who the 30 former players were Adidas would not be drawn in and gave nothing away, "they know who they are". What was revealing was that they neither confirmed or denied whether Ben Atiga, Dion Waller, Jason Hewett, Dallas Seymour, Gordon Slater, Kupu Vanisi, Sam Harding were amongst the chosen group.

    @ACT-Crusader there seems to be a certain province/franchise missing from the players mentioned....

    They couldn't use Sam Broomhall's DNA or the truth would have got out that he was in fact the love child of Robbie Deans and the Briscoes lady.

    using an AB jersey for a dropsheet is a new level of fandom

    Aaron Smith's DNA was also found on the jersey after it was taken into a fitting room by one of the girls from the shop.

    That would actually be ok, because the Briscoes lady is some weird all-powerful hybrid, who doesn't age and kills any challengers to her spokesperson title.

    instead of pissing around with the jerseys what the Adidas engineers really need to put their minds to is some sort of hair superglue for Izzy.

    I calculate the drag from the comb over turning into an airbrake is costing him at least 2 secs per 100m - this could become crucial when running for the corner.
