    The AB training jersey I saw at Rebel Sport was fuckin' ugly.

    The council worker edition

    All the tradies will snap them up as soon as they hit the bargain bin!

    Adidas All Blacks gear and bargain bin, I'm not sure there is any correlation there....

    That orange top is pretty bad. The design on the front almost looks like a tyre track. Perhaps we should give some to the Lions.....

    Check this out , on ebay , what is it ?

    Wasn't this produced for the AB's v USA game, I have a vague memory of it being made for AIG employees - but thats probably wrong...

    This wouldn't have happened under Sir Richies Reign. I reckon he had a big say on the traditional nature of AB jerseys and how they should look, or at least his pretty staunch leadership team - gnarly ol' veterans n' all. Get a few of these newbies in there and look whats happened...

    So if they were looking at playing Coles against the Chiefs does that mean the AB's will be available for that game? Anyone know when their training camp starts?

    Pretty sure ABs aren't available only for the Lions game.

    So I see AB's are named June 8th. Hurricanes vs Chiefs is June 9th. I think the AB's have to play that game right? Its a hell of a disruption to be training all week with your team just to have a number be made not eligible the day before.

    All ABs will be available for those games (although how fond Hansen will be of Umaga if he runs a full strength team 4 days after Apia remains to be seen).

    Hansen as recently as two weeks ago said for the remaining three franchises players will be released on a case by case basis.

    I actually don't mind the new jersey . It's certainly better than the tight white collar one we wore circa 2011

    This is a very concerning article, apparently the Haka has lost its mystique. Thankfully no mention of Aura, who I assume has been hiding out in Christchurch the past few months.
