    @Snowy Unless the Brumbies wear their predominantly white home jerseys with blue and - particularly - the Blues their white away jerseys with blue.

    Chiefs

    Predominantly grey jersey, grey collar and cuffs. Grey shorts.

    I don't think the Chiefs jersey is as bad as it initially looked. The detail is nice. Just very boring lack of colour.

    I would definitely NOT buy these shirts online. From the pictures, it's just not clear what the exact colour is. This is from the Adidas website. Much lighter grey.

    the game against the bulls was also read bad last year because their jersey has both light and dark blue.

    Our jersey was actual green last year and the players still struggled, this one because its not bright white but white with cow shit green all over it...still might not be the best

    @Stargazer 100%

    also don't know why us and the chiefs done get colour badges

    What? Like girl guides get badges?

    They do a course and get a badge? You've lost me. Participation badges next...

    I can be smug, the Blues have actually won a few games recently.

    @Kiwiwomble Yes, you're right. The Chiefs one doesn't have colour at all, and the Highlanders one looks like it has been soaked in bleach.

    On the whole the away jerseys are an abomination.

    ‘Keep it simple stupid’, perhaps taken a bit too far.

    Right , so you just want some colour in the logos.

    Fair enough, they are dull.

    @Snowy anything to make them less dull would help...and also...why?

    why?

    Ummm....I got nothing. It doesn't confuse jerseys and makes them less attractive to fans.

    Some marketing genius will have an answer...maybe.

    TBH I don't mind the grey shirts and there'd have to be a major miscommunication for there to be a clash with an opposing team.

    Yep. If you know that they are going to be wearing a white / grey jersey it's pretty simple.
    Doesn't seem to have been the case in the past although it still shouldn't have happened.
    I'm not sure that anyone thought about it until it went wrong. Was it the Bulls that changed Jerseys at half time?

    Agreed. My first comment was "couldn't they have washed it?"

    I don't have a problem with the detail on the jerseys.

    They've gone with plain white in the past and it's pretty bloody bland.

    They are trying to sell these jerseys after all.

    @KiwiMurph if they really want to see then they should do what most Highlanders fans (that's ive talked too) would prefer and that's an Maroon away jersey

    @Kiwiwomble Agreed - though wasn't the whole shift to lime green a distinct move by Highlanders to try and separate them from Otago/Southland provincial rugby and make Highlanders their own entity?

    @KiwiMurph from memory the first green jerseys we're supposed to be our home/main jersey for that reason....but they bailed from that idea pretty quick because the fans didn't want it

    so if we're sticking with the Blue/gold of Otago as the home then....
