9am. I know shirts are completely down to taste, but for mine the trend of Super League away shirts at the moment is horrific - check out Cas, Giants, both Hull teams, and Wigan. What's the thought process there do you think?: https://www.loverugbyleague.com/post/20 ... eague-kits Never understood why teams don't just riff on their club colours, or create a recognisable away pallet to riff on each year.

Well I agree but the answer is that they are there to make money so making them different forces a new purchase for those not wanting to be seen in last years shirt.
Away shirt or '3rd shirt' is often just a fashion item.
I think we've done it exactly right this year.

Income, for sure. But I'd love to see the numbers and see how that stacks up against the lack of brand-building, especially now every game's on TV. NRL clubs do it brilliantly - whether home or away, when you switch on you can always tell it's Brisbane, Melbourne, Parramatta, Cowboys etc: https://leagueunlimited.com/news/41603- ... l-jerseys/

The Warrington away shirt is very nice

Completely agree. Keeping a visibly recognised brand is vital. Which is why the Wakefield 'Leeds' shirt was such a poor decision last year.
