I love the new one Timmy is wearing in the middle - first time other then the ANZAC one i have ever instantly known I will buy a jersey since the Balmain early 90s.
I got one of the grey ones last year and once I got it has really grown on me.
The mainly black one is so old style and boring with the simple V - not my taste at all and have never owned one either a black version or an orange version we use to have and can't see myself getting one.
As I said above though think that new one is the best we have had personally

They've paid a fortune in sponsorship, so we probably gave them sleeves as well.
I find it hard to get worked up one way or another over the two main jumpers. They're not awful but they're not great. The orange one looks a bit like a South American 2nd division soccer team. As for the grey one, whoever suggested it in the first place should be locked in a dungeon at Concord.
The orange version of the home jersey looked awful.
& yes I'm an old Balmain man.
The only problem with the main is its V plonked in the front of the jersey rather than over the shoulders.
Funny thing is, in the vault we have the perfect option, yet they used it once although admittedly it fell part of the hated 'Balmain' main under humpty.
The 10 year anniversary.
Black home, Gold alternate A, White alternate B for the 30 degree + days.
It surely can't be that hard?

I like the middle jersey. Don't know what it is about the woods jersey I really like the look of it on tv but when I see it in the shops it just doesn't appeal to me to spend the $$$ on it.
Don't go big in the grey one full stop, but my kids all really like it.
given my old man likes the black one, I like the new alternate and my kids like the grey, perhaps the club is onto something by which appeals most fans of varying ages. Although this might be wishful thinking.

I don't know why anyone would be happy with that orange colour. If it is to represent the Balmain side of the merger, it's the wrong colour; the Balmain jersey was gold, not orange.
Somebody mentioned black tigers. What about blue and yellow eels or blue and white bulldogs or how about some red, white and blue roosters. There would be some really strange jerseys out there if they had to represent the actual colour of the club's symbol.

I guess interpretation of colours can vary between people. Now I know the old Balmain Tigers were always described as the black and golds, but if you ask a South African what the colours are on a Springbok jersey its green and gold ( not yellow). Wouldn't think that the orange of Balmain and the yellow on the springbok jersey were similar in anyway but both get described as gold.

The 9's jersey looks great. Don't think it really needed to have the clubs logo on the breast as well though. I think it will sell OK.
