Hmmm

Wow - that was close! I prefer the official though as I thought Craegus' guess looked too hi-vis 'OH&S' style for me.
 
I love the new Home jersey but upset with the awayjersey. Not so much the design (although I dont like the design so much) but more the fact that the obvious alternate strip would be just the inverse of the Home, being predominantly Gold with black above the white chevron.

But since the Wests side of the Merger have dominated the Balmain side on the board, the orange has disappeared. To me everytime I see the white alternate, I just SMH at the pettiness.
 
Wests Tigers reveal 2017 Jersey range
Wed 2nd November, 03:00PM
>
Wests Tigers have today revealed the Club's home and away jerseys for season 2017.
>
The black jersey will again feature as the Club's primary home jersey, with slight changes to the upper chest and arms from the 2016 main jersey. The new jersey still maintains a similar design to last year's strip, with white and orange featuring prominently above the chevron.
>
Wests Tigers will also have just one away jersey in 2017 instead of the two alternate jerseys in 2016\. The new-look design fades from white to black with a bold orange trim, proudly showing the Club's logo on the upper chest, with new white shorts to match.
>
In a new addition to the home and away jerseys in 2017, the Wests Tigers foundation Club logos (Balmain and Western Suburbs) both feature on the upper back of the jersey.
>
Earlier this week, the Club revealed the full off-field merchandise range for 2017.
>
Wests Tigers will also reveal the Club's 2017 Auckland Nines jersey in the coming weeks.

So is all that stuff about having to keep a jersey for 2 years a myth?
People who bought the 2016 Alternate probably feel a bit ripped off.
 
You mean the orange one?

Wasn't it suggested it will turn up as a third jersey?

We haven't yet seen the full range including nines etc

Happy will be buying a media polo again (Well Mum and the kids can get it for Dad's birthday )

Also need a new gnome , One of the kids booted the footy into Moltz the gnome and he got busted up

Knee or shoulder? What will you call the new gnome?

Yep, the orange one with diagonal black line.
It won't be there as a third jersey according to this line in the announcement:

"Wests Tigers will also have just one away jersey in 2017 instead of the two alternate jerseys in 2016."
 
I reckon that away jersey will sell alright with kids.
A Best and Less version without all the logos would look good.

Ah yup. Fair enough Sabre. Good spotting.

So we will likely have in addition to the above, nines, WIL & indigenous? Maybe heritage as well?

I prefer Creagus' design with the orange sleeves - looks me complete in my opinion.

Plus I'm not a fan of jerseys having different coloured 'cuffs' to the rest of the sleeve.

Missing your point ink.
 
Yes but I meant the "orange jersey" has disappeared. The most obvious and best alternate strip would have been the inverse of the home strip, predominately Orange. Orange is a distinct colour that stands out and is unique to us in the comp.

Watch Penrith slowly claim orange over time as we let it slide

Agree that it stands out, along with the Black and White. It's good to see a sea of Orange at home games,
makes us unique.
 
Firstly thanks for the comments on my guess, I appreciate it everyone.

Hmmm

Maybe he has a time machine and seen it in the future lol. That's freaky identical.

Just a pure guess based on that backpack and information I was given.

Also perhaps a preview of the 9's jersey (from the video on the website):

Loving the foundation club logos. Should have been there from day 1\. Hopefully a perm addition.

Nod to the past whilst looking forward under as I said earlier what appears to be one consistent identity.

Only the Main must be kept for 2 years use to be 3…2015/16 were the same looked diff cause of the change in sponsor...I bought a 2015 one

Away Nines Alternates Indig Superhero WIL etc etc can change whenever they want...
