as the lovely Taylor Swift would put it. The merchandise team will no doubt shake off criticism from those with a 95% hate/fake posting record and I think we'll sell an absolute shedload.


The ladies fit ones are pretty nice BTW.

Mine will be irreparably stained with Guinness and Curry within 2 months so the quality is probably academic!

Ive got mine and quite happy with it, after all its a rugby shirt not a frigging Armani suit! Oh and I can get my gut in a large so I cant be that fat either!

Not got mine yet but I'm fairly confident I'll be getting one for Christmas.

If the comments about the quality are true then its disappointing.

Its all very well saying that they are only nylon shirts for wearing to the match but they cost £47.

I would only pay £25-£30 for a shirt for going out in and pay less than than £20 for work shirts, but I still expect them to be reasonably well made, and they are.

Does it really matter if the sleeve hoops don't exacty match the chest? You hardly walk round with your arms pinned to your sides.

Some people will moan at anything.

got mine the other week, looked closely at them, didnt see or was too bothered about the sleeves not matching the hoops, quite happy with it

Nothing wrong with moaning about the quality of our shirts. I have been for years, they're very poor. Although haven't seen the new ones up close.

Indeed. People go into meltdown about not accepting second class rugby on the pitch. Yet it's ok to accept garbage quality on shirts.

At £47 it's steep for a shirt and you'd expect better. Some on here would soon be moaning should their £50 stone island (or some other chavvy brand) top was sub standard

My thoughts exactly.

Its a great design and it will be a shame if its let down by the quality.

Asi I said before I will support the club in other ways with other merchandise. Just today I thought to myself "they cant be that bad" with a fresh set of eyes. But to be honest on half the shirts the badges were not straight and the other half the sponsors badges etc were not either. No matter though, looking forward to the new season. Really looking forward to seeing us with some decent half backs next year, fingers crossed.

Good luck getting a Stone Island top for £50
