www.irishrugby.ie Being a traditionalist, I hate it. Maybe if they added a cape and a mask it might look better. Definitely more Batman than John Hayes.
I dont like rugby one bit myself, and dont as such have an opinion on the shirt, but thats trés georges street attire.
Don't like it either - but then I'm not a finely tuned athlete, I'm not even an out of tune athlete. Listening to Neil Francis yesterday and it seems that the design is simply practical from the point of view of guys getting grabbed by the shirt or collar.
Very true Phill...I personally think it's a great jersey, both practically, and for casual wear...it compliments your body shape, and fits perfectly...the colour is o little darker, but the white one is amazing...
Still dont like the shirt, tho my wife gave it to me as a present. To be honest I look more like vicky Pollard than Brian O driscoll in it.
Its the same as the new Pompey goalie jersey because its made by Canterbury as so is the Ireland rughby jersey.
