You are wrong there. It is a primary commercial opportunity for the club. The shirts should be interesting enough to ensure good sales, this years unfortunately aren't going to. I've yet to find anyone who has said they like the shirts and that won't translate well into sales.

The commercial aspects of the club still seem to be underperforming to me. We're still not showing healthy profits despite the improvement since the ground move. With the cap where it is, Saints should be posting big profits, quite a few other clubs are.

Saints have just announced sales now exceeding last years launch, so maybe we on here are very much a minority with the real world.

Interesting. Is that because it's out a week earlier this year?

I don't think the club jersey should ever change. By doing so you are only diluting the brand.

Perhaps that's the intension- for the top to reflect the new Saints brand of rugby.

Think we've missed a trick. We could have brought back the 1996 kits, 20 years after winning the 1st Super League.

Agree in some ways, I always thought we should have kept the town's coat of arms, instead of the saint figure.

Normally clubs get one good shirt a season and if they're lucky the rest are a bonus
Will any Saints fans buy any of these two monstrosities?

Both are definitely the worst kits that i have ever seen from any club in the history of SL.......What's going on with your marketing team?

Haha. The most OTT post i've ever seen on here, and i've seen some bad ones. I can think of loads of kits from SL clubs over the past few years that have been a lot worse than our new ones.

I will be buying one, along with the plenty of other Saints fans that have already got theirs.

To be fair, the home kit is pretty shocking. The away one is quite nice once you get your head around the colours.

To be fair, saying "Both are definitely the worst kits that i have ever seen from any club in the history of SL" is the most ridiculous and over exaggerated thing that I have ever read on this forum. It is laughable.
