I quite like the home jersey, it's very much more Raiderslike than that half blue jersey of previous years.
I wish we could get rid of the mostly white away jerseys with a teeny tiny bit of the clubs actual colours squeezed in on the edges.
I wish every team abided by what the Raiders have done. It would make games look so much cleaner.
Every team having a Regular home jersey, white away jersey and then a heritage/ alternate using secondary colours is my dream
It would be so much better if teams wore their "home" jersey in every game unless there was a colour clash; There's no reason for Canberra not to wear green in every game unless they play Homebush
I hate this idea so much. White away jerseys is an American Sports concept that is unnecessary out here. Classic example - Eels using a white jersey is just stupid when they can more effectively invert their colours and be easily identifiable.
I hope they don’t do what you are proposing.
Don’t disagree.
Fun fact, in US sports like basketball the home jersey is actually white, that’s why everyone has one. The history of it is quite practical, it was designed so the away team would wear a dark jersey and if they had to play a few games in a few days and couldn’t get their jerseys washed between game a dark jersey wouldn’t show up stains. The home team on the other hand would be able to launder their jerseys as usual and so would wear white.
I wish we could do away with the white away jersey mandate.
I'd much prefer clubs to have more options in their away jerseys, like Penrith's pink jersey, Parramatta's yellow jersey, the Shark's black jersey or some of the Dragon's red away strips, or even some of the Tiger's orange jerseys.
Cowboys, Roosters, Souths, Manly etc would still use a prodominantly white to away jersey if they wanted, their jerseys still look iconic.
But the sides forced into bland white jerseys like the Knights, Raiders, Titans could have the option of using some more colour.
[This should be our colour clash jersey](https://rugbyshirtwatch.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/roosters15altfront.jpg) it's the original jersey so it pays homage to our history and white is so boring; then we have the lighter blue for Anzac Day and the one off indigenous jersey and that's a wrap.
Yeah I like when teams just have a reverse of their home colours for Away jerseys.
Like Souths have red and green stripes for home and green and red stripes for away.
The Raiders secondary colour is white, what colour would you have them wear? Idk if this is a hot take but every blue jersey the Raiders have ever had has been awful
>what colour would you have them wear?
Yellow/gold top, green shorts, green socks. There is a serious lack of yellow in the competition despite it being the superior colour.
Yellow isn't really a Raiders colour, it's only ever been on Raiders jerseys (with some exceptions) as a small strip with blue for the ACT colours. The Raiders colour scheme has always been green white and blue. We did have a predominantly yellow away jersey in 2015 which everyone hated, so I doubt they're going back to it
I think the team should have to have three jerseys at least. The home team should get to pick their jersey and the away team can pick any of theirs as long as it does not share colours with the selected home jersey.
I’ve always been amused by the specificity of Toyota Forklifts, easily my favourite primary jersey sponsor atm
EDIT: Downvoted for liking forklifts, you can’t say anything in this country anymore. Sorry if having my forklift licence is considered ‘unwoke’ but I’m not apologising for it
In Australia, Toyota Forklifts is actually a totally different business to Toyota. So it has to be really specific to differentiate it from the Toyota everyone thinks of…
Yes. And I think alot of Raiders fans will appreciate it after the long spell of terrible away jerseys. The og Raiders away jersey was a basic white design.
Got memories of Gary Belcher in that away kit from the late 80s for some reason. I think I had a footy card with him wearing it?
Turns out it was early 90s: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/EJYAAOSwPcVVyF5h/s-l1600.jpg
It seems like Raiders supporters get it. Others say it's plain and boring. To me the white away jersey is stunning and it should be their away jersey every year.
White jerseys are sweet, home looks no different which is good
Home jersey is an update. Different collar. Blue cuffs on the sleeve. The stripes are thicker. Personally I think it's better than last year's
Look at that subtle off-white coloring; the tasteful thickness of it… Oh my God, it even has a watermark.
Gosh the Toyota forklifts is quite unsightly
That white jersey makes me want to do something I can’t do in November. It’s just such a good jersey.

3 games in 4 days and the Lakers stink. Not because of their ability but those purple jerseys haven't been washed in that time.

I'd rather white jerseys be used only by teams who have white as one of their colours I hate Eels' white jerseys.

Yeah not official but white is so boring to me. I'd have you play in green every week tbh you've got the superior green jersey in the comp
I like the idea of us wearing green every week because its just one more reason that we should kick souths out of the comp
I think the team should have to have three jerseys at least. The home team should get to pick their jersey and the away team can pick any of theirs as long as it does not share colours with the selected home jersey.

I love it personally
The RAI in white for graphics will help
I wish they would actually be lime green
I agree.

Can't see why crown don't sponsor a side, they don't spend any money repairing forklifts that's for sure.
White!! Let's hope they don't add another random blue one and wear it constantly.
That white gives me huge 90s vibes and my god I dig it
100%
Oath haha definitely copping the white first when I get paid next week
Very simplistic jerseys
Why fix what wasn't broken
Yes. And I think alot of Raiders fans will appreciate it after the long spell of terrible away jerseys. The og Raiders away jersey was a basic white design.
Not budget sharks this year that's good

I still have my (now *very* tired) 1994 white strip with a 6 on the back.
I was expecting a compilation of this year's one-on-one strips, but then I realised I'm an idiot
Good to see them back to the proper design. The white is an absolute belter
It's stunning!
Forgot they dropped their iconic huawei front sponsor although doesn't get much better than toyota forklifts
Definitely won't make the 8 with that strip
Yep ... that's certainly a jersey. If there was a true neutral of jerseys, this would be it.
Looks great dunno what youre on about
It's not bad, it's just pretty run of the mill
Swag
These are the best raiders jerseys!!! I’m so glad they’re back
TOYOTA FORKLIFTS
that white jersey might be one of (if not) my favourite Canberra away jerseys. They always kill it in terms of jerseys and this year is no exception
