The heritage round for 2006 is themed the 1980's. Obviously we cannot have the Tetley Tigers logos but what difference can we make to our current jumper? Last year's jumper with the psuedo lace up was ordinary.

Don't tell me, Mole, Hummel will be designing and supplying a terrific range of Tiger heritage guernseys that absolutely every Tiger supporter should get out and buy.

Yes/No/Maybe? ;)
 
This heritage theme is getting boring, how many times can you do a different heritage jumper?

Just keep it the same as last year, it looked alot better than the one the year before!
 
Just received my "Any Name" Steelers guernsey from NFLShop.com. My son received his Titans one too.

Reckon for the next heritage round we should have a black NFL-style guernsey with yellow hoops on the upper arms. There should be a big Tiger-head emblem at the front, and a yellow Tigers positioned above. On the back should be the name of the individual player, in yellow on top, with the number, big & white, below.

The club could make a killing by selling off these jumpers, but allowing individual supporters and members to have their choice of placing their own surnames on the back of the guernseys and having the number of their choice.

My "Any name" Steeler guernsey has my surname "PAHOFF" on the back, with the number, you guessed it, "69". My son received his Titan guernsey with, of course, the same surname, but with the no.19
He says it's the best top that he's ever had and it gives him a real buzz wearing it.

I will wear mine at my next PRG/Tiger opportunity.

Phantom are you an advertising guru or have you been reading the Melbourne site. ;D I had a look at a few of the others site shops to see how their gear and range compared to ours. Melbourne have this option available on their site.

As much as I hate to admit it most other clubs left us for dead in the merchandising department. Also most had a full range of 2006 apparel available on line.

Some clubs even had a Xmas catalogue featuring all the new range. Collingwoods is especially good. :(

REALLY!! I'm stunned. I must look up the Melbourne site and have a squizz.  ;)

Well there you go!

Now I realize that I should have spent my life in the "shmutter" game. ;)

Totally agree.

This heritage round thing should be dumped.

It's only a gimmick for the AFL to attempt to boost crowds and for clubs to sell some extra jumpers.

It's crap crap crap.

Add to this every heritage round we get thumped.
 
Heritage round was a good one off but it is a dead horse that has been flogged well !!!!!!!! to death :hihi

All of this round rubbish is crap, family round, nanna round, pet round, geeeez just play footy.
 
I agree the heritage round is crap. That's why I was asking what RFC could do. Not much change from the 80's to now. And by the way phanto the heritage round has to be based on a past jumper I thought. Like your idea - maybe hummel should talk to you about design!

Actually I had a very close look at the Hummel gear that the RSA cricket team wear, it looks very good, but it looks nothing like the gear that the Tigers are advertising for 2006.
Why the difference in design?

Mole, if ever you want to call me regarding my ideas for design that might benefit Hummel/Concept Sports/The Tiges you can call me any time.
I dressed for a cocktail party on Thursday night in a open white embroided dinner shirt matched with my favourite cream linen suit. Everyone said that I looked stunning. Even my wife gave me the thumbs up, and that hasn't happened in 20 years.
 
Throw in the Dr.Who scarf, Phanto, and you'll be dressed to kill ... or just look like a Bay City Roller!
 
Ive been collecting heritage game jumpers since they started and must say its good to have something different in the pool room other then the black with yellow sash that we all love so much

As have I CC Tiger. The Heritage round is harmless but when you only have about 4 Heritage jumpers it quickly runs out of steam. If we had 20 odd different styles then it would be good.
