A new style jersey for the mighty Blues has now been unveiled, predominantly Navy blue with Sky blue vees on the front; Freddie endorses it but I can't say that I'm a fan, as I can't see why we'd go away from our traditional Sky blue as the predominant jersey colour. Maybe, if it was Sky blue with Navy blue vees, I'd be happier.
I think we change our colours at our peril; tradition and history should mean something without change for the sake of change or pandering to new markets, as the article I read in the SMH, mentioned it was to try to attract new supporters in Perth 2019 and it also mentioned Adelaide in 2020.
Personally, being a Mighty Seaeagles supporter, who doesn't give a rat's whether we're hated by others, I don't care if every other state in Australia hates our Blues, I love them, and I know the boys will continue to play their guts out for the jersey and do the state proud as they've always done; so, they can hate us and barrack for the cane toads all they want, just bring back the traditional jersey.
What do the Silvertails think?
