Right across the front is the sponsors name. Cadbury . Chocolate. Melts in the heat. What were they Thinking? [bighmmm]:Rolling:

Shame really, cos it's a pretty good looking rugby top.
But that Cadbury logo, in the purple/blue colour, just looks a bit.... [emoji1785]

I think the Wallabies have far more to worry about than their gersey. I guess at least they have a sponsor...

I remember in early 2000,s they have a big red and white VODAPHONE on the front, couldn’t even get vodaphone coverage in the NT in those days and when they did it lost signal 20ks from the CBD.

Current one doesnt look that bad to me.

They should never have changed from this one, IMO.

Could've been worse and could've been for a specific cadbury product - Creme Egg or Crunchie... Crunchie has a good rugby sound to it. Given Bob's liking of the old jersey - Cadbury Old Gold sounds good [biggrin]

They are the Australian side who actually play in an international competition.

The history of the Wallaby jersey is complex.

1899 - 1904, sky blue in Sydney, Maroon in Brisbane , 1905 - 1907, sky blue and maroon hoops, 1908 - 1928, sky blue except for Brisbane tests, 1929 - 1961, dark green except against South Africa, 1962 - 1976 gold, 1978 to now, gold with green. The South African jersey was chosen by accident. But has been green for 110 years. This article was written in 2016, from the ROAR;
