[QUOTE="Gay-Guy, post: 120842"] If they scrapped the tri-nations then this could replace it....a 3 game series like the Aussie SOO. However it would be marketed better if the jerseys were NOT black for the north and white for the south like they used to have. Instead the Northern jersey would be predominatly blue (because Auckland is the biggest city) with yellow as the main seconday colour (cos Welly is the second biggest city) with skimpy splashes of maroon, black, and a light blue (the other famous unions of the north). The Southern jersey could be predominatly red (cos Christchurch is the biggest city) with its secondary being blue (Otago) with small splashes of the main minor unions. Both jerseys could be done stylishly to attract better exposure for the series...its all in the marketing. Both Islands could be given an iconic name rather than the boring North and South. As well as a logo that fitted the name. Maybe each team could have a unique haka to perform haha :) Perhaps to make it more closer to home for each player.....the players have to play for the Island they grew up in...the one they identify themselves with....rather than the Franchise they currently play for. Ok who is gonna start designing a jersey?????? [/QUOTE]
