Exeter Chiefs = Thats just wrong

I've always liked the hoops for Argentina. That top is a bit plain.

Chiefs.... helloooo young braves ! That may be an eye catching design, but in a very wrong way. Bit OTT, like their fans when they won at Kingsholm. I'll see if I can find a Glaws shirt.

Not keen on being beaten at home by upstarts, gregortree?!

Looks like Glos designers are dabbling in spot of pink too.

As Long As,
yes, you are right, about that man.
And anyway what is it with all this Native American whooping stuff.
I thought the Brethren sailed from Plymouth.
What is the Exeter connection ?

Thats a poor effort, why don't clubs stick to their main colours anymore?

I liked Bath's euro shirt last term as it was just re-using a previous design, which is a nice idea. Just a shame we didn't stay in HC longer so everyone could look at it.

In the old amateur days of Exeter Rugby Club, the first team was always termed the Chiefs, as is fairly common in Devon and Cornwall (and is still in use at many clubs). With all the mileage that can be made out of the native american angle, it was an easy leap to call the pro team the Chiefs

That seems just to be for the 'Change' strip? I quite like the look of your European one tho

The O's one isn't out yet, I believe that this is a glimpse of the new Ulster one though, although I'm not bothered about the shirt here :

Spoiler:

Hersh, ok, I'm sure you'll look great in that pink design.

It's not very original, Pink is so last season.

Glaws pink WAS last season - Europe version, hence we never saw it much. And the shop has no shame in still discounting the shirts like someone would want one. I guess Exeter is a one season time zone behind Glos on fashion matters.

Nice one, GT

Thats odd as Glawstershire is 10 years behind on everything else.

Zut Alors, seems everyone is copying Stade Francais these days.

Like the French Kit, very retro. Wonder if they'll wear White shorts and Red socks.

The Tigers strip make me want to puke watching them move around in that is going to do funny things to my guts. As for their away strip ..... are they invading Finland or something?

Hersh
as a Londoner originally, I find I have to agree with you on that.
And Exeter a year behind Glaws.

Exeter is still celebrating New Labours election victory.

crack me up Hersh

Dissapointed with the Argentinian one...they should have kept the stripes.

Ours is absolutely rubbish....

Was that too harsh?

Blue shorts, red socks i believe

Yes, you hurt my feelings....

Was a massive fan of Argentina's old kit. Not liking the new one at all- way too boring for them. Why change??!

The real story (the one they won't publicise) is that Sandy Park was built on the site of a native American burial ground and to appease the angry spirits they named the club 'Chiefs'. Big Chief himself is the physical manifestation of a dead Apache's ghost and not as some believe some bloke in a massive foam head. FACT.

I could keep the secret no longer As!

Regarding teams playing in pink, you think the suits pick that colous because they think they'll play harder due to them thinking that they've been emasculated to some degree?

Reminds me of the Johnny Cash song A Boy Named Sue-where the dad names the son Sue in order to harden him up because he'll get no end of stick in life.

Apparently the Embra shirt will be unveiled in a couple of weeks....

it falls under the rule of 'I can wear this effeminate colour cos i am considerably harder than you'

George Bush may have said something like
" I am wearing pink, but don't misunderestimate me", which is maybe the English philosophy

In the case of French clubs it is a bit different (I'll translate):
" we are sophisticated Europeans, secure in our masculinity, so we can pull off this 'color' "

Sale Sharks new shirt out.

I quite like it.
Good news is that it looks as if Canterbury have finally gotten rid of that stupid bib in their designs... well if i was an England fan i would hope so...

I like that Sale sharks shirt, think it's pretty cool. Still apprehensive about their England design....

7.5 out of 10

Coming Soon!

better than your usual articles

and you kept yours clean!

Well done

The Persil Automatic England Kit? Nice!!
Self cleaning oxygenated fabric that does away with the need for halftime laundry chores.

I wasted 35 seconds of my life clicking on this article that I can't get back. Thanks HERSH.

Can the mods remove this waste of Internet web space please?

Let the discussion grow. (why does a Scot care anyway?)

Has anyone heard of when it's going to be released etc...

Nike would have had a sneak preview or the kit design out by now.

Did some of you have a sense of humour bypass at the weekend?

I do have a sense of humour.

However the bulk of your "articles" seem to pass me by in terms of being funny.

Thats because you're a Scot.

I would say Jock but I don't think thats PC anymore?

Gav's new colours

You can call me a Jock if you really want, doesn't bother me at all.

Back to your pointless "article", I suppose I could create a Poll to see how many people find your articles either :

A) Funny
B) Sad
C) Pointless
D) A waste of web space
E) Mostly WUMs
F) All of the above

What upsets me most is you seem to have a pretty decent rugby brain and knowlege. I just wish you'd put it to better use than trying to wind up others or wasting my time with the Article you posted up about the new England kit. Believe it or not I do find new kit threads interesting so to have you post it up and say coming soon was a bit childish.
