Help/advice needed: Gold shorts Empty Help/advice needed: Gold shorts

Post by jimbopip Sat May 18, 2013 10:33 pm


Morning all. I was celebrating son's 21st last night with most of the second XV and I have vague memories of the evening. However, some of the older players were saying that they have been searching for GOLD/YELLOW shorts which would allow Pudding our esteemed TH prop to plod onto the field in Veterans games. I know that there is a system of colour coding the shorts for elderly players but no-one seems able to find where to actually purchase these garments. If any posters can help I would be very grateful.
If this posting does not read with my usual clarity and sparkle I can only ask that you re-read the openeing sentence. Thanks

So, you're saying that, once you reach a certain age, you have to advertise it to all and sundry by wearing ridiculous clothing?

Just like real life then?

Is this to alert opponents that they should only tackle these players if a defib is readily available?

MrsP, it is much more complicated than wearing polyester flares and socks with sandals. Apparently there is a range of colurs denoting the level of physicality which you may inflict upon the wearer.
As for my friend Pudding, only tackle him if you have a fast car waiting was always my motto.

Joking aside.

Do Australia or SA ever wear yellow/gold shorts?

Or ASM?

Just trying to think of a team which might have yellow in there strip.

I did find these,

But I can imagine they may not be quite suitable?

With these he might be mistaken for the MFL's latest overseas big money signing.
But you later suggestions were very helpful, thanks.
