I'd be happy with that if I was Saints supporter, about time they had their turn with a 'bigger' company after having Sekem/Piping Hot/Skins/ISC/BLK (for 1 week lol)/XBlades on their jumpers for the past 20 years

Correct - the jumpers were made by Sekem and god knows who else made the rest of the gear. Piping Hot were just the sponsor in that manufacturer spot, no different to Concept Sports for Richmond. Or Dare this season really.
Anyway the story was that ISC jumped in to help out Saints and GC last year because they had nobody to make their gear. ISC gave them some contra but no cash sponsorship - once Coronavirus hit and it became clear that there would be little retail market for footy merch with no crowds etc ISC went to the Saints and said they would happily use all the same designs next year etc so that they wouldn’t be left with a heap of obsolete stock - the Saints then told them they’d signed with someone else for 2021 and beyond. Then the Saints wanted a discount on a huge invoice on all their stock (close to half a mil) because they couldn’t sell anything, like it was ISC’s fault. Anyway I’m looking forward to what NB does - the training gear for the Dees is just cut and sew stuff, pretty boring but maybe they’ll move to sublimated gear in the future.

Whoever makes the Saints jumpers, they will automatically be seen as heroes through my eyes if they return the black pinstriping to the cuffs. A la, the mid to late 2000s jumpers.

Getting in early on the logoCrows with Oneils
Worth noting O'Neills will likely use their other logo on their guernseys, like seen on their NRL jerseys, where the apostrophe is replaced with '1918'

Going by the brumbies apparel, the majority of gear will use the 1918 logo (as featured on the panthers kit above). The only gear that has the original logo (which I could find) was a cap.Worth noting O'Neills will likely use their other logo on their guernseys, like seen on their NRL jerseys, where the apostrophe is replaced with '1918'

I was really hoping Kappa or Umbro would pick a club or two up. Just imagine the retro collections they'd drop

Considering isc is publicly known to pulling out of most contracts it is not very surprising. For all we know blk or sekem will become the supplier. I personally liked the majority of isc's work with essendon (and there work with other sides looked quite nice also).
