Now that I've seen the whole "Fire" kit.. Not looking good.
The "Ice" one looks great.
Heritage would look better without the texture, and that U20's one looks like the Terminator.

Well luckily the "Fire and Ice" designs are only training kits, so will never be seen in games.

Agree with the heritage without the texture, the original (which was similar but not the exact same design) never had it so it is just an unneeded add on.

The Terminator look is apparently exactly what they were going for.

But the Warriors seem to be into the whole taking things to new limits, so I guess they have succeeded.

Ouch, the fire uniform is too loud for my eyes.

The ice one doesn't look too bad at all tbh.

I'm not sure how I feel about the U20 design. It's certainly interesting.

I thought the Warriors were going to wear a different version of the new NRL logo?

Are there any real life images of the terminator design being worn craegus?

Here is the best image I have seen of it, also the Women in League jersey in the middle:

They will wear a monochrome version as of 2014. The release of the new logo came too late to be incorporated for the 2013 season.

Absolutely ridiculous.

Stunningly ridiculous really.

Release a logo >18 months before it goes into use.

Staggering.

The release of the logo came too late for it to be implemented, that's the issue. I've heard of several instances in North American sports where teams want to change their uni, but have to wait the year after next because they didn't announce it before a cutoff date. Denver Broncos going back to orange is one example, the New York Mets going back to blue (alternates) is another.

Well the new Premiership logo will be used this coming year for sponsorships/media/on field just not on the jerseys.

Remember the amount of time it takes to produce jerseys for both clubs and the public, that is why the jerseys will have the NRL logo not the Premiership one. The NRL one was ready well before the rest of the logos. The U20's one can be on the jerseys as they are not sold to the public, and the Warriors won't use a different one this year as they will be introducing the monochrome version at the same time.

I agree with all this, I just feel they should have significantly delayed the release of the logo set.

for example who would buy a jersey with the old logo on it when you know it's changing for next season?

Penrith tried the paint-spill style for their away jersey a few years ago, also to much chagrin.
