You are right on the 96 jersey with the Blue Pepsi sponsor logo on it. This jersey was worn early in the 96 season. My memory (or nightmare) of the 95 grand final was that we wore the reverse jersey that day with the white at the top and maroon at the bottom. I still can't get over Eddie Ward's incompetence on that day that robbed us of any chance we had to beat those cheating dogs (not Berries - that changed 15 years before.)brookiegreg link said:Love this jersey and still have one from 1995 in going condition.
However I believe that they've got one fact slightly wrong and that this new jersey is the 1995-6 one 9worn in the 1995 GF loss against the berries) and not the jersey that the team wore in the 1996 grand final. The 1996 GF shirt featured the largeish blue world/oval Pepsi logo and not the red horizontal stripe pepsi logo which is being made now.
At the time I seem to remember the blue oval pepsi shirt coming out only weeks or days before the 1996 GF...but maybe memory is playing tricks??
Any thoughts - but regardless I love the new reto shirt! (yes the old one was cotton and so should the newie be too just like the fab 73 shirt)

 I toyed with that. But in the end the 1990s were all about Tooves remonstrating with the referees from dummy half and I decided we needed him at 9 because that was important to our success.ÂManlyBacker link said:I would swap Tooves and Des as well. At their best this line-up is easily in front of the current squad.
 I really hope you're joking Dan. Kosef would probably have gone down as the greatest backrower in our history if not for injury. He was the complete player. Size, speed, toughness and breathtaking ball skills (that Beaver didn't have).ÂDan link said:Do you think Choc would get a spot, I mean Kosef's knee was already dicky in 96
