I know the black away strip looks a pretty good match with our new great sponsors branding. BUT, i'd love to see our stats when wearing that Black Strip (do the players get a bit confused? ), we seem to struggle . PLEASE wear our hoops strip and WIN. Just an opinion

Yeah Egg, black has been scientifically proven to be a heavier colour than other colours thus slowing Jeff Robson down significantly.

I'd actually be interested to see how many games we've won in a black Sharks jersey. I don't believe the jersey has anything to do with losing games but the last game I can remember us winning with the black jersey was in 2008 against the Raiders.

I don't think it makes a difference to how we play..but it certainly isn't a good look...
Back to the hoops i reckon..

Yeah, I've given up on superstition. Especially since my Jeff Robson voodoo doll stopped working. Looks like it kicked back in last night though.

Black strip was worn in our winning games against the Bulldogs and the Raiders last year.

they thought they were penrith last night, wade looked quite at home ;)

narh in all seriousness the jersey makes no difference. we would have lost in the so called magic hoops jersey that some of you seem to think is the reason for us winning games.

1995 - Manchester United away kit
Without a shadow of a doubt, the most controversial football strip of all time. Popular amongst the fans, the 1995-96 away kit had already become one of the best selling of all time despite the teams poor results when wearing it. In April 1996, United trailed Southampton 3-0 at half-time. Alex Ferguson forced his players to change strips and blamed the grey tone for the teams performance, claiming the players were camouflaged on the pitch by blending into the fans in the background. United still lost the game 3-1 and the kit was subsequently withdrawn from production two years ahead of schedule. It's record: 1 Win, 1 Draw, 4 Defeats! Interestingly, this wasn't the first time United had changed kits at half-time. During an FA Cup tie in 1903, they were forced to change from their familiar red strip into their blue and white away kit. Whilst adverse weather conditions were to blame for that change - they also lost the game 3-1.
