Mick Simmons has it, Mr. Sharkie.

I got it from there a few years ago and still wear it to games although I prefer to wear the 1978 retro jersey I have.

I just visited his website and he doesnt have it. I have the 1978 jersey aswell but I love to have the 1967 jersey.

Would you think the club will know where to purchase it from?

Hey mr.sharkiee, you can try calling or emailing the manufacturer, Classic Sportswear:

This from the Frequently Asked Questions page of their website:

Where can I purchase a Classic Jersey?
As Classic is only a manufacturer and wholesaler company, we do not sell directly to the public. Contact one of our retail team on (02)9550 2711 to find your nearest store.

What Retro Jerseys are available?
The selection is always changing so please check our NRL Retro merchandise page for updates.

What if the style of the Retro Jersey I want is not available?
Email your request to us and let us know what city and state you are from. We keep this information to help us decide on our next production. For any urgent requests, please call our friendly Retail Staff at Classic Sportswear.

Just a friendly word of advice about the 1967 jersey you are after however...I own one myself and I must point out that the sleeves are waaayyyyy too long for the average human being and better suited to primates such as gibbons or orangutangs...ie. alterations are defintely in order unless you prefer to wear the sleeves rolled up! ;)

I tried both those sites they didnt have it.
I rang the Sharks they said they have it in a small.
Me being 18 and growing , I'm a bit unsure if it will be suitable to wear when I'm older and bigger.

THANKS Megashark aswell I shall look into it!

AND SharkyPete! thank you

1980's Trial Jersey

Dane Sorensen, pictured after a pre-season trial, icing a knee injury that midway through the season forced him to stop playing. He was even told he might never play again because of the injury, but demonstrating his renowned toughness, he played in the Winfield Cup for another three years.

I think the jersey would look even better than it already does (and yes, I think it's nice) if they used the blue we have now instead of the darker '05 version of blue.

My recollection of the jersey is that it was a lighter blue than that pic, thats why i always liked it.. The colours in that pic all look a little "warm" ?

Mate, the jersey your after was used in a trial match in 1988 against Newcastle. There is actually a pic of Michael SPEECHLEY in it on this website under images. I saw one for sale at Goodfellows, Princes Highway Tempe
