New Zealand franchises release mighty fine 2016 Super Rugby jerseys

In a funny way, two of the jerseys will look better once the 2016 sponsors have been finalised.

The Super Rugby season does not begin until late February but, sensibly, the franchises have decided to get their new kit out in advance of Christmas. We have already featured the controversial, new Brumbies jersey and the shocking pink Stormers away kit. Today, we have been treated to a sneak peak of the five home jerseys of the Kiwi sides. Our favourite is the navy and light blue Auckland Blues offering. The Hurricanes jersey needs to be offset by a sponsor while the less said about the Chiefs' number, the better. https://twitter.com/eatsleeprugby/status/673059313418678272 The jerseys will set you back €93 (£67) or NZ $150. Or, give Santa a shout.
