    Jersey Swapping?

    I haven't seen any, and maybe it happens later....but what happened to that great practice in our game of swapping of jerseys after the game?

    I wold imagine the "minnows" would love to have a souvenir of RWC11 of a tier 1 opponents jersey?

    I was actually wondering the same thing today. Do players even get to keep their jerseys nowadays?

    Jerseys nowadays end up at auctions and all sorts of things so I think they're actually directed to hold on to them after they play.

    Word from Richard Graham is that jersey swapping is still alive and well - usually in change rooms post match ...

    Hey TIF cant believe a EWF supporter would stoop so low as admitting they support That team that wears black and white and called crappies and come from over in victoria and plays the gay game with corrupt officals

    Can understand you would support Manly but again you might be am not confident but hoping you be crying again to night


    Go the Warriors

    Its a cunning plan by TIF to disguise that he can't back up and have a drink today.

    They can't swap, they are too tight to get off in public...

    Jesus, TIF! Lucky you have been a loyal Force supporter. Just imagine if you'd continued supporting the Tahs. Trifecta for the three most loathed teams in Australian sport.

    As far as I have been told,..by John Mitchell......the ABs don't anyway....they look on their jersey as something to look after until they don't play anymore...
