This is the new Wallabies home kit 2013, the new uniform for the Australian rugby union side. Semifinalists at the 2011 World Cup, the Wallabies will be tackling the British and Irish Lions this summer and Kooga released this new strip on April 4, 2013 well in in time for the Lions visit. The likes of Reds scrumhalf Will Genia and Waratahs utility back Berrick Barnes are here seen modelling the new Wallabies home shirt in the pics below

As a jersey on its own I think it’s ok.
As a Wallaby jersey though, I think it’s lame. It’s very similar to the old CCC bra-strap and asymmetric collar jersey worn at the 2007 world cup with the piping removed, so to me it shows a lack of originality; especially when most of the Kooga training shirts have a similar design.
While I do like the fact that part of the green collar can be seen from the back, I would like something either a bit more classic or retro, in order to be distinctive in a Lions’ year. I like the jersey on its own, but for me this looks like a training kit or a professional club jersey.
wtf happened to genia’s hair?
interesting that none of quade, joc or kurtley are modelling.
“wtf happened to genia’s hair?” Erm… he’s let it grow.
Not the best of kits but nowhere near the worst I prefer this to their previous one.
Doesn’t look too bad, there is room for improvement however I like it!
