I don't know why, but it looks to me like an Australian shirt. Not Australia's national shirt, but something that an NRL side would wear.

Surely we won't be allowed to play in that when away at Cas? It's far too similar to my eyes.

Warriors Unveil 2012 Away Kit

Wigan Warriors have today officially unveiled their new alternate kit to be worn at games away from the DW Stadium during the 2012 season.

The new design sees a contemporary alternative to the traditional home strip released recently. The kit is predominantly black with the shirt featuring gold sleeves and shoulders with white stripes around the midriff. The shirt is also accompanied by back shorts and socks both with a gold trim.

The shirt is produced by Australian kit manufactures ISC and will be the first time in which gold has been incorporated as a predominant colour of an away strip and will again display the logo of Main Club Sponsor Applicado-FS across the chest. New partners JK Guest Group will be on the reverse of the shirt, Magners Irish Cider will have their logo located on the right shoulder with Maximuscle appearing on the reverse of shorts.

Commenting, Wigan Warriors captain Sean O'Loughlin said:

"I have always enjoyed playing in our black away kits in previous seasons and I'm sure next year will be no different. The gold on the shirt is a break from the norm but it looks really classy and I'm sure the kit will be really popular with the fans"

The new shirt is now available to pre-order exclusively via the official online store by [clicking here] and will be available from Warriors World in the Grand Arcade before the end of November.

Adult home shirts are priced at £47, Juniors £35, Toddlers at £30.

Well I'll be getting both shirts this year.The home strip is the best for years and the away is just as good,just different to what we're used to.

I don't see the big issue, we wore our home shirt at Cas the last 2 years, at least.

It's more of an alternatre shirt the away one these days, if the colours of your home strips clash and you are the away side then you are obliged to change.
