That picture of JJB is a leaked photo isn't it?

So when Leeds do their proper reveal he might not be the one you're seeing predominately. So far I've seen Sinfield, Briscoe, Bailey, McGuire and JJB in shots for the home shirt.

Good point there Printer. Hopefully so.

The photoshoot with Sinfield and Briscoe looks to be from a different time (whiter background) than the shots of JJB and McGuire. So I imagine at the time they only had the authentic player shirts for that first photoshoot. By the time all the extra gear, replicas, cotton versions, training gear arrived it could've been World Cup time thus really ruling out several players plus some of our Aussies heading home during pre-season. JJB might not be a looker but he might've been the most recognisable that was actually available and was happy to give up his free time to do it.

I have been told by my female family members that Briscoe should be the only model that the club considers using for modelling purposes cos........... "He's well fit"

obviously never seen G1 in a one piece lycra suit size small then

Thankfully not Tad

Good grief.

I'll look forward to them, but wont open them until the girls are in bed

And the "market" in this instance is Leeds Rhinos fans, among whom JJB is highly regarded. Someone who has no idea about the sport isn't going to be influenced to buy a shirt on the basis of whether the person modelling it is good looking or not.

Most of these shirts will be sold to younger supporters - will the fact that JJB is a highly regarded senior player help to sell more shirts? Or will you sell more shirts if the model is younger, visually more appealing and a more trendy image?

If you put One Direction in the shirts to model they would sell more

only on rlfans

Probably only to our female fans whilst the male fans would try and shy away from them in fear of being classed as jessies.
As for Briscoe modelling the shirts. Is it me or does he look a tad gay in those recent poses!?
