Then again it doesn't make a lot of sense for Canberra Milk to sponsor us either. I doubt many people are changing their milk preference based on a sponsorship. Majority of people who buy Canberra Milk would because it's a local brand.

That is why it is not a long term sponsorship. Canberra Milk is a product that can't be bought by many people who see the brand on TV. They will get lots of free publicity and goodwill out of this year.

In many ways that is why it is loved. It is a unique Canberra brand and a very inoffensive product. (Maybe vegans feel differently) Personally I can't taste the difference between Canberra Milk and the homebrand Woolworths milk we normally buy. It is also not really a product that you buy more or less of as your circumstances change.

Clearly it has resulted in increased merchandise sales. Will be interested to see if it results in increased Canberra Milk sales.
You certainly can't buy the Raiders Lime Milk in southern ACT from what I've seen. I haven't been able to get hold of any to try it out.

I can definitely taste the difference between Canberra Milk and the cheap stuff as it usually has a higher fat (i.e., cream) content. Happy to fork out extra seeing as I enjoy drinking milk. Their extra cream milk is excellent.

Back on topic, now that I've seen the CM jersey being worn, I certainly want one.
Some people talk about the weather. Others do something about it.

Hmm k so these training tees right - how good quality are they? Was thinking of getting one for my boxing classes where I obviously sweat a lot, so need to be reasonably good material.

Pop a Raiders badge on a NSW Blues training top and no one will know the difference.

My heart wants that hoodie. My bank balance does not.

Some of these prices are just ridiculous. I first saw those budgie smugglers and thought I had to have a pair but I think they were about $50.

$150 for a jersey. They're kidding right?

Agree.

I could go buy a plain green hoodie and badge it myself.

I have plenty of Raiders retro sew on badges ready to go.

How good was this news after making the 2019 Grand Final!

Seemed like we were on the verge of something special. It was almost impossible to get one of these jerseys prior to Christmas.

The Milk jersey will most likely be the last jersey I buy for a while. It’s perfection
