It's a good idea to start with AFL, I've heard a lot of doctors that treated pro AFL teams have gone overseas and treated EPL clubs and such. There was an Australian doctor that treated Fulham players. I think he's back treating Collingwood players now...

Unusual. This must be for the away strip if this is indeed the official lettering and numbering If not, Adidas is going oldschool again.
I agree it's a little disappointing to choose Iceland. Just a run out for the reserves though. Iceland aren't that good as it is, and most of their team isn't playing in Iceland so they'll probably be sending the reserves of a team that isn't that good to start with.
I don't think they will be sending a reserve team. But I do think they are perhaps not the best choice for opponent. My country will face them in the next qualifications
The game is on 24th Feb. Not a FIFA friendly matchday, so the clubs can (and probably will) refuse to release their players for the match. Same reason why Japan can't call up their best players for the 24th, however they can for the 29th Feb when clubs are required to release players.
It was hard to make a uniform worst than the one with the red bib, but Adidas managed. Congratulations!! This one, besides the very boring hue of blue, looks like it has a rivulet of blood or one of those 80es necktie on it. Ok, I gotta go, I need to vomit, sorry...
Terrible, just terrible. I'm glad I bought the previous one, at least the red square is less "terrible" than the red stripe
I think it'll look a tiny bit better with the number on the front.... at least we don't have to wear this in Brazil
Really is terrible. I mean, Royal Blue shoulders and arms, Black front, with a red strip going right down the middle, stupid design. Who the hell thought of this? btw, isn't it 2 years? 2012-2014, then?
You're being too harsh Goru, the now previous one was quite nice with a deep blue, the traditional small piece of red and the feathers render was nice. This thing is just black, really cheap looking (it looks very plastic) and the thin red line doesn't inspire anything.
