Oz posters, time to show the colours.

In this case the orange gold colour of the Wallaby jersey circa 1986 when we had decent jerseys.

This colour.

If we ask ASMO nicely he might do it.

You're supposed to vet peoples applications before ASMO will act on them.

The adidas 3 stripe was the peak Wallaby jersey. :ugeek:

However the #FF8000 is straight-up internet orange. It should be "Australian Gold, my friend, and don't you fucken forget it" (© The Twelfth Man circa 1988).

Swatch against white, light and dark backgrounds:

I reckon somwhere around #ED9B1E is a better bet. This colour.

or maybe a bit darker when smaller ...

Kuntron (#D68811)

Thoughts?

Using a colour picker on photos will vary a lot depending on the spot u pick ... so it's always more art than science.

Colours like gold, yellow, silver, etc, are the trickiest to use for text. The margin for readability is narrow.

I suggest you start "The Precious" ASAP.

BTW, Engerland had purple away jerseys at one point, so it's sort of built in.

The colour signifies the wattle flower, Australia’s national emblem. A common acacia known locally as the golden wattle, it’s a ratty looking yellow weed...

Black then, bold for strength with gold and silver highlights to mark the first team to win the Webb Ellis three times and utter domination of the Bledisloe.

Yeah nah just plain black and yellow / gold. That colour scheme would cheer up the likes Ted and RuggaBugga and heaven knows they need it.

Thanks for sharing mate. In turn, I suggest you invest heavily in some pink satin ruffles for your fucking boudoir.
