Official Kooga Melbourne Rebels home rugby shirt from the 2012 season. Complete with Super Rugby patch printed on the sleeve.
Although this jersey is essentially the same design template as the shirt worn by the Rebels in the previous 2011 season, this updated version featured sponsors on the collar (the 2011 version was plain).
Condition of this original rugby jersey is 9/10 – Superb (see photos).
In 2006 the Australian Rugby Union, following the suggestions of a working party, announced the formation of a national domestic competition. The Melbourne Rebels were established for the inaugural season of the Australian Rugby Championship by virtue of NSW surrendering a fourth team in favour of Victoria. Coached by Bill Millard and captained by David Croft, the Rebels finished fourth (out of 8) and were runners up. The move was viewed as an interim step to a Super 14 franchise.
The VRU bid twice for a team in SANZAR's 'Super' provincial competition before being accepted for the 2011 season. Their winning bid was named after the team they fielded in the ARC.
