CRONULLA-SUTHERLAND SHARKS 1998 NRL RETRO JERSEY
The 1998 season marks the 32nd year in the history of the Cronulla Sharks, as the club entered the inaugural season of the newly formed National Rugby League (NRL). This season was significant as it represented the reunification of the competition after the Australian Rugby League and Super League had previously competed separately. However, the Sharks faced challenges of a fresh start in this newly consolidated league, with the Sharks placing eleventh after twelve wins, one draw and eleven losses, ultimately failing to make the finals. The 1998 Cronulla Sharks jersey holds a special place in the club’s history, characterised by its striking design. The jersey predominantly features the club’s signature deep blue in a distinctive V pattern, symbolising the club’s strength and unity. Accentuating the blue is grey and white stripes that add a modern touch to a classic look alongside the iconic Pepsi sponsorship emblazoned across the chest, becoming a recognisable element of the club’s history. Despite the ups and downs of the season, the 1998 jersey remains a celebrated piece of the Sharks’ heritage, embodying the spirit of a club navigating the complexities of a new era in rugby league.
