The 2004 season
A difficult season that ended with a coaching change mid-year. The first-grade side was coached by Daniel Anderson, then Tony Kemp. Wahpedia catalogues 4 distinct 2004 Warriors designs in total, 3 of them first-grade match jerseys, all listed on the 2004 season page.
Maker and sponsor
Puma made the Warriors' on-field jerseys from 2000 to 2008, so this design belongs to the Puma era of the club's kit. The front-of-jersey sponsor in 2004 was Vodafone.
Collector's notes
Training gear was made in small quantities and rarely documented, so exact designs are best confirmed against dated photos from the season. To check a 2004 training jersey, compare the neck and hem labels with the maker for that season (Puma), make sure the sponsor set matches 2004 rather than a neighbouring year, and compare stitching, collar and sponsor placement against the photo above. Replicas are usually a looser cut in a lighter fabric than player-issue jerseys, which also carry a number and, in most eras, a tighter athletic fit. Data confidence for this entry is medium and the primary source is nzwarriors.com.
