The 2007 season
The Warriors returned to the finals for the first time since 2003. The first-grade side was coached by Ivan Cleary. Wahpedia catalogues 3 distinct 2007 Warriors designs in total, 3 of them first-grade match jerseys, all listed on the 2007 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 2007 was Vodafone, the club's principal partner of the period.
Collector's notes
As the season's primary strip it was produced in the largest numbers, so it is the easiest 2007 jersey to find and the usual starting point for a season-by-season collection. To check a 2007 home jersey, compare the neck and hem labels with the maker for that season (Puma), make sure the sponsor set matches 2007 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.
