The 2013 season
Matthew Elliott's first season at the club. The first-grade side was coached by Matthew Elliott. Wahpedia catalogues 8 distinct 2013 Warriors designs in total, 4 of them first-grade match jerseys, all listed on the 2013 season page.
Maker and sponsor
Canterbury made the Warriors' on-field jerseys from 2009 to 2021, so this design belongs to the Canterbury era of the club's kit. The front-of-jersey sponsor in 2013 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 2013 training jersey, compare the neck and hem labels with the maker for that season (Canterbury), make sure the sponsor set matches 2013 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 ozbargain.com.au.
