Are these away kits for next season?

Certainly are, added 2 more following observations from fans.

Can't vote not on Twitter but shirt 3 of those. A purple with a darker pin stripe might be worth a look.

I like the hoops.

I'd go number 3 also, the other 2 are awful, but obviously not representative on here as number 1 is currently way out in front with 58%, no 3 with 27% and number 2 with 15% (from total of 226 votes)

You've got no idea Uncle G, which is a surprise as you're usually considered good with colours.

Paint by numbers?

Could have gone with Wexford GAA....

What do you make of Davy's ban?

I think they had no choice, but to make an example of him. It was all handbags, but you can't have the manager coming on the pitch and barging into players like that.

Davy Fitz is one of those guys you love if he's your manager because of the passion, but hate if he's managing another county. He's certainly a character and no mistake....and he has awoken Wexford hurling like no other in a LONG time.

Thought he got off lightly actually, especially seeing as the Armagh football manager looks to be getting a 12 week ban for a sideline incident. Hopefully he can get the team ready for the Kilkenny match regardless.

I suspect that is because his incident was with a match official.

Kilkenny, although still very good, are not the force to be feared that they once were (and in fairness Wexford have been beating them at under 21 level for a few years now...it's about time it translated into the same for the senior panel).

A photo has been uploaded to the Alty Facebook group of a prototype, which should be viewable by anyone (including those without Facebook accounts) here:-

Several Facebook posters seem confused by this, thinking that this is the new home shirt.

Agreed. I certainly won't be buying one of those.

I have to admit I preferred how it looked on the mock-up when we had the choice of 3 - doesn't seem so great in the flesh.

Definitely worth running the other 2 prototypes if possible, to see what they look like.
