As the Club prepares for the 22nd annual Anzac Day Cup clash with St George Illawarra, we continue a proud chapter of our history through our light blue - now known as Bondi Blue - Wartime jersey, one that represents wartime hardships, on-field success and signalled the end of the Second World War. With tensions high as ever at the peak of World War II as fear and doubt cast over the lives of Australians through the 1940s, Rugby League was continually at the heart of the wartime effort - and Eastern Suburbs were no different. Captain Ray Stehr retired in 1939 to enlist in the AIF, eventually making an emphatic return, the first-grade side competed in fundraising matches against representative army teams in July and September of 1942, while the number of Clubmen enrolling in the services while creating and supporting events to raise funds grew exponentially with each coming month. Even the iconic Bondi Beach was lined with double barbed wires to ward off potential invaders - a sign of the desperate measures set out to ensure the safety of Sydneysiders.

Frequently Asked Questions
A: Our Sydney Roosters 2024 Men's Wartime Anzac Round Jersey is a premium supporter-version replica (commonly known as "Thai Quality") designed for ultimate comfort, durability, and daily wear. While on-field player versions feature an extremely tight, body-hugging fit with rubberized grip panels, our Sydney Roosters 2024 Men's Wartime Anzac Round Jersey offers a comfortable, relaxed fit with highly detailed embroidered team crests and fully sublimated sponsor logos. It is the perfect choice for cheering in the stands or wearing to the pub in United Kingdom.
A: Rugby, AFL, and NBL jerseys are traditionally designed with a slightly roomier, more robust cut to allow for easy movement and layering. For our standard supporter-cut Sydney Roosters 2024 Men's Wartime Anzac Round Jersey, we recommend ordering your standard clothing size. However, if you prefer a modern, snugger "pro-player style" fit for match days in United Kingdom, you may consider ordering one size down. Please consult our precise [Size Guide] on this page before securing your kit.
A: To ensure maximum durability on and off the field, all core team crests (such as the Silver Fern, NRL club logos, or Wallabies badges) on your Sydney Roosters 2024 Men's Wartime Anzac Round Jersey are meticulously embroidered. Major sponsors and jersey patterns are applied using advanced sublimation printing, which fuses the ink directly into the fabric fibers. This guarantees that your kit won't crack, peel, or fade, even after intense matches or multiple washes in United Kingdom.
A: To keep your Sydney Roosters 2024 Men's Wartime Anzac Round Jersey in pristine condition for every game day, we highly recommend washing it inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, which can weaken the performance fabrics. Line drying is strongly recommended; do not tumble dry or iron directly over any vinyl detailing. This will keep your classic rugby or AFL kit looking sharp for years in United Kingdom.
