IALT: Write about the All Blacks revealing their new $150 jersey!

The All Blacks have revealed a new jersey they will be wearing in their first test match against the British and Irish Lions. The number one team in the world will play the first test against the Lions on the 24th of June, but will likely wear it against Samoa a week earlier in Auckland. All Blacks Sam Cane, Anton Lienert Brown and Sam Whitelock revealed the new jersey this morning alongside captain Kieran Read at the adidas store in NewMarket. 

The Lions landed in Auckland today, the 2nd time here in New Zealand. The main difference to pervious strips is a new crest with the features the years 1904 and 2017. The jersey is already on sale for $149.99 at Rebel Sport. Meanwhile, Adidas has announced extending it's commitment with New Zealand Rugby until 2023. 

New Zealand Rugby CEO Steve Tew said they'd enjoyed "an exceptional and prosperous relationship" with adidas since the first deal was signed in 1999. He has also said that Adidas is not just a sponsor but a real partner in our game.

To me I think that the All Blacks deserve to be sponsored by Adidas longer because they represent our country, with pride and joy. Revealing a new jersey to the public is just one of their 'tricks' I like to watch the All Blacks because their game plan is just extraordinary, their trainings should help players give 100%. I hope that they win against the Lions and continue to thrive for success.
