Manly Warringah Sea Eagles have today released a Heritage jersey inspired by the very first jersey worn by the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles.

The team will wear the 2025 Heritage jersey against the South Sydney Rabbitohs at 4 Pines Park on Sunday 6th July to celebrate Golden Eagles Round (Old Boys’ Day).

The jersey reflects the rich history of the Club, paying homage to the first players to represent Manly Warringah Sea Eagles in 1947.
