A 2006 Cats jersey, from the South African Super Rugby franchise that was later rebranded as the Lions. Featuring the Cats’ distinctive red, white and blue colour scheme, franchise crest and early-2000s Super 14 styling, it represents a short-lived chapter in South African provincial rugby. It is associated with the Cats during the 2006 Super 14 season, the final year the franchise competed under the Cats name before becoming the Lions in 2007. The Cats were based in Johannesburg and Welkom and represented the Golden Lions and Free State Cheetahs regions, making jerseys from this brief era particularly interesting to collectors.
