The PNG Chiefs will host two reveal events in Port Moresby later this year to showcase their official team branding. The club will unveil its logo on October 21, followed by the release of its inaugural NRL jersey on October 22. These announcements mark significant progress for the organization as it prepares for its debut in the NRL competition scheduled for 2028. The new jersey, which will go on sale to the public immediately following the October 22 event, was designed by a local artist to reflect cultural values. In addition to these branding updates, the club continues to build its roster through recruitment efforts, including authorized negotiations with Hudson Young. CEO Lorna McPherson stated that these reveal events are intended to establish a recognizable identity for the club as it prepares to enter the league.
