Terrible kits

I was surprised that the Bulls wore their alternative strip (dark blue) when they played the Chiefs in black. This rule that there is a home and away jersey is stupid. Common sense should prevail when there is a colour clash.

Although if the players were considerate enough to play the match with their fronts facing the camera at all time, then less of an issue:

Bulls CEO: we look a bit too much like the Waratahs.

Lets try this:

Blues CEO: ahhhh guys?

well what about this:

Force CEO: ahhhh guys?

Bulls CEO, but I thought this was your kit:

Nah, we changed it - it looked to much like this:

[Rapido]

Brumbies, oh, are we all changing out kits?
Let me try:

Highlanders: Oh for heavens sake.

Didn't you guys look like this?

Whatever happened to the home team playing in their alternate jersey if there was a clash?

you can't get lower than this abortion

@mariner4life BOP could only afford 2 colours in their jersey!

Back in the day Mr Waikato Rugby went to Mr Canterbury jersey maker and said 'Mate we've got fuck all money to spend. What can you throw together from the offcuts?'.
Then they decided it wasn't quite right so peeled a label off their bottles of river water and stuck it on the front. Job done.

@mariner4life you are forgetting this fave of @Nepia

[Nepia]

@taniwharugby We really need an unlike button!

Never going to get a "clash" with that.
A great example of function over form/fashion.

Wigan v Widnes.

Then:

Now:

Awful, and an affront to heritage. But at least neither of those combos clash.

@Rapido the purple one is good as the defender blends with the corner flag.

They just want to look like the Melbourne Storm

Pink leopard print from Stade Francais must be up there

Here's a quizz.

Name the 19 team matchups playing in these photos, all from Super Rugby.

[Kiwiwomble]

started actually naming...

the list could be much bigger, no highlanders in there

blue is far too commonly used

[Rapido]

Genuine quiz, don't chicken out.

This is a two blues v yellow and black/dark blue quiz. So, probably no Highlanders, but don't wanna give it away (although one single blue may have snuck in there)

[Higgins]

I’ll make a start but without the ability to enlarge the shots I am probably hopelessly wrong

1. Waratahs v Hurricanes
2. Hurricanes v Blues
3. Hurricanes v
4. Force v
5. Hurricanes v Waratahs
8. Blues v Hurricanes
9. Rebels v Jaguares
11. Hurricanes v
12. Brumbies v Force
15. Jaguares v Waratahs
17. Bulls v Jaguares
18. Force v Chiefs
19. Blues v Hurricanes

[Rapido]

good start.

Got number 19 wrong,
