    Can we move on from the jerseys? Yes, it's a ****e choice, but there's a cracking match to watch.

    Please stop about the jerseys. :(

    The SA shorts are white. Not hard to pick out.

    The only time I've seen a worse class was Scotland's Saltire away kit against Italy's near identical blue and white strip. Both teams changed into virtually the same shirts.

    Can someone tell me and other casual rugby watchers what’s the story behind the op?

    It's an extremely low effort op taking the piss out of some of the better efforts that often include nice tables with the line up and statistics of both teams.

    What makes matters worse with the jerseys is the fact that SA's number 5 looks the spit of Henderson. Hard to decipher who is who during the line-outs :D

    Was that someone shouting "fire in the hole?" ffs!

    Good return from scrums for Ireland, definitely an area to target

    Did RTE just do some colour correction, all of a sudden there's more contrast between the jerseys
