My god you do despair at the stupidity of this sport's administrators don't you.The whole world was scratching their heads in disbelief at how both sides can be allowed to take the pitch in close to identical colours. Have these people ever played the game for heaven's sake? Seeing your team mate out of the corner of your eye and acting accordingly is a big part of the game. Glance at this picture and you do not know who is who!
The NZ players were clearly a little confused with a number of passes going to the wrong man, and has the poor old ref been allowed to comment on this cock-up! How could he tell who was offending in a ruck? The shorts and socks were practically the same colour too, so no help there either!
Once again another admin balls-up - thank you IRB. I wait in vain for the announcement of the blazer responsible being sacked.
On another note, the Frogs dark blue kit was apparently designed so that when they play NZ in the final, the ABs would have to change to the grey. A cunning plan totally screwed by the fact that they are now going to meet in the Quarters, in Cardiff! So who is the home team then? Will it be NZ as a pool winner? I think we should be told. Well done all at Nike. And a team in grey has never won anything of note either.
