    There’s probably a rule or something that says the entire kit has to be different. And if you’re in a scrum with your head down looking at the ball, you’re not looking at the other players jersey colour so different socks is how you tell team mates apart.

      To be fair, the referee is officiating a professional sport where you really need to be able to clearly distinguish between the legs of two people lunging quickly for the same ball with their feet.

      Probably sounds silly, but when that’s what 95% of the sport revolves around, you can understand them being picky on a detail like this.

    I don’t know if it’s because of Brexit or what but news out of Britain has become a lot like news out of Florida.

    BritishMan might overtake FloridaMan some day.
