IRB sort it out,... and on Friday France vs Ireland- in football Ireland play in white against France/Italy, so why not in Rugby??

Utter madness I agree.

Gave up after about 30 mins

Radio 2 said it best. The Kiwi's were the ones in the silver tops scoring and the Scots were the ones in the silver tops not scoring. I think it would have been less confusing if they All Blacks had played in their normal colours :crazy:

Canada Vs Japan now and the kits are Red and Blue/black Vs Red and Blue/black.

Very confusing again.

It really is unbelievable that this should happen after the debacle on Sunday. What planet are the IRB on, and the officials and referee. A colour clash isn't just the shirt, it's also the shorts and socks, particularly in Union regarding rucks and mauls, it would be so easy to give a penalty to the wrong team. C'mon IRB wake up, 1 team in dark kit, the other in white/light. It just looks amateurish.
