I believe the premiership had that rule.
But it was never in RFU regulations.
I see no reason for a side to wear anything other than their main kit, unless there is a clash.
And as long as the change strip does not clash with the clubs main strip - they should have a shirt they can wear.

Indeed. And it looked lovely on the home jersey piping last year. Now the lads look a bit Oompa Loompa.

Wasn't the predominantly white regulation something to do with TV?

oh my - just saw Pirates new strip. Away is purple and home is red. The away kit has a fade effect where it darkens to black towards the bottom. With the black shorts being worn with it in the picture, it looks like they have strangely high waistlines.

Don't think it's purple - it's predominantly red.

So home is red and away is red?

Can't see any problems with that!

Championship rule; colours of change strip have to be different to the first choice kit.

starting to get excited about the prospect of a rugby fest. RWC starts Friday, Championship Cup starts on Friday (although we don't play until Saturday) and got my flights & hotel booked for Bedford on the 1st February.

Only 2 more big sleeps until it all starts!!!!

BRING IT ON BABY !!

Going back a while (FDR days?) the change kit had to be 'light' if the home kit was 'dark' (and vice versa) and a different colour…..which seemed sensible as it covered most eventualities including visual impairment, colour blind, TV etc...…...not quite sure when/why that one went - or indeed if I'm just imagining it...

Crazy last season - Coventry in dark blue and white hoops playing Nottingham in dark green and white hoops in an evening match under lights.

We have had similar in N2 with Worthing in Dark Blue and Yellow hoops and Henley in Dark Green and Yellow hoops, virtually indistinguishable. In fact in one game both teams changed at half time (presumably at referees request) so Henley should always have been in their change kit as the away side.

Brizzer - you and all the travelling fans will be made very welcome at GR as usual.
And yes, bring on the World Cup, the TV record function is set!  It's winnable this time methinks!

It was crazy. There was quite a bit of mud to add to the mirkyness. But it was both first team kits. Not a change kit clashing with a first kit.
