Horse shit...I'm color blind...there's lots of other light variants they could have chosen.

Worst type of content - an 11 minute video to communicate something that could have been done in 2.

A plain white jersey has some gravitas….this looks like an awful modern golf shirt without a collar. But senior players approved it…what! I can see Malherbe modeling the thing and Vermeulen giving his nod. Or maybe it’s just another Snyman prank.

I doubt whether fans will be rushing to buy this ................ makes no sense, a marketing disaster.

I for one applaud the selection of this magnificent Boks jersey but surely it comes with matching little green boots.

Why doesn't everyone just have an alternate white jersey?

Yes, I'm all for the white jersey but I guess for marketing they want a different one for each RWC. The Abs have had some very average alternate jerseys.

En daar lig die krotbuurt brak weer sy been in die voorhuis...hoogtyd dat hy reggemaak word...skaaprekke behoort te werk, mits sy klokke nie te klein is nie...waarskynlik die geval...Pakie, jy dalk 'n ou geroeste knipmes wat 'n mens na so 'n onsmaaklike joppie maar kan weggooi?
