RUGBY fans furiously slammed the scintillating Six Nations finale as “unwatchable”.
France hosted England at a raucous Stade de France with the title on the line for the hosts.
Those tuning in to catch the action on TV were treated to another sizzling showdown in this thrilling tournament.
Thomas Ramos’ clutch penalty with the very last kick of the 2026 Six Nations secured a 48-46 win and clinch the title, breaking Irish hearts.
However, many were too distracted to enjoy the action because of the clash in kits.
England wore their traditional white shirts and white shorts with navy socks.
But France were not in their usual royal blue.
Instead, they wore a lighter, duck-egg blue shade of shirt.
And from afar on the regular TV camera angle, it made it tricky to distinguish between the two teams.
Six Nations fans were baffled by the decision to allow the similar kits – especially now Ireland’s green and Wales’ red is now banned to help colourblind supporters.

One blasted: “Insane kit clash on France vs England. Who on earth signed off on light blue against white?”
Another fumed: “France vs England is practically unwatchable with how close the shirt colours are. Pathetic for TV.”
A third moaned: “England v France taking the absolute p*** with these kits.”
A fourth raged: “They are so similar, you don’t have to be colourblind to have trouble telling them apart.”
And a final user whined: “I love the France shirt, but whoever gave it the thumbs up against the England white kit should be fired. Marketing over common sense.”
ITV commentator Nick Mullins did address the topic during the match and told viewers to look out for the socks if struggling.
He then explained the French powder-blue kit was a nod to 120 years of Le Crunch rivalry between England and France.
Les Bleus wore a sky-blue kit in the very first encounter between the two teams all the way back in 1906.
And, unsurprisingly, the stunning retro jersey went down a storm with French fans.
The limited-edition adidas shirts sold out in minutes – and there is now a four-month waiting list, Mullins added.
