Leinster have revealed their alternative kit for next season and the reaction hasn’t been good, to put it lightly, writes Gavin Spillane.
The jersey hasn’t exactly captured the imagination of Leinster fans and many took to Twitter to air their disgust and poke fun at the luminous kit.

While the general consensus is that this jersey isn’t the best, there are plenty of positives to be drawn from it.
Just think about the money saved on floodlight costs during the winter.
