The Rugby World Cup kicks off on Friday with the match between hosts France and the All Blacks in Paris.

The jerseys on display among the 20 teams are a talking point, so TimesLIVE decided to discuss them — how they will look on the field, the innovations, the hits, the misses and which shirts South Africans might consider wearing as leisurewear.

In this episode digital sports editor Marc Strydom is joined by Sunday Times and TimesLIVE senior rugby writer Liam Del Carme, Arena Holdings digital lifestyle editor Thango Ntwasa, Sunday Times and TimesLIVE head of news Fienie Grobler and Sunday Times and TimesLIVE head of production Phumza Sokana to discuss the 2023 World Cup jerseys.

Below is a visual reference of the 20 home and away jerseys.
