    Why do England, and I think it was Fiji, have player names on back of shirts, but no-one else does?

    As someone who folds toilet paper on the perforations when wiping, I like consistency and regiment, so it's bugging me.

    If they play each other you'll only be able to tell them apart by their names.

    Rugby jerseys do not have the players’ names on them because rugby always put the emphasis on the team rather than the individual12. Rugby adheres to an unwritten code surrounding sportsmanship, which includes not worshiping individual players1.
