| I've touched on this before and it may seem rediculus but there is an case here to say that Wire are arguably better when wearing a white strip with a half decent side.
Over the recent generations I can only recall Wire picking up the odd trophy through the barron years of the 80s until present wearing a strip that has a generous percentage of white, with one exception being the (easy winnable) Lancs cup in 89/90.
This rule of thumb has been looked at in footballing circles and red is a dominant colour over blue.
Hull wearing a much white strip are now league leading and already CC champions with a team that I consider not particularly great.

| There is also another train of thought that says red is integral to winning performances. Maybe a rainbow effect would cover all bases.

What a strange post. If you consider our team to be not particularly great then by inference your team certainly aren't, whatever colour shirts they're wearing. They were good enough to be 10 points up with very little time left and I for one didn't expect us to come back and get the win.

| Is this the reason Leeds never win anything while playing in mainly blue ?

| Lol. I realise the bazaarness of the notion.
There are periods where colour of a strip has little effect if any at all, the overwhelming depth of quality in a team as with Leeds in 2015, that would always be king...
However I'm talking about marginals here...Warrington haven't been particulary great since the 50s but those high points during those barren years seem to come when our team has a strip that has a prominent depth of white in it...but as with Leeds in 2015, Warrington did have a team of utter depth in quality in 1973/74. We could have played in majority pink and won....Arh I think leeds did!
So yes, there are many more reasons where a colour change would have no effect, but if the opposition are closely matched a white or red strip could give the edge.

| Didn't Man Utd change there strip at Half time in one game because they couldn't see each other.
Maybe we should try yellow hats

| He might have a point, whenever I watch test cricket or Wimbledon the winners always seem to be wearing white
As for us at Leeds Rhinos, during the Sinfield captaincy we only had a white away kit twice, in 2004 and 2009, the same two years we won the LLS before last year's success.
