SCO rugby tartan?

[Mipi]

Hope this is the right place for my post.

I was watching (with one eye at least) the rugby match on Saturday; Wels vs. Scotland. After 9:24, Scotland lost in last minutes with 32:24!?!?

But I'm posting this in Tartan& Heraldry, while I managed to see some kilts on the tribunes. Tartan was in very much earthy tone. So I went on Google and try to find this tartan. My guess is, it's related to rugby. I didn't find any tartan related to rugby that would look like what I have in my memory.

Any suggestions?

THX!

Hi Mipi,

There are 6 tartans in the Scottish Register of Tartans with the word 'rugby' in the title. This one is called Scottish Rugby Union and was designed for them.

Thanks Chas!

This means, the tartan I saw on TV has nothing to do with rugby at all. I thought I'll find it, while it was very nice.

For the sake of completeness, Mipi, I am posting the other 5 as well.
