For those who wonder about this, finally found out the reason.
When there is a large number of the same colour bibs - this is generally due to game/tactics.
EXAMPLE: A game vs reserve grade side.
When there is a RED bib - it indicates rehab group / non contact.
EXAMPLE: Injured player returning from rehab
EXAMPLE: Player with an injury cloud.
When there is a PINK or YELLOW bib - it indicates a player either in opposing or attacking play.
EXAMPLE: Yellow bib might be an opposing player the coach wants to isolate.
EXMAPLE: Pink bib might be a primary player/s in a set play / attacking play.
NOTE: Pink is also used if the player/s is involved in a specific training drill.
The bib colours make it easier for players during training sessions to figure out one player from another.
When say 2 sides are playing each other (reserves vs first grade in a drill), reserves might wear all BLUE, with a danger player in yellow. Meanwhile first grade might have 1 or 2 players in pink who are involved in playmaking/trialling a set play.
Hope that explains things more
