@rugbyphilosophy Coaching is fine to an extent. It's when its in the red zone or the same players being coached for the same thing over and over again. That's when it diminishes the point of a penalty and undermines the refs authority. Play advantage more if you want to flow the game
@1stFive8 What a dumb comment. Not all head contact requires HIAs. The card and penalty are for the infringement and potential danger...not the injury caused. VDF going for HIA doesn't mitigate Jacobsons actions
@v_freedman@5thOfSanogo@bytopux It's not about intent anymore, since WR provided the clarifications. it's purely about whether the player was in a reasonable position to catch the ball. If they follow all the previous precedents it should have been a yellow. Altho it's stupid law imo
@ChalynRugby I wish crowd attendance was the litmus test. Unfortunately the new player pipeline is drying up with less grass root players sticking with or joining rugby after school. Countries like NZ and RSA will be fine but countries competing with other sports are dying
@crucesignatiDL@___TheGOOdWitch HS You can't be this thick. Telling people what's "wrong" with them is not the same as showing them love through self denial or teaching them about self denial or sacrifice. It's just giving into your prejudices
@crucesignatiDL@___TheGOOdWitch Yes because yours aren't based on facts but rather your own presumptions. Far different from affirmative actions to address specific issues or systemic failures
@crucesignatiDL@___TheGOOdWitch Oh I see you're teaching them to do it what you can't and passing the buck. So all people of black culture should be more humble... Seems that should apply to everyone. Why only specifically them? And the raped as children comment, should they just have self denied being raped?
@crucesignatiDL@___TheGOOdWitch Observing culture and behaviour is one thing but to state that an entire group that shares skin colour lacks humility or success? That's the definition of racial stereotyping and assumed race superiority.
