[QUOTE="bushytop, post: 984565, member: 56738"] Wow, that is horrible... and unexpected! There is always a degree of violence whenever you get large amounts of people together who a) are consuming alcohol and b) representing/supporting a competitive team structure... but the incident you have described takes it way over what I’ve come to expect in Wales. The majority of violence derived from sport has always been to do with football in Britain. You don’t hear so much about it in the mainstream media anymore (conveniently) but I know guys who are well in to their football and there are always videos circulating involving ‘hooligan’-esque activities. I’d imagine that the public and political sphere’s are probably very anti-rugby at the moment in Argentina, which is a shame but from the way you described the incident... difficult to defend.
