[QUOTE="Ross Craig, post: 106009"] At the end of the day this argument could go on for ever. So long as the wearer is comfortable and the boot is legal, surely it doesn't really matter, different positions call for different needs, I play loose head prop and could not do my job as effectively in boots that our full back wears for example. However any boots that are any colour but black should be banned with immediate effect. It's wrong and quite frankly gay! I was disgusted earlier this season when I was the only member of the front row in a couple of games to not be wearing white and gold boots. I even appealed to the referee to intervene, but there were no legal laws being broken, and he said he was in no position to judge the morrality of the heinousness of wearing these abhorations, which I supopose was true with him being a ref and all. Apart from anything else, if you're wearing pink and green polka dot boots, you will not get away with "freeing the ball in rucks" when wingers happen to be on the wrong side! Come on lads, let's stamp this out out and leave the homosexuality to the footballers! [/QUOTE]
