[QUOTE="die_mole, post: 991450, member: 73648"] So . . . I laughed at it when I saw it, I think it's funny and just boys being boys. However, boys being boys isn't really a good mentality and is frankly quite dangerous. What I want from World Rugby is for them to come out and say "We haven't done a good enough job of making it known that this action is unacceptable in modern rugby. We understand that there is a difference between hijinks and assault, but it is impossible to investigate every occurrence. Therefore, we will not be banning Joe Marler as he would not have had enough information to know that these actions warrant a ban. However, in the future, actions similar to Mr. Marler's will be met with [insert ban here]. Rugby is a game for [insert PC bullshit here]. I fully expect them to either sweep it under the rug or give him a 20 week ban. [/QUOTE]
