WRWC Final - NZ Vs England

@Bones so we have 31 inc those sitting on the bench, but 8 of them sitting, waiting, only able to enter the game if one of thier team mates to get a RC....

Just keep the red card for thuggery (eye gouging and other grub acts) and some other colour (fuckit, Blue card) for head contact in tackles/rucks etc. Specific card for the accidental head contact that they want to reduce. Have that at 20mins, and if the players technique doesn't improve bump it up to 30mins the next year.

Leaves the onus on the coaches and players to solve the issue, doesn't ruin the game for the fans, has actions to protect the players and address the hilarious NH opinion that 20min red cards will have players running around like the love child of Richard Loe and Troy Flavell.

@taniwharugby I reckon 27/28 would cover it.

Prop/hooker
Other forward
Two backs

Or maybe one prop, one hooker and the rest.

@Bones

Have seen Frankie and her parents through the London based RWC watch parties etc

Seems like a good kid and I think here Dad is loving the journey with her on it too.

"There's a men's English team somewhere, that just watched the women's rugby cup final and has just decided they're sick of Eddie, stuff pre-match training, and aren't going to cheat in the game next weekend because the All Blacks still have that aura."

@nostrildamus sometimes your words are an enigma, wrapped in an enigma.
