If the Rugby World Cup was held next week
December 1 2009
The season is finished and although it’s possibly a season better forgotten by Wallaby supporters, there were many positives to come from the Northern Hemisphere tour.

Sorry Rickety, but whilst I agree with much of your sentiment (which I have already outlined) your comment regarding still only 21 doesn’t hold water with me. We have young men of 18 plus at war making decisions on peoples lives. Whilst you may argue they have the training, you would think at 21 the training was there to make the decisions he made in a benign environment. I have a 20yo and he would no more consider behaviour like that than fly the moon. He’s also played against Quade at schoolboy level and he is shocked at both the news and alleged behaviour.
Unfortunately, this 3 strikes crap doesn’t hold water with me either. Perhaps if we are talking about minor incidents, but this cannot be considered minor. If proven, it should be game over!

Agree with that Sheek. If proven, no Wallaby or Reds jersey. Game over!

Whilst I’m in favour of bringing rucking back, I would not want to be the person responsible for its re-introduction. Can you imagine the first Saturday after the law change. The poor referees will be in an unenviable situation. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it can’t be done but the management of its re-introduction will be critical to not only the player’s safety but the ability to control what actually constitutes rucking as we who have seen it all before know it to be.
I would also think it would be unwise to have it apply in under 19 law. Thoughts?
