| Now , now , Springy , enough of that , there's a good chap , just leave it on the desk on the way out !!!!!!!! There is much more to it than that , I believe the punishment was correct , you must have discipline in team enviroments or you are only fooling yourself ! . I dont believe Watson should again put on the Baggy Green. Woeful in my opinion that a Vice Capt hasnt towed the line , what example is that to the rest of the team ?. Clarke hinted , or I should say said , that many things had gone on during the tour which they werent happy with, so they decided to act , I'm only dirty because these things should've been jumped on when they first appeared . Cheers 90th. |

| Fully agree. Sometimes tough love hurts. Do seem to recall a winger for the Boks being dumped at the height of his career for lack of team discipline. Not so fond rememberances of not doing my homework at school, still causes me to squirm. The wardress is letting me out early, time of for good behaviour. Be home in time for the birthday. Cheers |

Not sure if I agree 90th! There is a certain element of, if you treat grown men like schoolboys, they will start to behave like them and live down to those low expectations. Between you and me 90th, I blame the coach! Where's he from again? |
