And now we have commentators making excuses for players being soft wankers.I mentioned our Franny, all 5 foot 7 of him sending Hunter (6 foot something) backwards and down in an earlier post. If it was a boxing match the ref would have stopped it. More hard players and deliberate foulers in those days. Even commentators didn't criticise 'em. 'Professional foul' they used to say as though it was perfectly acceptable.
'Oh, if you look closely you'll see there was contact'
'Yes, he has the right to go down there'
