I laugh at the self rightous idiots who scoff that it's "not part of the game". IN a perfect world, there would be nothing but honesty in a game of RL. So, to uphold the high ethics that you lambaste Isaac Luke for not living up to, do this test.
Go and grab a tape of any game in the last 40 years. Count up how many times the following ocurrs:
- Player says "It wasnt a strip. I lost it cold"
- Player says "Ref, I'm offside"
- Player admits knocking on in the act of scoring a try
- Player says "Ref, lets call it a scrum. I didn't really gain an advantage"
- Player says "He didn't drop the ball - I stripped it"
- Player says "Yes ref, I did hit him high"
- Player says "Ref, my scrum feed was poor - the other guys should have the ball"
If you do find the game where any of that happened, either 1) send me a copy, and I will apologise for being wrong, or 2) quit taking hallucinogenic
drugs.
