Bath rugby team.
Here a heated fast action of a match, in which the referee will be very attentive, in order to stop immediately any dangerous action that might cause wounds. Rugby is a boys’ game, virile and rough, it should not turn violent or nasty. There are penalties for violent or foul play: punching, elbowing, kicking, head-butting, tripping and anything that may be contrary to good sportsmanship. We see several players wearing gloves and protective bands on their thighs or knees. Grabbing an opponent’s shirt does not seem to be a reason to stop the game.
