Verbal winding up I absolutely love and should remain part of the game, the old England V Aussie’s cricket matches was class before we turned into schoolboys scared of our own shadows.
But the messing of hair used to send me ballistic, I remember one in particular an opposition player did it to one of our players after a cock up and almost to a man we went ballistic, fists flying everywhere.
Needless to say he didn’t do it again even in the away match.

I hate agreeing with anyone vaguely linked with the Welsh, but I have to 100% agree with Welshy on this one. Penalty followed by Yellow card for next offence, etc. Not in our game please!
If winning isn't everything, why do they bother keeping score?

Re: Slapping opposition players on the head after mistakes.
it's more of an all black thing. If you remember correctly Brad Thorn got sin binned in the autumn internationals last year for doing it to Nick Easter. This was the only time i have seen it being dealt with. sorry about any hurt caused

I'm sure when the player who does it looks at the video they are embarrassed. It looks very petty and childish.
