			<description><![CDATA[The local "news" story was loaded with misinformation. Raptors is not a culture of bounties or any emphasis on dirty rugby. They are good people who started a new team. It is in a lesser income area than the other teams, so they got a bunch of fresh new kids to the sport of rugby, then did a great job putting a competitive team. False charges were made by a disgruntled Raptor Coach who was fired before their first game for being negative with the kids. He went to an opposing team with his son and these are the ones "stepping out to say" that these slanderous false things happened. What really happened was these former teammates played each other and (13yr olds we're talking about) were joking around. We all agree that even joking about bounties is wrong, but this is not a reason to shut down an entire new program. NCYRA did NOT do a fair or thorough investigation or have a public hearing. There ARE butt-hurt bratty parents who've glommed on to lies, but NO TRUTH to the bounties.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I would like to see more coaches suspended or red carded, as soon as it becomes apparent that they have players who regularly high tackle. In my opinion, player discipline always starts from the coach on down!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[And have any of you bothered to read any follow up reports? The ones that retract the suspension? Hmmm... Could that mean that the reports were unfounded?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I know that my high school football team and some rugby programs I've been associated with gave an award or cheer at the bar for the biggest hit in a game. I wonder if this will be deemed unacceptable in today's climate.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[As much as I love rugby, let's face it, it's just a game. And in the US, it's definitely just a game. You don't make money doing it and winning a championship really is nothing more than a pat on the back. Personally, fighting and getting all over-hyped for games is overboard for me. To have bounties is utter stupidity. The coaches should be banned for life and if I was a parent, I would look for some civil or even criminal action against them. This stuff makes me mad.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The Van Tonder Family led many youth down the wrong path or merely joined them. All participants in this mercenary contract clearly don't understand the nuanced fine line drawn regarding Conduct in Principles of the Game (explaining quite well actual conditions in my opinion). Time for all to refresh on the Object of the Game and the Principles of the Game.]]></description>
