[QUOTE="galumay, post: 863054, member: 74590"] Its an interesting point I was talking with a mate about after the game, its not just SBW or the 4 or so stupid choices made by players last night, its nearly every game you watch. The coach can only do so much with coaching the players about their on field decision making. We all know the rules about contact with the head, taking players in the air and other foul play. Also as players they not only know the rules but are well aware that the scrutiny of actions on field is much more comprehensive. Maybe team managements need to take more responsibility with disciplining players themselves who make really bad choices. Its actually a life skill, and there are plenty of really hard and competitive players at the highest level who never make those bad choices so its pretty obvious its possible to modify ones behaviour. I have learnt in life that success is not so much governed by how many really good decisions you make, but more so how well you avoid the poor ones. I know I am drifting into philosophy and psychology but I suspect thats where the answers really lie. [/QUOTE]
