You'd hope so. Modern rugby players have to be very anerobically fit these days and explosive, both of which will hopefully mean there's not that much difference
Apart from the shape of the ball…obviously

Yes I agree but when they go down for something innocuous holding their head or rolling about its bloody pathetic be honest we c
ould do without it.
I often wonder if any of these cheats ever watch a game back and realise what a right james hunt they look...but I doubt it :nope:

I agree its all become part of the game since the increase in foreign players started. It was a guaranteed antic by European sides, particularly the Med sides.
Probably deemed as a racist comment by some but thats how it was in the 60s 70s and probably early 80s

It's been an accepted part of Premier League football for at least 3 decades. City have had plenty of cheats, same as anyone else.

I remember Rodney Marsh coming to NP in 68 with QPR with a solid reputation for diving. Sure enough he earned himself a penalty.

The only score I remember from that era is my first ever game when we lost 5-1 to Derby County. Despite the result I was hooked.
