Rugby needs integrated system
I WRITE in response to Nick Bannerman’s letter (Hawick News, December 23) regarding the current state of Hawick rugby. Like him, I deplored the events at the recent Wanderers v PSA match, but I don’t think it should provoke a knee-jerk reaction as there may well be a background to it. Could, for example, the pre-match team talks have been over-the-top, even if inadvertently? Both committees have apologised profusely, but I think the attempt to blame the referee was ill-advised.
