May be an email to Brian Barwick would do the trick.
As for the shoulder charge & other seemingly rough & sometimes dirty play ,we could kit the players out in padding & crash helmets ,call it American football (this would also eliminate forward passes at a stroke ) & remove offences for rough & dirty play from the rule book thus restoring extreme biff to RL.
