I'm stepping down as a ref in light of the NA debate (I have a feeling Bill will too), I don't think I am helping the London scene develop if the front wheel advantage/cutting a line NA approach is the future of polo.
I also think London needs to start playing "dickishly" if we don't want to get left behind. If you have the front wheel advantage (in any situation) then you are allowed to wreck the player behind you.
I'll keep an eye on the NAH forum, but I don't "get it", so will watch from the sidelines (let other Euro refs step up) until it all becomes crystal.
I may also try playing a bit harsher at Rouen and see how it goes down (out carve the opposition, force a crash for the player on the inside of your turn, keep playing, etc).
