It's a fine line... had those players played maybe Westies would have won? Same with North? You never know and if you lose the game you're in a lose-lose situation. Yes, the culture must need changing and by banning them you are sending out a strong message, but at the same time these clubs must be kicking themselves and the supporters angry for not playing the best available 21 and losing the game. Had West and North won everything would be rosy....
