I hear what you're saying, but where do you stop with that approach?
Its clear that senior rugby players may regularly get extremely drunk... so do you introduce the boys to beer?
Its clear that at times debauchery occurs on rugby tour - so do you have a post match lunch with a lap dancer and where you all smash a few chairs and tables?
Its clear some senior rugby players take drugs, both performance enhancing and recreational... so one week do you all take steroids, and then after the game snort a few lines?

Sorry, can't agree. As a coach and ref, in this situation, I woyuld calmly talk to the ref at a suitable break - and I realise how hard it is to remain calm - and let him know you're not happy with the situation.
If it continues, pull the boys off
But never encourage retaliation, it's the top of a very slippery slope.
As junior coaches we have a responsibility to remember the boys will parrot our touchline behaviour - possibly for the rest of their careers

| We need to STAMP IT OUT mate!... Ugly stuff has NO place in te game of rugby- if one of my players is dirty & I hear about it/ see it, he's off the field & he rides pine for the next fixture/ until he sorts himself out. If ppl want to coach thugs ther's great sports for that (MMA, boxing & martial arts all come to mind... on 2nd thoughts, they require too much discipline for scum who engage in dirty play) We ALL have a duty to ensure our players are physical & aggressive within the spirit and Law of the game, otherwise we're doing the wrong thing!
