| Bonymaen ... that was a good show, I watch the series a few weeks ago. As for swearing - never in front children - especially those under the age of 45. Seriously though - never in front children

| I agree, but I'm much more concerned with aggressive behaviour - from children and adults - which often manifests itself with a tirade of abusive swearing. I'm not talking about natural outbursts by the way, such as bashing a thumb with a hammer, but full on shouting matches, seething undercurrents or "red mists". I think keeping a lid on it full stop - whether it's coarse language or anger - is pretty much a basic necessity for anyone in authority, particularly where children are involved.

| Never. Its a bad example at midi and youth level its not acceptable and you must be a role model. When they are running things for themslves leave them to it. Deano

Never should it be seen at age group level, think most importandly: Are kids running out to play for national pride or a salary? No, they wanna have fun, whether they are winning or losing - let kids have fun

| I believe swearing is the language of the unintelligent man.... Think about the most common swear word F***K it can be substituted for all parts of speech so if you cannot think of an intelligent word you can easily swear. I even dont swear coaching adults

 Mate, you're a better man than I...agreed re: coaching youth & when addressing refs (as difficult as THAT can be!)but I think with adults on the odd occasion, using swear words (despite the unintelligence it may reveal) can get a message across- in 5yrs of coaching provincial B rugby I swore at players twice- once at an AWEFUL practice & once in a final... both times the players took notice & reacted appropriately.
