During his commentary at the weekend Brian Moore said "Monye had another Hollywood dive there. He's beginning to look like a footballer".|||I'm not a big fan of Brian Moores commentary, but if he makes ridicule of anyone trying to bring this sort of acting into the game...I'm actually on his side! I'm a big fan of Monye's but I'm sure his team mates will have made him look at what he was trying to do in the changing rooms after the game.|||No. If you fancy yourself as an actor join a theatre company, not a rugby club. A law should be considered on the lines of, "If a player exaggerates the effect of an illegal body contact then he should be binned for ten minutes." Of course, in reality it would be very difficult to apply. Soccer players have moved on from the absurd rolling antics of 20 years ago but there are still too many prima donnas in the sport.|||It wasnt just Monye, the drive from Lee Byrne was pretty lame too at the end of the wlaes Scotland game, there is no place for this rubbish, its up to the Refs to ensure this doesnt creep in. Talking of the Scotland/Wales game, anyone wonder why Cusiter didnt kick out on the full when they restarted and all was level, they would have gotton the draw, they were a man down. and crucially...the time was over the 80!|||Sometimes a 10 will be hit late/marginally late after they pass/kick the ball. Sometimes to try to ensure the ref sees it and/or to milk a penalty they will stay down and feign an injury, but I wouldn't say they 'take a dive'. I think they'd be sorted out pretty quick if they started that carry on. I think Moore just doesn't like backs much so tries to portray them as soft.|||Only in 'Invictus'.
It seems rugby is heading in the direction of football, what with the new referee media scrutinization being employed in the Super 14 this year and now this.
Someone needs to hit Monye a slap and tell him to wise up; knock this stupid thing on the head before it catches on.|||Oh aye the noo mary doll.Its an english thing and Monye copied it from Steven the scouse theif Gerrard.The biggest diver since Jaque Cousteau.|||no because if it becomes a regular thing then with the slights touch leave the diving to the footballers|||It only happens in europe, buch of pansies|||I agree with Brian Moore, for once!
Leave that to the footballers!|||no.
