Unacceptable face of rugby tradition

Sir — Growing up, we were always told that sticking your tongue out at others was bad manners. Making rude faces and saying nasty things were also inexcusable.

So with their superb rugby skill, the All Blacks don’t need to misbehave like this. It’s high time to end this nasty ancient custom. No wonder they lost yesterday. Sean Quinn,
