Love it. Love it. LOVE IT!

Good to see the guys are getting things unified on and off field, and using humour and a good ethic to do it. And not copping any excuses, and no exceptions.

Will the Runner take the Band out during a game to any player who shirks a contest?

I'm pleased with this idea and there might be a few players, who should have the words tattooed on their wrists.

Great idea. We are way too soft. But we don't want to get too carried away with this thing. If we do, we might end up being too aggressive on the field and giving away silly free kicks. We should be harder by tackling harder, running harder and promising not to let our opponents win.

great initiative though and very encouraging to see the boys as a team, as close group.
