Respectfully disagree, when listening to some of the recent Rugby you could actually hear some of the players calling the ref Sir and asking if things were OK. Also the attitude towards opposing players seems genuine. They may have just crunched into someone with a tackle but they seem genuinely concerned when a player is down injured.
With football you get the feeling that any sympathy is just lip service partly because they don`t know if the other player is faking it or not!
