I have been watching and playing when clothes lines were legal. Spearing was allowed it was more fun to play back them.
When neighborhoods played other neighborhoods it was a gang fight.
I used to carry a pen knife in the pile up and with stab a guy 7 or 8 times. Then the guy gets up he was full of blood.
Before the snap I would spit in his face to get him to go offside.
Guy lost his helmet I would go out of my way to cleet him if he went down. If he was up I put my helmet in his face. Stick my fingers in his eyes
