1933 Accidentally Cyril Fougasse Kenneth Mark Player Pseudonym Referee Rugby Told Admonished December Hurting
EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous colour illustration by Kenneth Cyril Bird, better known as Fougasse, captures a comical moment on the rugby field. The scene depicts an overly large rugby player being scolded by the referee for accidentally hurting another player. The expression on the giant player's face is priceless as he looks sheepishly at the referee, clearly caught in the act.
The attention to detail in this historical illustration is remarkable, from the players' uniforms to the intensity of the game taking place. Fougasse has truly captured a snapshot of a tense moment during a rugby match, with all its drama and humor intact.
It's easy to imagine what might have led up to this scene - perhaps our gentle giant got a little too carried away with his strength and inadvertently caused some chaos on the field. But despite his size and power, even he must abide by the rules of fair play.
This print serves as a reminder that even in competitive sports like rugby, it's important to play with respect for your opponents. And sometimes, even if you didn't mean any harm, you still might find yourself being told off by the referee - just like our lovable but clumsy giant here.
