Note, I've been shoved off my bike once (in polo obviously...) ... in the back no less!
If that had been filmed I wonder at the uproar it would have caused on internet forums?
At the time the game stopped, I bitched a little about my elbow and made a few sarcastic remarks to the offender. But looking back, I think it's pretty funny, the game had gotten pretty dirty and it wasn't the worst thing in the world (not even in that game!) and consider the offender one of the nicest guys that I've met through polo!
When it comes down to it, I think the DBAD rule works when it's a bunch of mates messing about... having throwins... (which I assume this video was taken at) but doesn't work at all in a competative/tourney type situation.
