Oz,I think that players and coaches in any sport,anywhere,will adjust to the officials that they get in any particular game.If we set a certain standard of comportment for them in that game,they'll figure it out in a hurry.If they know they're gonna get penalised for swearing,they'll tone it down.I think they just have to know what they can do or not do in a particular game.It's really no different than having to adjust to,say,the level of contact under the boards allowed by different officials.
I think that there would also be no problems for us to adjust to Aussie brownpop,too!Except Fosters.
