‘Brawl breaks out after rugby match’

Sir, – As a former St Michael's College student who has no interest in rugby whatsoever, then or now, I was fascinated by your report of a donnybrook in Donnybrook that required a mention that the schools allegedly involved were "fee-paying" ("Street brawl breaks out after rugby match", Online, January 30th).

Does this qualification mean we should expect a better quality of brawl or none at all? – Yours, etc,
