I'm old school and was brought up on this kind of thing, albeit a watered down version. Here's what I think now; the kind of skills and attitudes these players are displaying are too binary to be of much use in the modern world. We need courage but not aggression in our day to day lives. People who leave, say, the military or boarding school, find what was respected and admired there is not respected or useful in their new lives. In my early club days there was a quiet guy in the backrow who studiously kept out of any pre match huddle / shouting, then played in a thoroughly committed way, and was then friendly and good mannered to all and sundry in the bar afterwards. I understand he became a QC and was well respected. He had learnt to be brave and committed without manic winding up, and this is the kind of life skill which would serve anyone well.
So, imagine if those players in the video were instead able to bring themselves up to the required level of courage and commitment by confidence, and sense of their own ability and a strong inner strength, a strength they can tap into and control when it is needed be it on the rugby pitch or in day to day life. That would a skill that will serve them all their lives and in any situation, and without them having to rely on the presence of others.
