Yes, they are very dirty, but nothing compared to Lancaster. They appear to be coached that way. I think "The Five" must stand for 1. Tackle from behind, 2. Truck stick girls in the open field, 3. Clothesline them in the circle, 4. Body slam in the box, and 5. Studs up in the six




I think the bolded part offers a type of reasonable explanation. It's not that the coach is telling them to play dirty, it is to play overly aggressive and physical type soccer. Kind of play through them as opposed to play around them
