See my response to Assassin above... I think I addressed the possibility of a bite carrying disease... i.e. saliva entering the bloodstream if skin is broken or from bacteria on the teeth...
The fact is you are just as liable to catch some infectious disease from an opposing player through biting and spitting as you are by being headbutted (accidentally) and both players' skin is broken and thus the possibility of blood transfer. It is a risk I am willing to take, that foot tackle a la Roy Keane is a sure career ender!
