[QUOTE="Mrs. Peter Quinn, post: 582301, member: 12190"] I mean you're right of course...but they only call for a card because they know referee's often will do it... penalty after penalty is quite a good return for any team, if it means 3 points per go, and 7 if it might have led directly to a try. Thinking back to England Ireland last year... Ross came off and Court on. Ross himself had been under pressure; if carded, and Court comes on, then the referee would have been directly responsible for the ensuing clusterf*ck. That's the sort of situation that can happen a lot for teams with poor strength in depth in props. But I see what you mean... e.g if the penalties are not kickable, yet they keep on happening...the referee needs a way to escalate the situation. [/QUOTE]
