[QUOTE="BPM, post: 1064358, member: 59968"] Agreed. I think a lot of it depends on how cynical the offences are and where they are on the pitch. If it’s foul play, there’s no debate. If it’s persistent, calculated offences to prevent teams from scoring, even 2/3 penalties in the red zone = yellow is fine for me. Conversely, let’s say there’s a series of unrelated penalties for minor/technical offences that occur across 10-15 minutes all over the pitch, I think it’s another thing entirely. For example, should an accumulation of a scrum penalty, or a technical lineout offence, a seatbelt tackle, a breakdown penalty etc. be treated in the same way if they’re unrelated (I.e. not in the same passage of play) and none of the offences is directly trying to prevent a try scoring opportunity?
