[QUOTE="William18, post: 632307, member: 38439"] Number 3 is ridiculous. Yellow cards are not an effective way of reducing infringements. FFS, there are currently about yellow cards in every game (never used to be) and the amount of penalties has stayed about the same. I think it is ridiculous that someone could receive a yellow card for being trapped at the bottom of a ruck and for nothing else. Yellow cards should be for moderately serious foul play and professional fouls. All #3 will do is disincentivise competing at the breakdown. Why would you compete when a little mistake will get you a yellow card? So they are going to basically remove the breakdown as a contest from the game. Good one. [/QUOTE]
