Sounds very good but like all changes it all depends on whether they are actioned in practice. Referees must adopt a zero policy to abuse and disrespect on the field and they must be backed by the disciplinary committees afterwards.
Football is quite rightly criticised for allowing players to abuse referees but the mechanisms are already there to stop it almost immediately. All it would take is for referees to immediately show red cards and for them to be supported with offending players being banned. But they won't do it presumably because they know the FA won't support them. I hope rugby shows more backbone.
