Well they don’t have to worry about the tackle height as that’s mostly ignored anyway

If a team has to go to uncontested scrums, they must permanently remove another player. But a red card is temporary.

Rugby Australia is dying. Rugby league is more popular in Australia. RA are continually lobbying for union to be more like league. I see this as part of watering down of correct high tackle laws to satisfy Australian fans more used to league.

A red card in Rugby League and Rugby Union are for Violent and unacceptable behaviour
Those players in my opinion should remain from the field of play and not be replaced after 20 minutes The only reason this is being considered is because the people who have paid £250 for a ticket want to see a more competitive game of rugby.

tulip, as I understand the law the player sent off remains off and a new player takes his place. I agree a Violent player should remain sent off.

Personally, I don't think that either the World Cup final nor the Premiership final was 'ruined' by a red card, despite the losing side in each playing nearly an hour with 14 men.

Agreed Mark and I suppose Sam Warburtons red against France in World Cup semifinal in my opinion wasn’t a red and did spoil the game and perhaps a 20 minute replacement would have been justified
It’s a tricky one

RL has always been more popular in Australia so nothing new here. And I bet RA wish they had the influence you think they do.

It seems the IRFU have also come out against the 20 minute trial.
"The Irish Rugby Football Union says like the French it does not support 20-minute red cards replacing permanent red cards entirely and welcomed the retention of the more severe sanction for the autumn internationals."

When I first heard the idea thought it was daft, but now its made clear its for the 'careless' red cards similar to clumsy high tackles it seems reasonable. Deliberate foul play record cards will still stay off as they should. Perhaps we should have orange cards!!!!

To issue a card, there has to be foul play. Players at this level should know how to tackle. What do we have to do to ingrain safety into coaching? |
