They've tweaked it a bit now into a card system, but still a great innovation.

Works OK in the VAFA, yellow, red and black cards. I think yellow is off for 12 minutes, and red is off for 12 minutes no replacement, black is off for the remainder of the game, reported and no replacement until 12 minutes has elapsed. Or something like that.

The AFL could do this in conjunction with the video ref as a safe guard to an obvious error and to confirm the level of the penalty!

A send off rule has some merits but is also diluted in its effect in a game with 18 on the park. It is also difficult to enforce in the context of a contact sport where there is great variation in the nature of contacts. For example in soccer the difference between a foul and an action worthy of a yellow or red card tends to be clearer.

Further complicating the picture is the manner in which reports are determined,  including concepts of intent and the degree of impact. A send off rule would make this even more complex, with a high degree of subjectivity involved.

The application of discretion by the umpire would be difficult when the range of penalties are expanded by the addition of a send off rule.  It increases the area of grey.

I think it works at an amateur level and elevates the umpires with some more authority and clout. At league level, with TV cameras on, it may be less useful.

I don't listen to SEN, but Maxwell is occasionally an "expert commentator" on the games on TV, and I agree Woodstock. I can see why he was made Captain.

Maxwell is a good talker and has great knowledge.

So you all reckon the fall out from last Friday nights beyond putrid effort was big, lose this week and its strap yourselves in and enjoy the ride. And I reckon we are just the mob to do it. Sad #mothersdaymassacre

Leppa apologised for man handling one of his players this week - he looks shot. Brisbane are no chance, losing this would be a staggering result

I honestly feel nauseous just thinking about it.

The player involved sounds like a bit of a cocky punk, but still, that's no excuse for what Leppa did.

Looks like SOP for frustrated coach with problem player... when I played I wished teh roach grabbed a couple of the seagulls I played with.
