[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 910009, member: 72977"] On the subject of coming back from a yellow early, looking at the hockey rule, it seems to work because the sin bin is very short at 2 minutes and there doesn't seem to be many goals scored. Where as for rugby 10 minutes is a longer time and to have a player come back after a minute because the opposition take a quick tap and score immediately would be ridiculous. Some one suggested twenty minutes for a red and ten for a yellow, how about halving them both so yellow is 5 mins? Is that long enough? If the idea is to separate dangerous and unfair play, then dangerous play would still have the same sin bin time with the addition of the playing not coming back and then the yellow sin bin would still leave the team a man down, but not completely handicap them for an eighth of the game.
