You only have to go to the footy to know it will happen.
Pathetic incident like knocking out one of their players deliberately?
Fair enough then.
There are obvious instantances that should be red cards eg Hall/Staker and ones that aren't.

Why does this great game of ours have some much dependence on umps never getting anything right?
Can't rely on umps interpretations so that means we can't have fairer rules.
