i've just had a read of this
what an absolute sham of a system - player A gets banned for an indiscretion, then a longer ban for his next, and again, and again, and again. How have the clubs agreed to such a system, as we'll never have any players on the pitch for us all to watch or may as well start playing touch rugby
"Once a player receives a certain amount of points then the respective punishment will be handed down. Bans start being enforced after six or more points on the system and cap out at a twelve-match ban for 54 or more points.
The points tariff is as follows:
– 0-2 No further action
– 3-5 Fine
– 6-8 1 match suspension
– 9-11 1 match suspension and a fine
– 12-14 2 match suspension
– 15-17 2 match suspension and a fine
– 18-20 3 match suspension
– 21-23 3 match suspension and a fine
– 24-26 4 match suspension
– 27-29 4 match suspension and a fine
– 30-32 5 match suspension
– 33-35 5 match suspension and a fine
– 36-38 6 match suspension and a fine
– 39-41 7 match suspension and a fine
– 42-44 8 match suspension and a fine
– 45-47 9 match suspension and a fine
– 48-50 10 match suspension and a fine
– 51-53 11 match suspension and a fine
– 54 + 12 match suspension plus and a fine
It’s important to note that points do not reset after a ban has been served so for example, if a player hits 26 points, they will serve a four-match ban. Upon returning to play, if they are charged with a Grade C offence (worth five points) then that takes them to a five-match ban automatically."
