FRC proposals...black cards, marks etc

[rodney trotter]

Passed by 70% call

[Zulu]

Its the death of reserve football - most clubs are struggling for numbers, picture the scene..........you scrape 15 players for a game and 2 get black cards with no subs to bring on, game ends up a disaster, players dont come as they are fed up.........this will happen unless........ref shows a bit of common sense (unlikely as reserve refs are usually completely by the book aka no common sense types).........when does this disaster begin?

Well at least you're keeping an open mind about it which is the main thing

Pick up off the ground fails.

Advantage rule for 5 secs is passed.

[Zulu]

If the 30m rule passed I'd be happy enough. Didn't have any real preference re the mark or pick up proposals.

"A public Time Clock shall be used in Croke Park and in all Grounds used for Provincial and All Ireland Series Senior Football Championship Games. The clock shall be stopped for injuries and other deliberate or incidental delays on the instructions of the Referee, which shall be conveyed visible (and audibly if wired) to the official in charge of the clock. The end of the game shall be signalled by a hooter, but a ball in flight shall be allowed to complete its journey and if that results in a score, the score shall stand."

Black cards.

Can't believe this. Mickey Harte will be up in arms. It's too early to say what impact they will have but I'd imagine that referees everywhere will be muttering a big 'ah for f**k sake'.

Delegates changed their minds of had their minds changed for them ??

Disappointed to see that 30m penalty was not passed. Have mixed thoughts on mark. If advantage was given to player making catch in all areas of field it would not be needed. Clock should be a good idea. For me the idea behind the black card is laudable. However, will the referees be good enough to operate it properly, will it make diving more likely and will it favour those with stronger panels. I also feel it will only stop the last ditch tackle which is nowhere near as prevalent as the deliberate fouls around the midfield area which is the real blight on the game.

my big hope is that it stops forwards deliberately dragging players down to stop teams attacking quickly......imagine Brogan/Gooch/Murphy etc getting subbed off early in a big game....I'd say that managers will demand that they behave...
