FRC proposals...black cards, marks etc

[Main Street]

What about the Tyrone choke tackle?  it's gathered a tactical momentum with being adopted as standard in the Irish rugby game, albeit a modified milder form - without the sly digs.
Surely we can't take away the Tyrone choke tackle from them?

They took away free-flowing football. f**k them.

Is this just in Football?

[Syferus]

Let's replace the Railway Cup with a Red Hand Rules series. Sure to ignite this board's interest, anyways.

I'm sure Mickey and co. are already working on a new stealth tackling system that uses pressure points to disable any opponent that crosses the halfway line.

Will the Black card reduce tactical substitutions as will have to hold a few back in case someone gets Black carded?

Correcto, Mickey has proposed that anyone who gets a yellow against tyrone costs his team two points, naturally the green card gets you a three point defecit and deported from the USA and the brown means you are shite and Tyrone benefit to the tune of four points, you get the picture.

Basically Mickey has Tyrone winning the next 17 AIF's by an average of Tyrone 0-6 the udders minus 1-8.

Are people more stupid than they used to be?
In general?
The amount of lads that watch a match like Mayo vs. Donegal today and think that because there would have been a heap of black cards, the game will descend into farce when the new rule comes in.
Complete inability to join the dots.

hopefully the black card introduction will see an end to the shite that was in castlebar today.

The refs don't know when to hand out a red or yellow card. Black is pointless to be honest and it just makes referees even more indecisive.

[The Trap]

I found it very interesting that the video used to back the FRC proposals featured footage mainly from Cork v Kerry games! Not a Tyrone man in sight (apart from Stevie O'Neill getting tripped)! I guess we can all blame those bad Munster Men  !!!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=QBhikkHoNcg

Yes - what happens to yellow cards now?

[ONeill]

Seems to me that yellows will be dished out for unintentional fouls (clumsy, bad tackling)
Black cards for intentional fouls (trips, rugby tackles)

Again, the jersey pull is not covered. Also those blocks are going to be impossible to manage. Going to be easy for the man laying off to deliberately time it so he runs into a defender just after release.

I can see it being used in some instances - to keep players behaviour in check or for lazy defending. Like I said, even if it is a rugby tackle challenge, it should be a yellow card. I would have preferred the introduction of a sin bin system.

How is it not covered?
