If you’ve been watching Super Rugby you may have seen this mysterious new White Card. The White Card is meant to be a way for a referee to say that an incident needs to be looked at again by the citing commissioner. Seen by some as a cop out, is it a good or bad idea?
In a recent Cheetahs vs Highlanders, game the White Card was used. Take a look…
By the looks of it there is no way that that should have just been a Yellow Card. Both ARs have recommended Red, but the referee decides to go with Yellow and a White Card. I don’t see any justification for going with a Yellow Card.
What’s your opinion Good idea or cop out?
