There is no set guideline on what may or may not be a technical offence worthy of a yellow card, through repeat offending, either by an individual or a team, and whether the action was cynical or not are often used by referees to gauge whether a yellow card is required.<\/p>\n

For dangerous play, the criteria are clearer, with increased severity of an offence upping the sanction to a red card.<\/p>\n

If a penalty try is awarded, a yellow card must be shown to the conceding team if the player who committed the offence can be identified.<\/p>\n

For this year\u2019s Rugby World Cup, the disciplinary process has been revamped.<\/p>\n

Incidents of foul play that clearly meet the yellow card threshold are now placed on review by the on-field referee, who shows the player who committed the offence a yellow card.<\/p>\n

The foul play review official (FRPO), based in a bunker in Paris during the tournament, then has eight minutes to decide whether the incident merits an upgrade to red.<\/p>\n

If yes, the player is sent off and can take no further part in the game. If no, the player returns after serving their ten minutes off the pitch.<\/p>\n

If a player is shown two yellow cards, regardless of what they were for, during the same game, they are automatically sent off.<\/p>\n

An individual that receives three yellow cards during the course of a single season or tournament will appear in front of a disciplinary committee.<\/p>\n
