Re: Yellow card / Red card usage at 2004 IRI
It worked very well, not perfectly, but no system can even come close to perfect. My problems with it have been mentioned over the last couple pages. But all in all, its probably the most effective system used thus far.
And dont have a penalty for aggrressive play. Penalties for spearing, hooking, entanglment, ect. are fine, but not a subjective call such as aggressive play. FIRST has no problem with aggressive, non-damaging play anyway. They encourage defense, and in order to mount an effective d, you need to be at least somewhat aggressive. Body-on-Body contact is perfectly fine in 9 out of 10 cases, and in many cases so is arm to arm, or arm to body, as long as nothing become entangles, hooked, or things like that. Look at, for instance, how 190 used their arm to play def. They used it more or less like a wall to stop the opponent from getting on the bar. But when team C, or a few other team used there arm to spear or knock over other teams, its becomes a penalty. And at IRI the judges called that well.
