Franjic also made a point of being very physical in their matchup in the elimination final (or whatever it called) a few weeks ago. I think most of the tackles were clean, but particularly in the first hour of the game, just about every time Arzani came down the wing, Franjic was sliding in hard and fast. I don't necessarily have a problem with blokes taking that approach - but it needs to be a risk, the downside being if you get it wrong you get carded.

The other thing I think refs need to work on policing is cynical fouls - I see so often in games, random fouls in the last half hour of a game will receive a yellow when really there was nothing in it. On the other hand, blatant shirt pulling and deliberate professional fouls in the first half go uncarded. Players will do what you allow them to get away with. You're not "ruining the game" by enforcing the rules, you're setting the standard.
