it's a yellow card that the ref's mum put in the wash with some stain remover!

I'm not a fan of the white card. Can't see what it really adds to the game!

If someones done something wrong to deserve a card it should be yellow!

Du Plessis with an open hand punch shouldve been rested for ten!

the white card was for the inital slap from du plessis but as it led to pretty much an all in brawl, it will apply to the whole fracas...good call from glen jackson as it means the citing officer can look at all players involved and apply a ban to anyone throwing punches

the white card is one of the best improvements in the game,and it restores integrity in the contest,It probably wont be accepted in though Northern hemisphere though.

Yeah, because up north if there was a brawl the citing official who's job is to review the game for foul play won't bother to look at that Doh

When Ferris reported the bite to Owens it was cited. How on earth was that done without the White Card? Magical

The white card is really just a way to show publicy, during a game, that someone has been suspected of foul play and either the ref has not seen it first hand, or did not get a conclusive look at it.

eg, if someone smashes a player high. is it, or is it not a high tackle? Show the white card and look at it later!

bit pointless really as the citing officer would look at things anyway!
