This will just result in more people crying about subjective fouls - why did that tackle get an orange card but this tackle didn't?.
Adding even more subjectivity into the game for fans to cry about isn't the answer.
A sin bin could be great, but not with the rules written as they currently are.
Was my thoughts too. I think a sin bin would be very beneficial, although I think it should be a rule for the yellow cards.
For example, when you get a yellow card, you are sent to the sin bin for 10 mins, get another one, then you get a red card as normal. Obviously how we look at yellow cards may need to change, do they need to be slightly harder to get? Kept the same? Can VAR spot a yellow card tackle and retroactively sin bin a player?
Having a rule like this and getting the ref's mic'd up during games would go a long way in helping in my opinion.
