    It's probably one thing that rugby has over football. They have a panel that looks at this kind of skullduggery. And dish out hash bans. Diving and faining injury, waving imaginary cards etc, has become embarrassing. Football needs a panel that looks at this sort of thing. Dish out a few severe bans, and it will soon stop

    It's starting to creep into international rugby now. Just watch Rhys Webb as an example.

    Its impossible to prove and is one of those subjects where opinions can greatly differ. Its not like a ball crossing the goaline where technology can prove 100% one way or another.

    If anyone watched the Madrid game last night, Aspas got given a 2nd yellow for diving and got sent off, when the replay clearly showed Ramos had caught him. Yes Aspas exagerated the fall but hed clearly been caught.

    Aspas had been in the refs year all night, got his first yellow for appealing another stonewall handball that didnt get given and I think the ref just wanted him off the pitch.

    Also, I dont believe in retrospective bans for cases that go unpunished in a game (ie Rashford) as only ones to benefit from that are the future teams played and not the team that got "cheated".

    Lets say Swansea lost that game, then United were playing a relegation rival in the next game, and Rashford was banned for that game. Where is the fairness in that?
