I watched a match on Saturday which got me thinking. Green penalised for offside, Gold SH takes quick tap and is immediately lifted, taken through horizontal and dropped onto his shoulder.
Ref gave YC to offending Green for dangerous tackle. This occurred around the half way line.
So, assuming the YC was the correct sanction, what should happen if this scenario occurred 5 metres from the line? (Almost certainly a penalty try based on the "beam him up" principle). But the "not ten" offence in the red zone would merit a YC in any case (I believe a penalty try now mandates a YC?).
Should the "YC dangerous tackle" + "YC for red zone not 10 professional foul" mean you would issue a Red?
