I would say that probably the higher percentage of red cards
issued are the new laws protecting players welfare. Some quite
harsh but then Zero tolerance has a way of focusing the minds.
Maybe the new thoughts on red cards might be interesting.

True but we didn't have that trouble for six seasons. Or was it
seven?

Fair enough. I think the review mentioned another four
incidents- certainly less than 10. How many matches did Saracens
field a stronger squad than they should have over the 8-10 years
they were cheating? 200? 250?

Our ‘misdemeanour’ hurt us not other teams. So apart from all
the seasons the other 11 teams were victims to some degree or
another.

Oh yes, there's no comparison. Saracens' cheating blows
everything else out of the water by a huge distance. They
destroyed the competition for several years.

this year.

So, even though we don't exactly occupy the high ground, we
should keep sniping away?
Until when, do you suggest?

Well you are still mentioning about the blood capsule incident
over a decade after it happened so say about another decade? If
you don't want to read rugby fans talking about the biggest
scandal in rugby in recent history, maybe it's best not to go on
a rugby forum?

I'd go for until the Cheats get the trophies they won by
cheating removed from the record. So no time soon.
