So, yeah, that's always a challenge.

But I feel like we're watching it really closely and we're trying to identify those players that do stage, excessively exaggerate and charge them appropriately.

Look, it's... Yes, I think so.

I think there were some really positive signs in terms of subtle changes to the guidelines at the start of this year, whereby if a player...

is found guilty of carelessly contacting an umpire on four occasions, it's an automatic weak suspension.

You'll recall last year there was a player that went to the tribunal but was fined.

It's much more definitive now in terms from a playing perspective.

So if a player is found guilty of carelessly contacting an umpire

four occasions, the next time will be a week's suspension.

And that's automatic.

It's not a tribunal hearing.

It's automatic.

So I think we've been really focused on it.

And at the heart of this, Gerard, is the safety of the umpires.

Like, you know, players...

And teams appear to be using the umpire as, use them to be able to block and get away and escape from perhaps a tagger.

So we've just got to be very, very vigilant in terms of ensuring that the umpires are protected at all times.

No, I don't.

Because I look at each incident and determine it.

So I think there might be a couple of players that have been found guilty twice.
