WFR
stands for World Fantasy Rugby and now we have the WFR Judiciary.
As
of Round 17 in WFR IX the WFR has incorporated RED
and YELLOW
cards into the WFR Sim.
So
now we need the formation of the WFR JUDICIARY :
So
Here are the Guidelines of the WFR Judiciary and all Decisions made are
entirely upto the Judiciary ,
The
following are the Guidelines Set Down.
This
is HOW the Sequnce of events are played out prior to a Judiciary Ruling
Judiciary
Sequence of Events
1.
Match played.
2.
WFR puts out list of charged players to face judiciary.
(
Ideally as soon as possible after games published.)
3.
Club has 24hrs (until midnight Monday NZ time) to provide evidence defending
their player/players against any charges.
Send
defence evidence to: WFR_Judiciary@yahoogroups.com
Doing
this also produces Financial Reward to your club through the News Stories
Bonus that all WFR Clubs can earn by
being
active on the WFR Newsgroup sending in News Stories on your WFR Club.
Each
judiciary member receives the defence information for review
via
WFR Newsgroup wfr99@yahoogroups.com
The
substance of your clubs defence can have a significant effect on the judiciaries
final verdict. It could mean the
difference
between your player receiving a hefty suspension to having a charge downgraded
or even possible exoneration.
If
no response at all is received from your club within this
24 hr period your player will face the pending charge as guilty
of
the offence without remorse or explanation.
4.
A club may enter a GUILTY PLEA within the 24 hour deadline.
It
means the club concedes that their player has committed the offence he
is charged with.
The
positive bonus of entering a guilty plea is it may draw leniency from judiciary
members at vote time
depending
on the charge, whereas no response or plea at all before Judiciary Vote
, from a club will result in judiciary
members
voting on the player with no contemplation of leniency regarding the charge
in mind.
5.
All Judiciary decisions are handed down to all WFR members at 12 midnight
Tuesday NZ time.
Judiciary
verdict is Absolutely Final.
E-mails
to WFR headquarters or to the judiciary contesting any decisions will most
likely incur cash fines to your club
and
may also result in the players suspension being increased.
6.
Exactly the same rules apply for representative fixtures except
suspensions do not carry over into club matches.
Example:
If a player is suspended in an International for 3 games he can still compete
for his club side, but must
miss
the next 3 International matches his country competes in.
A
player suspended in club matches is still available to represent his nation.
8.
Same rules apply for midweek matches. (Mostly International fixtures)
Example: If a match is played on Wednesday then judiciary defence
is required by midnight Thursday.
Judiciary
decision handed down midnight Friday NZ time.
Possible
Penalties :

Third

1.
Player is suspended immediately
2.
A formal hearing must be held within 48 hours of the incident.
3.
Unless overwhelming evidence is presented that would mitigate the situation
a minimum suspension of 10 games assessed the guilty party.
Basically
The way I see it is if a player in the opposing team is Injured The suspensions
may follow this example of a table
Player
Injured see's health at ## the Red Carded Player may receive the following
suspension:
Health
Points = Suspension Length
So
We have 3 Levels

00-10

|
10
game suspension |
|
11-20
=
|
9 game suspension |
|
21-30
=
|
8 game Suspension |
|
31-40
=
|
7 game Suspension |
|
41-50
=
|
6 game Suspension |
|
51-60
=
|
4-5 game suspension |
|
61-70
=
|
2-3-4 game suspension |
|
71-80
=
|
0-1-2-3
game suspension |
|
81-90
=
|
0-1-2 game suspension |
|
91-100
