Spitting should be more than 3 games!! Thoughts!!!
Very difficult for the referee to see everything, but did he miss two dismiss-able offences before the spitting thing? I agree, 3 games is woefully inadequate. But, the game is run by sponsors these days
I never get this argument
How can spitting (disgusting but never killed anyone) be more games than punching/headbutting someone (which could kill someone).

Agree.Spitting can spread diseases, and it is abhorrent.
I would be much more upset at someone spitting at me than I would if someone took a swing at me.
Zara touched on it but spitting on someone can spread disease.I never get this argument

I'd rather be punched in the faceOne documented case of a disease being spread by spitting, as opposed to the HUNDREDS of cases of life changing injuries from a punch you can google...

Being spat on isn't nice, but if you would rather be punched in the face I'd suggest you've not been punched in the face by anyone since you became an adult.
It f**king hurts.... for DAYS

Touched on a few good points there. "As an adult" I have come to realise my tollorance to physical hurt is far more but my tollorance to emotional hurt has dropped. I'm not the type who gets into fights but I have been punched. It was painful for a few days but the physical pain was gone after a few days. However I was angry about it for weeks after. I couldn't take it emotionally that someone could do that to me. I was also racially abused. It took me months to get over that one. Never been spat on so I can't tell you what the experience is like but I imagine it's worse than a punch but not as bad as racial abuse.One documented case of a disease being spread by spitting, as opposed to the HUNDREDS of cases of life changing injuries from a punch you can google...
