When dealing with a situation where more than one card is required in what order do you issue them and why?
Can't say I've ever really thought about this and have done all 3 of the above.
I kind of like chronologically as it makes it easier for the simple minds of coaches/spectators to process what is happening.
I also think that issuing the reds first or last can be justified in different situations.
If a player reacts to a reckless challenge with VC often I will issue the caution first to defuse the "what about him ref?!!??" factor.
Obviously sometimes the red MUST come out first.
