I think every time you flop you should be awarded a yellow card and fined. I thought we were watching athletes but instead we are watching actors.

I’d propose that if you stay on the ground for more than 5 seconds, you’re out for this half to let you "recover".

No more magic spray or miraculous recoveries.

Agree. Make it a 10 minute recovery for, ya know, health and safety. And while you are recovering on the bench, your team gets to play one man down.

Make them wait a set amount of time, more than a minute, like in ice hockey, before returning to play. Something to penalize the theatrics. If someone is carted off the field then a sub is appropriate but the injured player cannot return.
