I think Mainland need to ask why it is happening and is it any worst this season and other years.
Part of the problem is the standard of refereeing, one ref lets the abuse go with others getting on top of it.
Also how many people are allowed in the dugouts - if your name is not on the team sheet then you should not be in the dugout, and the ref's can / should be controling this.
The best ref I had seen this year is the guy from Blenheim and guess what he talks to the players / coaches before things get out of hand were other appear to let it go o then try and deal with it by flashing cards.
Do not get me wrong I do not agree with any abuse to players or match officals.
