Dangerous Play

*Raising a knee while someone approaches them
*Sliding directly at someone with cleats up

Who wants to add to the list?

The two most common causes in my experience if kicks above the waist and headers at or below the waist.

I have a hard time imagining giving DP for a studs up challenge. If they come up short, it's trifling and if they don't it's a DFK foul and a caution.
