Under Stephanie Frappart, Toulouse picked up 2.73 cards a game, 40% above their own average in the same seasons (11 matches).

League matches since 2015/16 with the referee named (332). Cards = Toulouse's own yellows and reds. Club avg = their cards a game in the same seasons with every referee. Under 10 matches the gap is grey: too few to call. Referees aren't drawn at random - the big games go to the senior ones - so a gap here describes, it doesn't prove a bias.
