Actually with streetbowl there is a chance to get injured after fouling as the crowd is looking for vengence and starts to throw bottles. Would be fun to have that in normal BB as well.
Agreed. I've argued for this before. It would remove the "fouling hurts me but is essentially a risk free action for you" bitter taste.

If you have a Cas result instead of an ejection, in the current rules you'd have to improve fouling. I think the fix would be to award SPP for casualties from fouls. This is because an SPP award is a beyond-the-game benefit counteracting a beyond-the-game penalty, so the Cas result wouldn't necessarily become an excuse to only foul with journeymen/mercenaries (which is what you'd see if you adopted Ref with an Axe (RWA) and balanced it with, say, a return to the automatic +1 on armor rolls; if you just brought in RWA a la carte in 5th without a balancing effort, it would kill fouling entirely except by extreme underdogs; in a 3rd- or 4th- based game, you could add it in to fix your fouling rules on its own).[/i]
