Looking back, perhaps it would have been more just for the second caution to be for delaying the restart rather than dissent. After the initial caution for dissent, knew he wasn't going to change my mind on anything and at that point his continued dissent was doing nothing more than delaying things.

Simply issue the DFK, and run upfield? It'd be hard to dissent if you've moved away. In your opinion, could the second caution been averted by leaving the area of play after the first time?
