This is needed more than anything these days. Every time play stops. So does the clock. Time wasting and faking injury would stop instantly.
I'm not sure it would, at least entirely. I think a lot of the time "faking injury" is done to disturb the rhythm and momentum of the opposition, or to simply have a rest and regroup. Also, faking injury is done to try and influence the ref's decision in punishing the opponent, although that is separate to the time wasting issue.
