hard tell from the replay but Semedo's push seemed marginal contact, still at that pace coming through more often than not it will be given. I say get rid of this interpretation last man thing, if its a clear cyncical professional foul a player should walk wherever on the pitch, if its a tussle with both players genuinely trying to get the ball or marginal then it should be a yellow IMHO. Hudsons yellow looked a bit odd too, replay seemed to show little contact, perhaps im biased.
There is no "last man" rule. The rule is more or less as you describe it Razil. It's the pish poor commentators and analysts (and officails) that we have in this country hat have lead to most people not knowing the rules of the game.

I've only seen it on TV a couple of times, wasn't at the game, but did he really need to dive in like he did? Wasn't as if Bothroyd was about to shoot on the edge of our box.
Hudson went straight through Bothroyd Razil. It was a definite yellow. The first booking was harsh though. But then if you're the captain and you've just been booked, the last thing you do is clean a bloke out when he got his back to you on the half way line. Silly.
