How so? Ump told GWS to give the ball to Oscar and didn't. 50m penalty. GWS tackled after receiving a handball from a player taking advantage. Free kick. You and Hodgey mightn't like it, but them's the rules.
No, thats the interpretation of the rules. Don't get me wrong, it had to be 50. They pay that every time, and if they didn't for us, I'd be pissed. But it shouldn't be the interpretation.

He wasn't time wasting. He tried to give the ball back quickly, as he's required to do. Dunkley called for it, received it and immediately asked for 50m. To me, that's staging.

It was the right result for consistency, and we will all happily take it... but we also know what it feels like on the other end of that call. The player calling for the ball, knowing it isn't theirs, is a dick.
