First off, the Saints killed us in the last qtr, they were way to good. In addition we had way too many unforced errors.
However, the umpiring again seems to go against the Roos. Rocca and Archer could not get a free even if they paid $20k between them. G-Tram constantly wresteled way off the ball with no frees, yet Archer touches him.. FREE.
Rocca was stiff on two frees and then there were stacks around the ground.
Examples:
1. Wells held off the ball, dropped after kicks.... no free
2. Holding the ball. That rule still seems to be in play but not for us
3. And what was with the Roos players being called to play on on several occasions yet not once for the saints when they deviated of the mark
The umpiring probably cost us at least 3 goals. Altough that would not have won us the game it changes the whole momentum against us.
Anyway, thats my bitch, it happens constantly to us and I suppose we have to learn to live with it..
