I kept asking myself whether it wasn't a subconscious thing because she was female.
I think that's part of it.
She's clearly identifiable.
If an individual male umpire has a shocker, well they all look the same (except the Leprechaun) so you don't tend to notice it.
Bust seriously that was a very poor performance.
The thing was a couple of her decisions actually helped us, half tackles on North players which were called holding the ball very quickly.
One other thing while I think of it.
When O'Brien get's the ball these days rather than worrying I'm pretty confident he'll hit the target, or do something constructive, which is a dramatic shift from previous years.
