Re: the umpires today - made mistakes in favour of both sides. We were on the wrong end of the stick in the 3rd Q but things swung back our way in the last - deservedly so as we were first to the ball on most occasions.
One thing I'm confused about (maybe someone here can elucidate) - why does a brilliantly executed tackle on the goal line which results in the incorrectly disposed ball spilling through for a point not result in a free kick to the tackler?
I mean, if it happens on the boundary line the free kick seems to trump an 'out of bounds' call?
Happened to us twice today.
