    At Last

    Saints player wins possession in Sydney F50, immediately tackled. 50,000 voices yell BAAALLL. And the maggot responds. NOG kicks the goal. At last the Sydney crowd's collective voices help us win a borderline (and very important) free. From where we sat, it looked like toss up between HTB and a ball up. Crowd noise does help. Let's see more of it.

    I thought it was either a ball up or free to Dal Santo.

      I thought we had a very good run from the umpires tonight. A number of red hot HTB decisions went our way. Schmidt's mark should have been play on.

        My point was - the crowd won us that free, like we see so many times at Footy Park or Subi.

          I understood - hence why I was commenting that it didn't look like a free, thus it was a pretty big outcome.

              It was never a free to Dal Santo. Great hit by Hall. However, not a HTB either.

                It looked like he threw it over the fence after he was frustrated he dropped it. Very impetuous and not for the first time this season.

                  Had some calls go the way of Sydney, some calls go the way of the Saints (esp Riewoldt the protected species)
                  Still can't figure out how G-String didn't get pinned for HTB when running into a open goal and tackled by C Bolt.

                    They felt sorry for him because he couldn't touch it.

                      Was thinking Sydney had used up there quota of frees for the game.

                        Superb tackle, they must've been in awe of Craig.
                        FWIW, umpiring was dodgy tonight, especially the hot period of HTB. Where has prior opportunity gone?
