    Could be why the surface at Docklands is so bad...

        Closest they'll get to any silverware this year you'd think.

            Please give the umpires my fondlest regards.

            Goodesy knows I love him.
            Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
            Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

                        Haha, but the cameras missed the toss. We only saw a glimpse of it all.

                            Maybe a message was sent anyway - does anyone know how many frees there were for htb? Very few I thought. And the game was the better for it.

                                I thought the game was very well umpired.

                                    Pity they never swapped our seniors with the reserves!!

                                        Yep, the umpiring was actually very, very good. A couple of times I thought, "oh god, he shouldn't be, but he's about to be pinged" before the umpire blew the whistle and crossed his arms for a ball up. I was pleasantly suprised. From memory there was only a ROK HTB decision which I had a problem with (after a mark not being called for not being long enough, usually they give the benefit of the doubt to a player tackled in that situation).
