Holding the ball etc

Post: # 797970Post Pazza »

Far from me to gloat, but, the umpires in the game had a shocker.

The holding the ball decisions for the most part were there...for the dons, I'd like to praise young "Irish" in Quinn for his efforts in that department.

The stats might say we got more free kicks than you might have, but, for a while it seemed we couldn't get one at all - or had to work twice as hard to get the frees.

I particulaly thought the one where Milne was tackled on the ground was particularly THERE.
Milne clearly failed to get the ball out because the ball was lying on the ground behind his back.
In clear view of myself and Stefan Grun who paid the free.

That one was a SHOCKER. They were holding-the-ball happy at that point.
