Probably not the best, bodies will hurt, I'm sure they ice their legs up.

I am disgusted. 3 DIRECT GOALS FROM FREES IN THE LAST QTR. Holding the ball against Saad. I mean what the f=== is going on. I don't understand. Holding the ball after you clearly KICK IT AWAY.

iT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU CRY.

The saad one really summed it up in the end while there was no holding the ball against butler in the square end of story.

A minute later Butler dropped on the ball and did exactly what Steven got pinged for but just a ball up. If that decision gets paid correctly different ball game

Watters ought to risk the fine and give it to them. An incompetent display.

We lost the game due to skill errors and letting the ball get out the back on the kick out - that said the umpires were a disgrace and got WC back in the game. They wear green have no friends and should crawl under a rock and disappear

How do the umpires sleep? Isn'nt it obvious that they have been spooning a WCE forward in a queen size bed every night this week?

We lost the game because we couldnt kick goals from set shots - missed at least 6 or 7

Please don't say that umpires don't cost teams games. It was there for all to see in the last quarter.

This thread will be filled with know it alls during the week suggesting this or that would have made the difference. The obvious few will also suggest that decisions made in the last qtr had no impact on the result of the game.

The last qtr was a disgrace. I don't dare even mention anything earlier. Yes we could have closed it out. It shouldn't have mattered. But it did. Yet again.
