Yes, that tunnelling one was fairly blatant. Should have been picked up.
Re: Rule changes ????????????????
I know we lost bt 15 goals but that doesn't alter
poor umpiring decisions. We teach children the rules
then they witness so much rubbish umpiring.
I fully understand trent cotchins anger last friday.

I don't think there was a single letter in the OP or follow up post that suggested any bias from the umpires or that their performance impacted the result.

Right with you, Megsie.
Was at the game and thought the same.
Umpires have stopped paying frees for holding the ball, in the back etc.
Why we now have 'the scrum'.
