That second one was holding the ball in my eyes. The commentators suggested it should be holding the ball, or an in the back free kick to GWS!

Yup Was definite Htb.

but we were way off the pace regardless

The biggest questionable call for me was fisher blocking, because it happened in most of our fwd 50 entries and it never gets called.

Rooey has been double & triple teamed for years, and gets not much love from the umps.
Drew Petrie, Cuz Reiwoldt, Kennedy of the Eagles...they get looked after.
Defenders are careful with those guys as they get pinged.
When they grope Rooey early in a game and get away with it, they just keep doing it.
Rooey goes off at the maggots, they just ignore him and think he's staging.

What happened to the deliberate out of bounds rule this round? There were at least 3 clear instances this game, none called.

The complete inconsistency from round to round, sometimes even quarter to quarter, is why fans get so irate with the officiating. Well that and that it doesn't matter whether have a team that's dominating or cellar dweller, we never seem to get the rub of the green when it comes to the officiating.
