The result was close, so did the umps have any sort of influence on the result ?
Wouldn't have thought so.
North's pressure was certainly far better than ours and it proved that it wasn't just West having a bad day the week before. I can see North going far this year based on last Sunday's game
North's pressure was good, but I thought we more than matched them there.
Where the game was won IMO was North's execution was better, and they more often had running support than we did. Sturt at times just made the wrong decision with disposal, or executed it poorly, whereas I thought North's turnovers were more often forced than otherwise.
I still haven't seen a replay so I might have it wrong, but I reckon it is more important to have a close look at a loss than gloat over a win, so very happy to hear your thoughts ORDB.
I'm gonna sit back, crack the top off a Pale Ale, and watch the Double Blues prevail
