Agree that was a shocker, and the ump could clearly see Callinan was holding the ball under the Norwood player.
Question regarding the celebrations at HHO, why dont they hold them on the Oval?
in case it's wet.
Also holding the after party in the front members car park is easier to get people out at close time.
