Did anyone else notice our terrible play-the-balls today?
We could have been pulled up plenty of times, especially when Badger was telling our players to play the ball with their feet and they'd still just stand there and roll it through without touching it. I know we weren't actually penalised, but that's more because of the overall uselessness of the referees at the moment.
Russell Packer has to be one of the worst, he makes bugger all effort to play the ball properly. Ukuma is another bad one. It's just laziness IMO, and doesn't reflect well on the whole attitude of the team if they can't get one of the basic fundamentals right.
Anyway I know it's not a big issue but I can just picture us being hammered in the weeks ahead if we don't start making a bit of effort here.
