An interesting game today as the home team from last week were the away team.
Pleasantries were exchanged before the game and off the field but after 2 cautions and a dismissal for the away team, the referee was accused of playing up to the assessor (me). Nothing could be farther from the truth. While in last week's game, they had been on the receiving end of a fairly physical appoach by their opponents, this week, they snapped and harried at most early challenges.
The home side reacted in kind and the result was a game littered with poor challenges and appropriate disciplinary action. In the end the team in black won, with 6 cautions and 1 dismissal and for the first time this season it took me until 7:30 to get the heat back into my toes.
