Re: Poor calling by refs Newton Subdivision SF2 M2
I would just like to highlight another problem that has not been mentioned in the video. Time stamps refer to video linked above.
At 0:40 seconds (117 left in the match) 4678 bumps the sally port on the way back through it and knocks the panel out of place. For the remainder of the match the 67 human player has to be careful when bowling because the panel partially blocks the secret passage. The location of all balls passing through the secret passage for the entire match were influenced by that panel blocking the passage. At 1:51 a boulder is rolled and hits the divider when it would otherwise not of. This ball rolls back into the secret passage. The next ball bowled hits that ball and goes right into the courtyard. Code Orange scores both balls. The fact that it was not pulled off completely until the end by 1477 is not the only impact it had on the match.
I was not able to listen to what our driver said to the head ref or the explanation that followed. Either way I am proud of how she, and the rest of our team, handled the situation. We had a great season and a fun time at champs.
