I find it bizarre when challenges like the studs to Garretts groin get yellows. Like, fair enough if the officials are unsighted and only give a foul or wave play on, but how can you see an infringement worthy of further punishment occurred and not realise that reckless studs in the jewels should be worthy of a straight red? Its like the ref realised that everyone in the stadium but him and the linesman saw what it was and he's just given a token card in reaction to the reaction. Was one of about 3 bizarre non decisions that went against us.
In terms of the game, I dont get to watch much rovers (down in Australia), but I thought we played a composed, even varied game. Plenty of quality through balls in the middle third troubled them greatly, and in defense we hoofed it out when needed rather than pathologically playing it out from the back. It wasn't super fluent but we were good value for the scoreline and were never going to concede against a choppy opposition and pitch. Hyam was my MoM but Dack, Garrett and Hedges weren't far behind. Garretts last gasp challenge was an outstanding bit of play, particularly when on a yellow. The kid has a pair on him, thats for sure.
