And the thing is, you could have someone like Shane Woewodin who played on Hirdy and just be as effective. He's like any other player. You take into consideration what he does on that day. So there's nothing said between you all. No, you can't go into games with pre-conceived ideas.
Some umpires do match reports before the game.
Who's playing, key players, match-ups, that sort of thing, so they're mentally prepared for it. I'm not saying other umpires do. But I don't drag up dirty laundry. There's been occasions when you've had a go at me, maybe rightly so, but I don't think any less of you. All rights reserved.
