Ah, so.

And "nice" doesn't quite describe it.  Although the referees certainly
did their bit to help keep it close.  A couple of "blocking fouls" in
replay showed our player standing still in the lane so long he probably
got bored waiting to get hit, and there was a strong tendency to call
touch fouls in a unidirectional manner.

Not that I'm biased or anything...;-)
