This is a complete change in how the game is being officiated. More calls is an automatic advantage for the Oil and everyone knows it, and they're going to try to say it's fair as long as the same number is called on both teams. This is how they get the golden boy back in it.
You can tell the Oil know it too by how they've stepped up the soft falls and lobbying during the breaks.
