LW drilled into them early on not to speak to the ref, at the beginning of the season teams were collecting cards like it was their birthday for dissent and time-wasting. It has calmed down a bit now thankfully but the ref on Sat was one of those who has never made a mistake in his entire career and to suggest otherwise was asking for trouble. I think Crewe got 2 yellows for saying something.

The key is to channel the sense of injustice into your gameplay, but I don't see much evidence of that either. LW was all about control, control, control, but sometimes letting it rip for a bit can be useful.
