Sam Elliott was controversially given out in Victoria\u2019s first innings while Campbell Kellaway and Mitch Perry were left perplexed by their respective LBW decisions.<\/p>\n
Rogers does not feel the decisions cost the Vics but says the marquee match is deserving of the Test treatment.<\/p>\n
\u201cAbsolutely, I think if you\u2019re going to kind of sell this as the sixth Test match of the year, then I think that they should,\u201d Rogers said.<\/p>\n
7\/37! Victoria choke in Shield Final! | 06:27<\/p>\n
\u201cI think if you\u2019re going to have a third and fourth umpire, then I think you should. But equally, this goes both ways.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just think for the game you want it to be given the value it deserves.<\/p>\n
\u201c \u2026 I don\u2019t think (we were hard done by), I just think you just want to get the right decisions.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not going to complain about that, I think I heard (Collingwood coach) Craig McRae say one time, \u2018I want to act like a winner, not a loser\u2019 and I am not going to act like a loser.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ollie Peake was one of the five wickets to fall inside the first hour on Monday but there was wavering certainty around whether Liam Scott\u2019s front foot was behind the line. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s hard to tell,\u201d Rogers said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the stationary camera was blocked by the cover fielder and then the moving camera. If it was the other way around and overturned I would\u2019ve been furious<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not complaining about that.\u201d<\/p>\n
No-ball decision rocks Shield Final | 01:02<\/p>\n
Victorian captain Will Sutherland echoed Rogers\u2019 opinion on the addition of DRS, saying it would alleviate any uncertainty.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt would be nice if they can find the funds for it, it takes a bit of uncertainty about it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was a couple of dicey no balls in there as well, so you just make sure the right decisions are getting made.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf that can happen, that would be handy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chris Rogers says Cricket Australia should \u201cabsolutely\u201d invest in the Decision Review System for the Sheffield Shield in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":573339,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[18761,64,63,689,163550,281382,281390,281387,281389,281388,10143,740,1950,281385,281391,2105,281381,14374,164211,281383,677,281386,281392,3247,60370,170476,1124,85,64414,660,281384,124990],"class_list":["post-573338","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-alex-carey","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australia-and-new-zealand","tag-chris-rogers","tag-claim-epic","tag-contentious-umpiring-decisions","tag-controversial-calls","tag-controversial-no-ball-call","tag-cover-fielder","tag-craig-mcrae","tag-cricket","tag-cricket-news","tag-decision-review-system-for-the-sheffield-shield","tag-final-day-decisions","tag-getty-images-inc","tag-lineball-decisions","tag-marquee-match","tag-mitch-perry","tag-no-ball-decision-rocks","tag-oceania","tag-reigning-champs-snatch","tag-right-decisions","tag-robert-cianflone","tag-sam-elliott","tag-shield-final","tag-south-australia","tag-sports","tag-tyler-lewis","tag-victoria","tag-victoria-choke","tag-will-sutherland"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=573338"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573338\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/573339"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=573338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=573338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=573338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
