Here is the WWS report from last night.

I was looking through your report, and basically your healers are killing the tanks by using FoL during Stomp. 3 healers healing both tanks is more than enough if they simply make sure to be using their max rank heals instead of flashing, and don't synchronize their heals. If you're using a 3-2-1 countdown, tell one of the MT healers to start casting at 2, the other to start casting at 1, and the third to start casting at the taunt (or something similar), so all heals won't land at the same time and overheal, and the next second the tank's dead. You can also use a 3-2-1 countdown just before Stomp, at least until your healers get a hang of it and start watching timers as well.
(I also noted that your MT healers Neenja & Sathias spent some time on healing themselves - leave this to the raid/burn healers!)
Your tanks seem to be having a decent enough amount of avoidance (compared yours to me + my warrior friend @ brut); the issue could also be that your tanks aren't using their cooldowns in the best way possible. You can sort out a rotation so that one tank taunts right after the first stomp, and then both tanks should have enough cooldowns to use on every stomp afterwards, or be able to taunt after the stomps again.
