Oil or spices/herbs first

Hi Guy and girls,  Just watched a cooking show in Aus, yes we do have them lol.

My question is chef put a nice amount of salt and pepper all over  a roast then, poured oil all over it washing most of the salt/pepper off.  Am I missing something or is this counter productive?

Maybe I am doing it wrong but I put oil on first then salt/ pepper.  If I use herbs I mix those in the oil beforehand.

Cheers Pete
