Crucial umpiring call against us
A 50 meter call drags us back when we were running for an open goal.
Not the umpire's fault. Split second decision. But, on the whole, the rub of the green went against us tonight.
Not that the media will write it up that way.
Good luck to the Tigers. They're quite a good team. The win wasn't undeserved, but we could so easily have snatched it.

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
Tigers deserved to win however a good effort from our boys.
Beaten but not disgraced. Undermanned in the ruck and down back, behind all night, 3 6 day breakes in a row and we still manage to break even with the Tigers in the 4th qtr.
7 straight points cruelled us in the third quarter but nobody can say we are a spent force.
Really enjoyed the game and was proud of our fight.
5-5 is not disasterous and to only get beaten by 8 points was a pretty fair effort.

Unfortunately just not good enough on the night - reality was Richmond were the better side, led every change and we countered (and did well all night) to doso.
Even when we hit the front - the way centre clearances were going you felt they were going to score again..
5-5...bout where we are in reality, mid table.

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
I disagree, I thought we were good enough. We were a little unlucky. As it turned out, the two teams were pretty evenly matched.
Blake, our #1 ruckman, was also the only guy who could keep Jack R quiet. If one of Fisher, Stanley, or McEvoy had been fit, we'd have been ok.
Has Blake got a heart or what!!!

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
Blakey was everywhere. Back with no 8 in the third quarter and kept him quiet, back in the ruck to get us back in the game towards the end. Gilbert was in the ruck for a while. That's what I call depleted.
Fisher and McEvoy big outs for our structure.

that's complete crap. we ended up with far more important frees than they did. watch the replay and try to open both eyes - we got all the luck from the umpires.meher baba wrote:Not the umpire's fault. Split second decision. But, on the whole, the rub of the green went against us tonight.

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
Umpiring was hideous.... Really.
But it made NO difference, they won the footy, therefore the game
3 clear mistakes that were ultimately costly, and have changed the holding the ball rule again. Newspaper umpiring.
And they have now turned on St. Nick

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
Even when they gave us the 50m penalties they couldn't get it right.
Milera marks about 7 metres forward of the back edge of the square and they pay 50 and set the mark about 5 metres short of the front edge of the square.

Agree with this, Tigers having dream run with injuries and form, take Jack or Maric out of the game and can you see Vickery kicking a bag??! Tigers field kicking was a disgrace at times, our kicking for goal let us down once again. But I dont think there was much in it tonight, based on tonight, Richmond are assured of 9th spot once again!

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
I think the rules state that you can't play on with the advantage rule once given a 50m penalty.

Great summation. 3 x 6 day breaks, undermanned yet were in it up to the end. Had more scoring shots and if they had taken a few opportunities the result could have been different. Cant question their heart. Get a few back and we can challenge anyone

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
our kicking for goal was the major reason for our loss tonight and has cost us dearly in the past....our tackling was there but was soft, must tackle the arms.
Apart from some unusual umpiring and no rucks we did ok. When we meet again and kick straight with a full side we will win.
Anyone noticed how many times Roo was dragged out marking contests near goal? The Umps saw it once.

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
Yeah, that was laughable. Problem is, they love getting in the game don't they? Bit like the runner free-kick. Umps chance to wave the rule book. Sensible umpiring would be, poor kick, you take the consequences.BigMart wrote:Thought the montagna marking contest was hilarious..... Joey goes how was that a mark?.....

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh No!!!!!! I have a bad feeling... just had a flashback of Schneids giving it to the umpie and mocking him with a bit of applause....I suppose that means Joey is fu#ked...don't expect Joey to get any free kicks for the rest of the yearBigMart wrote:Thought the montagna marking contest was hilarious.....

Re: Crucial umpiring call against us
In the first quarter on our half foward flank Milne clearly gets tripped - no free, Richmond run the ball down and score a goal. By the way does retarted mean you've been give additional tarts??
