Umpires
I know all the objective reasons why we should have won regardless of them. But you just can't tell me those stupid successive not 15s weren't the turning point.
And can someone please tell
Leigh fisher that there is no one left on the footballing planet that thinks he could possibly be biased in our favour.

Re: Umpires
It can only be said the umpires had a bad day.
The game will be reviewed by them and the errors identified.
The free to Rioli for a shoulder to shoulder bump was inept umpiring. He was right there and called that !
The not 15s were also wrong. Ump knew it and looked sheepish when Roo was telling him.
He then did the opposite to even up and allowed us to take marks that weren't 15.

Re: Umpires
I always thought that any contact to the head, even accidental contact, was a free kick.
If so, can someone please explain how Geary gets knocked out by an accidental shoulder to the head and the umpire calls 'play on'?

Re: Umpires
Dont let anybody ever try to tell you that umpires never affect the result of a game
You just watched one where they did.

Maybe they thought that Geary led with the head. Or maybe they noticed that he was not wearing Brown and GoldMr Magic wrote:I always thought that any contact to the head, even accidental contact, was a free kick.

Re: Umpires
besides the 15 metre freaking shockers the rioli free kick infuriated me, he had to resort to staging what a repulsive joke. also, later on hawks have the ball in the centre through a mark, then it was called play on and we manage to get the ball back and are free on the wing and then the umpire calls it back.
man oh man.
man oh man.

They all had their money on the hawks.
Besides the AFL isnt going to let the Hawks lose a match in Tassie and they control the maggots.

Re: Umpires
Is Leigh Fisher over compensating in ruling against us due to the fact he's a former Saint?saintspremiers wrote:Just F off and I can't say what I really think
What a disgraceful - and inconsistent, the only true criticism you can have against an Ump - display it was.
But what hope. I see the makings of a great team.
