Do Umpires Have Protection...
When they bend us over and roger us?
Did anyone see that young reporter on Channel 7 last night imply that the umps screwed us good and those two numpties Ling and Darcy just scoffed at him? I wanna shake that guy's hand. Finally, someone in the media sticking their neck out for us.
Let's not forget, the fluorescent creeps cost us finals action last year. All we needed was one more win. They at least shafted us good and proper against Hawthorn.

Re: Do Umpires Have Protection...
You only have to look at the free kick stats for WC in Perth over the past decade to see there is a vast discrepancy in the free kick count. No other team gets a better run than WC at home...and it's by a street

AFL give out TV rights
Do you think they don't have a say on how the game is reported? They make the rules.... the coaches can't even speak about them.

Re: Do Umpires Have Protection...
No, you need to grow up, Numpty Dumpty. What kind of supporter abuses the players on his own team? The worst kind. Pull your head out of your rear end. Sam Gilbert has given the club great service for over a decade. That's far, far, far more than you've ever done for the club. And to deny that the umpiresgave us the wrong end of the stick makes you look like a massive suckhole. Wake up and smell the coffee, Numpty Dumpty!iwantmeseats wrote:Sainternist. Grow up.

Re: Do Umpires Have Protection...
The Umpires were an utter disgrace last night, every soft decision went against us and I don't recall us getting a single free kick in the first half.
Then there was the critical final quarter free kicks (for goals). Was the one against Savage to Kennedy? Whatever it was never a free kick, then a few minutes later Kennedy shoves Brown square in the back but gets awarded the mark for another goal.
I'm not one to blame umpires for losses, the only time I can recall doing so in a while was the Hawthorn game last year. However it is not unreasonable to assert that the umpiring yesterday were a contributing factor to our loss.
