Next year, Umpires
There's weird news on Twitter...
4 umps next yr?
Is that just preseason, or is it normal season?

Re: Next year, Umpires
I wonder what the criteria is for recruiting new umpires?
#1 - must be prepared to blatantly cheat against St Kilda as sanctioned by the AFL
#2 - must be able to follow direction and training by Nick Foot and the girl umpire and all of the other umpires who hate the Saints
#3 - must be supportive of Ben Long now he is no longer a Saints player

Re: Next year, Umpires
The great Frankie Vergona. He was a brilliant umpire - if you were Fred Cook. He loved paying frees to Freddie in the goal square in front of the Burrough faithful.kosifantutti wrote: โFri 04 Nov 2022 12:25pmGlenn James

Re: Next year, Umpires
You were very quiet when Curly tipped us off to the Ratten sacking.
Please change your avatar (my second request to you re this)
I felt it was completely disrespectful when you used Richo's photo and it's no less disrespectful with Ratt's photo.
It's one thing to call yourself 'The Dud' but it's another thing altogether to use somebody's other than your own photo attached to that nic.

Re: Next year, Umpires
Tipped us off?? He posted something 'might' happen less than an hour before my mum texted me the same thing. I don't think Barrett or McClure are looking over their shoulder...Mr Magic wrote: โFri 04 Nov 2022 2:19pmYou were very quiet when Curly tipped us off to the Ratten sacking.

Plus the bloke legitimately thinks the tribunal looks at the draw before handing out suspensions to make sure the players return to play against us... it'll take a lot of "scoops" to overcome that level of embarrassment!
Disrespectful?? People inside and outside of football get called all sorts of things on here. I noticed you don't have a problem undermining a persons professional integrity by calling them a 'cheat'...
Is calling someone a hypocrite also disrespectful?

Re: Next year, Umpires
You have a go at me for saying Ratten is/was a dud as a senior coach, didn't say anything to Curly though about calling an umpire a cheat, in fact you jumped to his defense.

Who do you suggest I change the pic to? When a new 'dud' emerges I will happily change it, not much going on at the moment though.

I've got no issue with you calling anybody a Dud - I've got an issue of you using a photograph of Richo or Ratten attached to your nick.
Ratten is no longer at our Club - yet you feel it's appropriate to continue to use his photo.

Is this thread telling us if all the new appointments fail to make a difference then we are up Dawson's Creek ?
The list changes for 2025 have begun, always an interesting time for an avid supporter.
