How do you ledgends see the umpiring

Post: # 2006060Post Rubyjo »

In this neutral game ..pies vs Crows.
Some of you experts would have watched it
From my POV ..the pies copped what we cop every week ..totally robbed looked like a complete cheating effort against the pies ...happy to be proven wrong.

Adelaide and WC Always tend to get the rub of the green when playing at home , pies still got 18 frees for the game which is only 2 off their average.
What pisses me off is how effing lucky are Collingwood.
Adelaide kept them in it , then run out of steam.
We play them in two weeks and if they play the same way against us you can guarantee that they'll be 15.6 at three quarter time, not 6.15 !

How do we feel about four umpires?

Personally, I feel it's too many and the cause of inconstancy.

There are numerous examples where the umpire closest to the play calls 'play on', but an umpire a hundred meters away plucks out a marginal free kick.

When umpiring, there are so many 50/50 calls and a single umpire is able to establish his own 'benchmark', but it's most likely that another umpire will have a subtly different benchmark. Compare Razor Ray and Leigh Fisher for example, Fisher is more tolerant of 'dissent' , whereas Razor is obsessed with stamping his authority.

Two umpires should be very capable of umpiring a footy match.

They're still in the wrong spots.
They need to umpire from the outside looking in, not the inside looking out.
Too many missed free kicks because they're blindsided.

Also, we need two goal umpires at each end, unless the goal umpires are instructed to use the review option to get the crypto trading company some advertising!
Many of the reviews would be resolved with a goal umpire on each post.

One's enough. I can do it from my chair at home. A live feed of every camera angle and viola - umpiro perfecto!

4 umpires mean that each week 9 umpires that weren't good enough to get a gig last year now get a game so of course it will go down hill.

Adelaide and Port were always going to get a run this week gone after Complain Cornes had a whinge on SEN about how poorly treated SA teams were
