Umpires were pathetic!! What was the Milne free kick for?
The last few minutes when milne got penalized really just about made me explode in a rage that would have made Hoddle Street look tame!!
Those fken umpires gave away some ridiculous free kicks!! Ablett 50 was a joke and another player who contested a mark yet gave away a 50 was bloody pathetic!
I may have had rose coloured glasses on but the free kick count looked pretty one sided!!
and in saying that ...14-0 baby!!
How does that feel geelong??

i thought we got a few critical decisions in our favour, and few critical ones in theirs.
by and large it was an outstanding game with outstanding skills.
Its hard to fault anyone.
umpires again by and large let the game run free.

Yeah the Lenny one was super bad - right on the boundary line maybe over standing up whilst being tackled by 3 geelong players with absolutely no chance to get rid of the ball whatsoever and ....... he gets pinged
10+ posts and still no one can say why Milney was done in the last ???

The Devil makes work for idle hands!!!
no idea what the 50 was in the first quarter
the milne one was crap
the cats can spin 360 degrees and not get pinged, we grab the ball and it's holding the ball.
Geelong forwards can jump early, take out the defender and it's play on. Riewoldt is pushed in the back and it's play on. You barely touch some players and it's a free.....
It matters because one day it will cost us and I'm sick to death seeing my players working their arseoff just for the pricks in yellow to take it off them. It was crap and obvious!

That Milne "play- on" free kick was ridiculous as he was about to kick the ball into our F50 and didn't take an overly long time following the call to play on.
There were also 2 free kick goals to the Cats in the 1st quarter that were too technical .
One was a 50 metre penalty to Ablett when CJ sensed and duly reacted to Ablett moving off his mark.
A big price to pay .. for what wasn't even a small crime at worst.
The other was to Varcoe I think when Dawson breezed past him and made the slightest incidental contact - it wasn't late, varcoe just kicked the ball I thought and no real contact was made.
2 very technical goals that kept the Cats on the scoreboard - they were the only 2 goals in fact kicked by them to quarter time.

Umpire claimed Milne dragged his Geelong opponent down as he went down!

Dont see anyone complaining about the "advantage" Geelong got when it was 13.7 apiece inside their attackling 50 when there was absolutely no advantage to them?
We cleared it and ran it up for the Gardiner goal.
Look at the game without being too one eyed.

Just saw it again on the replay, no point trying to understand it as you will go crazy trying to work it out, it was just a real shocker of a decision

Re: Umpires were pathetic!! What was the Milne free kick for
Yep looked wrong to me. I think the umpire thought he brought him down but it didnt really look like it. Made no difference though.STILLWAITING wrote:RodKeoghsLoveChild wrote:The last few minutes when milne got penalized really just about made me explode in a rage that would have made Hoddle Street look tame!!
