Can someone keep an eye on this clown. If he gets another St Kilda game, I'm putting together a little highlights package

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
I echo everyone's sentiments on here. The Swines were gifted 3 consecutive goals from 50 m penalties in the 3rd quarter from those bastards. That should never happen. Someone needs to make an example of that bowling ball head umpire. What a f****** jerk!

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
Some how the club needs to call out the umpires on this continued biased against our team. If we were playing finals its the type of thing that could cost us GF wins. The umpires seem to treat us with contempt and look for any opportunity they can to shaft us - there must be some background to this?

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
I just watched a replay of the third quarter and noticed another Nicholls moment - when Joey kicked that long goal, Nicholls actually called 'play on' as he ran in to take his kick.
Joey did nothing more than approach the kick with an arc - much less of an arc than the 'Buddy arc'.
And yet that piece of umpiring felt the need to call 'play on'.
I believe it is not corruption but just the 'mindset' of this guy. His decisions are based on pre-conceived notions he comes into the game with.
And I think that Umpire Schmidt has been incorrectly left out of the conversation as his decisions were equally as perplexing last night.
We are a team that relies heavily on our tackling pressure to create stoppages/turnovers and we were barely rewarded for our tackling effort last night.
Time after time Sydney players were tackled with the ball and were allowed an unexplainably long time to 'attempt to dispose of the footy' (often by just dropping it) If they didn't manage to do that then the umpires conveniently called a stoppage. They rarely called the correct decision (IMHO) which should have been a free kick against the Swans player.
Virtually no reward for our effort.
Oh and BTW, Parkers fend to McKenzie's face/head was as blatant a 'missed free' as you could find. It's so blatantly a free kick it belongs on the AFL DVD that they hand out each year to explain decisions.
Sheer incompetence on behalf of the umpires to fail to see/call it.

That non free to fisher was the worst. How could they not see that?

I thought that was wrong but understandable. They were heading towards each other pretty quickly and was difficult to tell without a replay where the contact was.ralphsmith wrote:That non free to fisher was the worst. How could they not see that?
The fend off on the other hand was telegraphed and obviously high.

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
One of my mates who has read the Report of the game in Murdoch's paper has conveyed that that Report includes that St Kilda did not receive what they should and that represents a continuation which is frustrating the side and fans.
So it is being noticed.
As with all sports in Australia, those administering the sport are attempting to re-live former "glories" (or erase failures and re-write their history which is also why those who comment on particularly AFL football in the media are so abysmal) instead of doing what they should be doing.
So they are there for ego, not results.
And that is why we get what we have to put up with.

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
I have been saying for years, that the maggots cheat, have their favourites, and their disliked players. They probably also, or at least some of them , have their family members bet on results that they set out to influence.
Human nature being what it is, also applies in umpire circles you know.
Only difference this year is that the former resident umpires champion and besty is no longer with this forum and thank god for that.

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
If you want to officially vent your anger then please email Luke Ball. He is in charge of the umps and works for the AFL. I have it on good authority that he personally replies to all emails sent to him and offers a very constructive response.
So take a breath and compose a well worded and respectful email if you like and you should get a favourable response.

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
just disgusting
couldnt watch anymore and had to walk - Swans scum around me telling all how the frees were 'fair' was too much.
This will drive plenty away from the game - give it time, soccer is already killing AFL in schools.
Just rotate the flag between Hawks, Swans, Cats and soon GWS......Brisbane, another AFL prop up, will whinge and be gifted 15 picks.

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
Apparently Mark Fine on SEN just had a melt about them about 20 minutes ago. Good to see someone in the media, and a great Saints man, tell it how it is and not tow the usual line. Good on ya Finey.

I am so over this. Someone please tell the umpires that Thomas isn't our coach now.

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
He usually is (and sometimes umpires with P66) but the mrs tells me he let rip on SEN at the, let's face it, abysmal decision making by those wankers. He was at pains to point out that it didn't affect the result as most of us on here are saying.Waltzing St Kilda wrote:Finey?

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
Listened to the game on 3AW. Throughout the broadcast numerous decisions against us or not paid to us were described by the commentary team as : unbelievable, outrageous and disgraceful. They also referred to Nicholls as incompetent.

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats
A few weeks ago, Rooey took a mark just on 50, not sure if it was against Norf, his opponent hadn't been near him (so not in the contest) and player actually ran a further 5 metres over the mark, Rooey called for 50 but was ignored. Player told to get back on mark.
Dylan Roberton marks his spot, didn't get asked to come back. 50m called straight up, as if ump was angry at our Saints and wanted to make a stand.
