I see our high ranking game has been awarded the top umpires for this big clash.

Re: The umpiring God's are not smiling on us either.
Eleni is a riot.
She has a lot of fun umpiring, it's like Wheel of Fortune for her
Just have a guess, El, go on
And another ump overrules. She just giggles

LOL - they have to umpire somewhere!

Have some respect, I'm pretty sure Eleni was awarded an MBE or OBE for outstanding service to umpiring St Kilda games

Well this thread aged well 
I reckon we nearly got 10 forward 50 frees alone, if only we could kick straight!

Re: The umpiring God's are not smiling on us either.
To be fair, the umpires were virtually invisible, as should be.
The void of skills was by players on both teams, and certainly not the umpires.

Re: The umpiring God's are not smiling on us either.
We got ripped off plenty. Our forwards were constantly mugged and once adgain the tackling of our players without the ball was through the roof. Not to mention the constant dropping of the ball by them. But by far the worst call was by her and it was against Ryder for an indiscriminate kick when it was Gears on the ground. All terrible umps, but Eleni has to be dropped. Every game I have seen her umpire in she has been crap.

For a change, I thought it was a fair display by the umpires without either side being disadvantaged.
A few decisions I disagreed with but that will always be the case.
But nice that the umpires didn't influence the result.

Re: The umpiring God's are not smiling on us either.
Eleni had one centre bounce that needs a comment- it went too far one way and she let it go, scared to try again maybe?
