Umpiring?
Anyone else think it was clearly one sided?
I thought it was pretty crap to be honest.
Holding the ball x2 on Montagna?
Milne was called a trip instead of kicking in danger?
Zac's free's against him?
Milne got hit on top of the head by Harry O Brian, 3rd quarter, play on?
There was one huge throw in the middle, can't remember who.
There was a crapload of them, I recorded the game, so should be able to highlight all of them afterwards.
Oh and surely that Leigh Brown gets reported for the hit on Roo, 50m+ away from the Ball. Steven King got one last year if I recall.

it was a joke and was almost funny at one stage.
btw didn't they highlight the "standing by the man on the mark and taking them out" all week yet let this happen all night (except for one)

Don't want to get into the whole umpiring thing but I did get incensed that Harry O'Brien, as good as he was, was basically able to do what he liked against Milne (including launching himself at Milne's arm and getting paid for a trip
)
Quite often got into Milne's back without penalty.
Mood made worse when Blake got pulled up in the last quarter for what Harry had been doing all night. Ah well....

It was shocking, When Fisher went down in the 3rd qrt which was around the 17 minute mark (correct me if I am wrong) as i was listening to it on the radio so I am not sure.
The free kick count for JUST that qrt was Collingwood 11 - St Kilda 3
Now that's a free kick every what 92 odd seconds (if it was 17 minutes in)
Umpiring was shocking, but we won and that's all that counts, but Collingwood do get away with murder, its the only reason why they got the points last week again Melbourne.

I am excited to stay at St Kilda and this is a great result for the Club and all our fans. I’m proud to be part of the Saints and am pleased to be playing football with the Clubâ€

I always argue with my wife & parents... they always crap on about the umpiring being against us..... I never agree with them.... nearly always things even themselves out and very rarely do umpires directly affect the result of the game.
But tonight.... I agreed.... Qtrs 2 & 3 were deplorable...... completely screwed over in every respect..... if it wasn't for our tenacity, it could have been the final straw (on top of the injuries) for us to roll over and die tonight.

Failure cannot succeed in the face of persistence......
unfortunately tonight showed that schneider is still a marked man in the umps eyes, wont get a free unless he has no head. Shame

but was it much different to last week? the umpires just seem to be pretty indecisive at times. they are blowing the whilstle at just about any opportunity they get. anyone remember that passage of play last week when the ball went out of bounds on the wing and the umpire thought there was a free kick and then changed his mind, so he decided to bounce it?
laughable stuff.
unfortunately, three rounds in, the standard of umpiring looks to have even diminished from last year. they just need to be instructed to leave these tiggy-touch-wood decisions alone and let the bloody game flow.

Milne should have got 3 free kicks that he didn't.
One where the ump said he ducked his head , but he was already low, and got hit front on.
Another he was tackled around his neck in the 50.
And another when his hands were kicked yet somehow he got a free kick against.
I know it might sound a bit one eyed, but I think there is a little bit of a lack of respect for Milney from the umpires from time to time.

Everybody makes mistakes - and the umpires are entitled to a couple per game. As mentioned, over the course of the four quarters, they usually tend to cancel each other out, and not have an impact on the final score all too much.
But this was an absolutely deplorable effort. Collingwood got a number of rubbish frees (several of them inside F50), and the amount of frees missed to Saints players (many of which have already been pointed out) is a disgrace. Sharpen up, Gieschen, Humphrey-Smith & Co.
The bias tonight was disgraceful.
*Cue plugger66 saying they were terrific*

It was Vozzo continually paying the frees to Collingwood and ignoring any to the Saints. It was blantanly obvious.Dal_Santos_Gal wrote:It was shocking, When Fisher went down in the 3rd qrt which was around the 17 minute mark (correct me if I am wrong) as i was listening to it on the radio so I am not sure.
