Thanks Einstein, but we have eyes...what do you call Hodge having his head ripped off with minutes to go, in front of goals, 4 points down? Most people call it a free.sRaf wrote:Umpires aren't cheats and anyone who thinks so is delusional.
Whenever there is a loss, it's always blamed on the umpires, but not the 22 players on the field.
Umpiring decisions might affect the game, but the only thing which determined the result tonight were the 44 players on the field.

Short memory there mate, 2009 GF ring a bell, when a goal is PAID when it hit the bloody post..... We were 5 points down when the siren went, so yes the umpires can change how a game is played out.sRaf wrote:Umpires aren't cheats and anyone who thinks so is delusional.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
yeah. i could live with the holding the ball rule (cos that is never going to satisfy everyone), and they need to do something with the adv rule, but the shepherding on the goal line where the same action wouldn't be tolerated anywhere else is the one i hate the mostbigred wrote:That shepherded goal was a bit much.

yep when it should have been our kick out...... Umpiring decisions can change a course of a game, tonights game is no different.. If Hodge had been paid that free kick it could have been a different result.. but that's footy I guess.......tony74 wrote:And they kicked one straight from the bounce afterDal_Santos_Gal wrote:Short memory there mate, 2009 GF ring a bell, when a goal is PAID when it hit the bloody post.....

nice last sentence - something that might affect the game doesn't help determine the result?sRaf wrote:Umpires aren't cheats and anyone who thinks so is delusional.

a number of horrid, game determining decisions, all one way.
the umpiring in this instance absolutely determined the game.
really feel for the hawks. they must be spewing, but publicly have to suck it up.

Hang on, it wasnt just that one! How about high on hodge just outside the goalsquare? What a fukking absolute disgrace. Anyone wankers in this thread who say umpires cant directly effect the outcome of a close match like that have absolutely no idea, go follow another sport.
Hawthorn should make as much noise as possible and rightly feel completely ripped off!!
Cue Plugger66 and his small but merry band of umpire/AFL apologist dickheads. FFS.

But they also kicked themselves out of the game, and their forward delivery was pretty appalling...sounds familiar?iwantmeseats wrote:Hang on, it wasnt just that one!

what irks me is that channel 7 was happy to show a free kick count when it was all even or close to but they wouldnt put up the free kick count at the end of the game because in the last quarter the free kicks fell all one way.
There is no doubt Hawthorn were robbed and anyone who cant see that has blinkers on .
I dont care for either side but free kicks or lack of determined the result.
