Umpires F%$king useless

[Sobraz]

Violated.

[evertonfc]

Umpiring cost us but please don't use this as a vehicle to mask our obvious deficiencies.

[bigred]

Our disposal was terrible.

However that was one of the most one sided displays of umpiring you will ever see.

Its not just the amount of frees paid, but it was what they were paid FOR and WHERE they were paid on the ground.

I thought two of the umpires were not too bad, but the other one, the fair haired one, if he blew the whistle you just knew it would be a free to Richmond.

Number 25 the little p.rick. Killed us...

[jonesy]

Gold Coast- AFLs new favourite child,at all costs. Interesting display,hmmmmmm

Richmond- Potentially the AFL's second biggest earner this year in the football heartland...... don't let anything get in there way. Strange display


Clearly Watters needs to sharpen up on his blowjob skills and give Demetrio a good 6 month workover. The club has been royaly shafted ever since Saintsationals very own GT called them for what they were 8 years ago.

It's really not worth the effort

[Teflon]

One of the worst clearly biased displays of umpiring Ive seen.

Id simply like to know the goals from free kick stats for this and last weeks game??

Reckon Richmond got 5 0r 6 tonight and yep Joffa, couldnt believe when Armo was kicked in the head and play on called.

Something really stinks here and yep, its ruining our game for sure. The inconsistency and lack of genuine discussion under Adolf Andrews reign to even discuss it has meant they have not improved. @The Giesch@ has to go surely???

Pathetic effort tonight - make no mistake they were not the difference as the more skillful and better side won........but gee they stacked the resulgt in their favour.

But we'll say nothing...

[CURLY]

That was appalling not a free in our forward 50 yet 9 in there's. That free to Jack to win the game. was nearly as bad as Mine v Harry last year.

[CURLY]

I've heard that its 11 / 0 against goals from frees.

[8856brother]

The important frees went against us yet again. Simple as that. Does anyone have the stats for frees in the F50. Without knowing them I reckon it was about 6 zip. Did I see Arno get kicked in the head in our F50 late in the last qtr.

They got 9 we got 1 Armo.

[Scollop]

and it was in the pocket on an impossible angle so the ump wasn't gifting us anything

yes.....funny how those stats never see daylight....

deplorable.

[ShanghaiSaint]

that free to JR with Jones just ripped me up... he first pulled it in then jones just brushed his shoulder once... how is that stopping a guy lying on the ball? F^%king usless pricks... I am also wondering now if the umps go into some matches with instructions from the AFL.. if we get this crap again with GWS i am sure the AFL is sicker then essendope

[SideshowMilne]

4 goals 2 vs 0 goals 0 from frees, so reported on radio. Mollison hates us

[ShanghaiSaint]

The lenny free was also just crap didn't touch the guy he flys off like a train hit him and bang a free... where's the staging rule in play here? Dal gets smacked in the nose and Bruce Macen"Baby' calls Dal for acting.

[bergholt]

Agree on both.

I usually think poor umpiring evens out but tonight it felt like it was all one way. Plenty of mistakes against both sides but more against us.

[saintspremiers]

Umpire 25 is an oxygen theif.

[bergholt]

One of the worst clearly biased displays of umpiring Ive seen.

Does it have to be a conspiracy? Couldn't simple incompetence be the reason?

[Munga]

I won't blame the result on the umpires, we should win no matter what. But they were atrocious for both teams.
I saw Armo get his head kicked off, nothing, Armo get his hand kicked off, nothing, Roberton holding the ball, nothing, Saad constantly being held back, nothing, Maister arm slaps, nothing, plenty of frees to Tigers ducking or diving forward though!

Id almost buy that if it only occured so often......

Surely they are not that incompetent in this age?

[felix]

Easiest game in the world for the umpires to conspire a result ....therefore we need video replay for every decision .
