s*** umpiring

Post: # 1441813Post bergholt »

is not what we saw tonight. Always a couple of mistakes but overall I thought it was well umpired. Let's hope that keeps up for the rest of the year.

Yeah I thought the umps did well tonight.
Best umpired game I have been to for a few years.

Noticed the coach went and shook their hands before the game, Jones must have done some training with Selwood.

For what normally gets served up to the Saints, was quite good
New rule interpretation of using head as a battering ram was missed several times (particularly by Nathan Jones)
Also thought we were called "advantage - play on" quite a few times, clearly when there was no advantage.

Well I reckon they favoured us. And what plugger said is right also.

Other than the few ridiculous advantage calls it was a lot better than last year. No rubbish 50's or technical in the backs.

Is it the new interpretations or the fact they got rid of Geischen?

Maybe the new regime has different ideas. Umpiring seems to be generally better over the first two weeks of the first round


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>.
