Hate blaming Umpires but ........

Missed opportunity to put 4 on the board

How many times were frees ignored when they were going our way and non frees paid to GWS.

Don't want to use the Umpires as a crotch - but in these games when it really does come down to 50/50, we need some reward for effort.

Free kicks - 25 to 20 - how many of ours were genuine hard won tackles - how many of theirs were soft???

Cannot believe the crap served up by the men officiating.

We need to learn how to duck and milk the system!!!!

We won the clearances, we won the contested possessions, we won the tackle count. Keep your heads up boys!!!!!

Have to agree, our skills were shocking but even then we should have won with those shocking skills.

Sliding door moment was lonie not getting the free in front of goals then dempster giving away a 'free kick' the other end. Definately noticed that the umpires around the ground were not on the same page for the whole game

Agreed. I very rarely have too much of a go at the umpires but today they were really frustrating. At the ground it looked like we got the raw end of every stick.

Another great display today. What do people expect other than bias s*** like today. The non free to Lonie then the free against Dempster should be sent to corruption officers.

Poor umpiring but I'm not sure why you'd assume it was bias.

Absolutely - instead of a 1 point ball game with us having momentum - it became a 13 point game and they had some breathing room.

At that point even Dunstall was expressing disbelief.

I noted a few points throughout the game, that the commentators questioned the umpires decisions, and never was it when we were given a free.

What was it then? One free to Lonie not paid then a mistake the other end gifts them a goal.

I thought they made errors. I think all umpires do. What I don't think is it is corruption and bias. That is plain illogical.

in the first half it appeared that GWS raised the bar on dropping the head for a free as as an artform but having said that aren't the umps made to look silly because of it?

I have no doubt that poor umpiring cost us that game. Very lopsided.

No not at this level you can't miss a free like the one to Lonie unless you choose to.

You know that makes no sense, right? I get paid a lot more than the umpires and I still make mistakes at work.

That is hilarious. So I take it this will be front page news tomorrow. Has to be. Umpires cheat will probably be the headline.

So you think the umpires or friends bet on GWS so they cheated to make sure they won? That is even bigger news. That will be on the first 5 pages of the paper and head every news bulletin tonight I would think if you are right.

Do you look at something and go I know this is a mistake but I will do it anyway? Do you make mistakes deliberately that effect people?

How can you tell it's a deliberate mistake? Are you inside the umpires' heads?
