Yep, hate people who think they’re so important and the star of the day ruining junior sport..,
At least Curly has finally hit the nail on the head regarding something, pity it’s a bit too close to home.
I feel sorry for any poor junior player or official who comes across your wrath and delusional rantings that you frequently burden us with.

Re: Eleni Umpiring Saints v Freo
If you could open that second eye of yours you would clearly see I’ve frequently acknowledged we’ve got the rough end of the stick in games, just as I’ve frequently acknowledged when we’ve had a good run in games.
Because both happens. It’s called trying to be unbiased.
Swings and roundabouts.
Talking about cheating and umpiring conspiracies is pathetic, often by people who love playing the victim to excuse their, or our teams, shortcomings.

Re: Eleni Umpiring Saints v Freo
Oh poor dud. Does it bother you that much that I have as much right as you to comment. Now your taking pot shots because I volunteer to coach, mentor and nurture junior football. Maybe you should try it yourself that’s of course that’s if theyed have you. As for junior players I can confidently say the kids are and always have been priority so again your disgusting and vile illdirected attacks on me show how ignorant you are.The_Dud wrote: ↑Fri 09 Aug 2019 11:37pmYep, hate people who think they’re so important and the star of the day ruining junior sport..,

We all know the type of person you are there in every league. The umpire everyone spews about getting A’s it’s all about me me me.

Perhaps you would prefer the more PC terms advocated by the herald sun.
"If you’re the sort of person to get up and yell at the footy umpire without even a trigger warning, this is for you.
Here are 20 woke, anti-maggophobic comments you are politically permitted to make at the footy.
1. If you require the use of a trained canine as visual aide, you have my full support.
2. Your whistle is presently in no danger of being overused.
3. I have had respectful, consensual relations with a member of your immediate family.
4. I believe your talents might best be applied in a different field of work.
5. Although I do not presume your gender, I observe your follicles are sparse.
6. It is wonderful to see tolerance of all levels of intellect in umpire hiring policy.
7. While sleep is important for mental health, you should reconsider doing it during play
8. Age is clearly no indication of ability because my grandparent could make a boundary throw like that.
9. Congratulations on embracing a fluid definition of 15m.
10. It is human to make mistakes and you are really, really human.
11. Your outward appearance doesn’t reflect who you are inside. If you are an opposition player on the inside, please let us know.
12. How brave of you to identify as a goal umpire.
13. Your success in your chosen field, despite your obvious lack of education, is truly inspirational.
14. While your patronage of the safe injecting room is encouraged, it is not advisable to visit immediately prior to a match.
15. It is great to see you shunning outdated body image expectations around weight.
16. How shameful for the AFL not to provide you with a rule book in Braille.
17. I trust your decision not to call ‘holding the man’ is a silent protest against the patriarchy.
18. Proposed laws legalising marijuana will undoubtedly help me understand your decisions.
19. Thank you for prompting me to challenge my prejudices about what is and isn’t a handball.
20. As a fan of inclusiveness, I welcome your application of netball rules to this match.
In the end it is up to the mods to decide what is and what isn't permitted by the forum rules NOT you.

I don't think I will sleep tonight knowing she is umpiring.
Posters that have admitted they were wrong about Hanna's gastro and the club didn't create a cover story.

Re: Eleni Umpiring Saints v Freo
It wasn't great umpiring today but the only reason it's getting all this attention is so that forumites can pile in and enjoy abusing a woman without being called out for sexism - witness Special's remarks about "the bitch in green" in another thread. The calls are actually no better or worse than ever but a female umpire is more visible. Most of the time we don't notice which umpire's making which decisions. Every time Eleni makes a call it's getting questioned because it's her - then, when you look at the replays, the decisions are mostly correct.
I'd even suggest that some of the threads appearing on this forum amount to deliberate baiting - forumites longing for the opportunity to put the boot in at anyone who suggests this is sexist behaviour. Just take a breath and rewatch the Adam Goodes doco.
