I am sure last week's display, the subsequent publicity and dropping of at least one of the officiating umpires helped us last night.

Obviously, for a change, a very biased home crowd wasn't allowed to influence the decisions.
It’s a one off. Enjoy it while it lasts; it won’t happen again for another 10 years.

Take no notice. Sour grapes is all.
I wish all the PA supporters who are baying for blood regarding the last quarter umpiring look to Chad mouthing off to the Umpires - if anything is going to have an impact - this is it.
Was it Dorkoff who just walked it over the line? That’s deliberate every day of the week.
Not according to Kane. Flog that he is.

Anyway, the guy probably can't help it. Who the f*** in their right mind calls a kid Kane or Caine. f****** nuff nuffs.

I just had a look at the PA Forum on BigFooty - Curly wouldn't get guernsey over there - way too complimentary to teh Umpires.

He’s a St Kilda supporter too.

Hello. PA were stone cold motherless goalless in the last.

That had nothing to do with the umpires.

See, it’s ok when it happens to us...but when it happens to them, all hell breaks loose.

As the AFLs ugly sister, we had to wear it.

Time for them to suck it up.

We are easy pickings for the media as we are seen as an unfashionable team due to having no standout stars

Currently sitting 3rd having beaten 3 teams sitting in the top 8 but that still seemingly isn't good enough for the media to take us seriously.

Oh well ..... underdogs flying under the radar and all that

Every single goal Port kicked in the second half led directly from a dodgy free.

Don't whine about it on here.

You’ll get interrogated by the resident QC.

He says he is an important member of the legal community. No good?

Yep.
They played audio of the umpire apologising and saying he didn't see it.
When I first saw it I thought Parker had ducked and that's why it wasn't paid, in slow-mo is was as obvious a free as there is.

A couple of the ruck frees had me baffled, one against Marshall and one in the last to Marshall for what I could not tell. On both occasions both rucks looked at the umpire with no clue who was getting the free, these should be play on.

I thought we had an absolute s*** go last week against Adelaide and got a very good run on Saturday night.

You'd think the apology we received last week had the umpires focused on ensuring they were not swayed by home crowd noise.

I think he is a leading member of the bulls*** community myself. Whether that could be labelled important remains to be seen.

I do know a couple of guys who were avid saints supporters and who were subsequently appointed judges. One of them was an up himself wanker.

Bromberg a former player was appointed a federal Court judge. Doubt any of them post here, but you never know. :wink:

I really doubt it too and think it would be a pretty stupid thing to do.

I know a judge and they are warned against being on social media, anon or otherwise because of the risk involved, particularly the risk of being compromised in anyway. Doubt they would have the time.

But like you said, you never know.

My mistake, I forgot about their goal at the start of the third.

Every goal after that led on from a dodgy free.

A holding the ball free against Jones on the wing was kicked to Duursma who celebrated like it was the last goal they would kick for a while.

And he was right, Dursma.

They only kicked two in the third and didn't kick one in the last, from memory.
