Umpires again

Post: # 1949135Post CURLY »

Fox Footy show various incorrect non calls from over the weekend. Three of the five were mistakes against us. Thanks Fox for highlighting this obvious ongoing bias.

Are you referring to the 2 Non 50's discussed 'On the Couch'?

Are you talking about the Steele arms-out non 50? Or the King Hawkins-like push in the back in the goal square?

18-15

Bloody umpires!

They showed GC players waving their arms at the umpire. It’s 50 but as usual ignored.

There’s always something they’ll find to whinge about.

Ignore the bad calls that go our way, nothing to see here.

114-110 for the year.

Still not happy.

When they do a segment and show frees other teams missed against us let me know. The segment showed examples of missed 50’s. They were missed our way.

I thought the deliberate paid against Lienert was the worst decision of the day
As for the non free against King,
until the AFL didn’t overrule the Hawkins push against Harris last week I had always thought that was a clear free against
Obviously in the new AFL world of changed rules it is now ‘play on’

Nope - next week it will return to hands in the back

I used to bang on about poor umpiring years ago, but have finally realised that great teams usually manage to win despite poor umpiring decisions...not always, but usually. The worst features about our great game are the rules and interpretations .

I wouldnt be an umpire for quids

Yep and they both apparently play under the same set of rules.
