Go on defend that umpiring

[Buckets]

KB couldn't even defend against a country boy bringing up the non decision against Butler compared to the holding the ball decisions against Steven and Saad. Old man should stop sucking up to the AFL rules committee.

I should not post on this thread/ I am too angry. When will the gutless morons who run our club protest to the AFL? I know it wont make any difference as long as the AFL is controlled by the power clubs, but at least we should publicly show our displeasure.

I hope they do, but with a fine for doing so you would think not.

Has his conference already been held?

[gringo]

At the game it's worse - corrupt scum. Tdl was wrestled to the ground after cox had his hand held for a free goal. Just awful. So many frees missed to Milne.

[SydneySainter]

Umpiring definitely favored the Eagles, but the Cox free was there, the 1st Priddis free was soft but there, the 2nd Priddis free was a crap call. But, we still had two chances to ice the game, one of them should never have been in doubt.

[borderbarry]

And we should name the worse offenders and encourage other clubs to do tbe same. I am sure all three umpires as we got a lot of our frees around the middle of the ground as we do every
week.

Yeah that was the last qtr. What about the rest of the game.

[mullet]

Well dont bother ringing in to Finey either cos he is worse than plugger66 at protecting the umpires

hes always been an apologist soft c#ck why would anyone listen to that brain dead snot?

well even he said the eagles played the umpires for fools.

[bigred]

Did not get rewarded for some good pressure in the first half. So many frees NOT paid that should have been.

Not in the spirit of the game.

Umpires were S H I T.

Game is rigged. Should expect it. Move on.

[SAAD]

Just got home fron game, never bagged umpires before but that was a joke. We still shoulda taken our chance but ffs! The last two weeks everyone blabbing the umpires are letting things go and then they dish this up wtf

[andrewg]

Umpiring was f.u.c.k.i.n.g inconsistent bull.s.h.i.t

The end

[saint6709]

My second post on this thread !!!- but my 8 year old has just pointed out that usually the umpiring will be swayed by the home crowd in an interstate clash - we are so badly umpired week in week out that even the noise of the crowd sees us absolutely slaughtered by the umps - The Club needs to act

[back to the junction]

Hardly cheats. Seen worst, didn't notice then much tbh.

Well open your fkn eye you idiot muppet.

Two non frees to Priddis for two goals.

We are two points up and WCE hold the ball in their goal square no free

Saad with 25 seconds to go cannonned in the back and it IS holding the ball.

We were absolutel robbed by those fkn c.unts.

Absolutely robbed.

And P66 if you come on here defending that fkn BS, you can go and fk yourself

We laid about six tackles where WC didn't dispose of the ball correctly. Yes , okay , Joey missed the shot in front? And Roo off the ground. But for the last few games I have felt as if we, the Saints are from another country. I hate blaming the umpires but those two free kicks in front of goal to Priddis was disgraceful

[saintsRrising]

AFL ENDORSED cheating.

WCE players are REWARDED for playing free kicks.

[mullet]

Well, interesting by Finey tonight. Has called WC midfield a bunch of cheats. Ducking, cringing, cheats. And the Afl allow them to get away with it. Also quoted the same stats that someone here has. Apparantly have had double the amount of frees for than the next best team. We are ranked 18th they are ranked 1

[cwrcyn]

Indefensible. I rarely get enraged at games regarding umpiring, because I expect them to make a few howlers. But tonight was beyond belief, and how I didn't fall from the front row of level 3 in my numerous fits of rage is a miracle. I have never urged the club to make a formal complaint before, but on this occasion they surely must.

[70s sainter]

I was f@#king losing the plot at the umpires as they were walking off . Haven't been that angry since we were robbed against collingwood with h o brien. So dissapointed in the afl right now.

[back to the junction]

Umpires were terrible, one of those umpiresI know personally and he is not a big fan of the Saints. I have never heard the roar of disapproval sound so loud. Are we all wrong?

[realdeal]

There was nearly a riot in the crowd tonight after the game.. No one could defend the umps after that display.
