GAME DAY Round 13 - Tigers away to the Dockers

It's O'Gorman. He hates us.

He literally watched and blew play on.

There was a stat last year that in 4 games he had awarded frees 48-5 against us.

He was also the one that pulled back our advantage when it looked like we were going to score to give us our second free kick.

Very easy to not pay free kicks and also pay 50:50 ones.
Is he #42? That bloke absolutely shafted us a few weeks ago iirc
 
When I saw he was umpiring it was demoralising. Hes a cheating *smile*.
We seriously need someone to do some actual analysis of his free kick for and against in games against Richmond and then share it publicly if it says what I think it will say (and compare it to 'everything else')

No #10.

This is what I was referring to - so not sure if it is accurate.

Said it before... the more umpires we have, the weaker the cohort. There are umpires out there who are simply not ready or given the job to make up numbers.

Loving our midfield work today, getting their hands dirty. 30 contested possessions in a half between Taranto, Prestia and Cotch.

Freo have 65 for their entire team!

I've said it countless times, Young is not up to it. Too slow, too slow to react, bordering on laconic and panics under the slightest of pressure. His only attribute is that he is a spoiler.
Agree. Looking forward, when Grimes, Vlastuin, Broad are gone I can't see him taking on the first or second best tall forward. And he can't really play smaller players like the other 3.

*smile*. That’s at least two haters out there then.
Need a 5th umpire I reckon

Surely the club has to do something about this umpiring.
3 free kicks in a half of football???
Once again we are being shafted big time and it is having an effect on the scoreboard.

What I reckon will win us this game. Nanks continues a bloody good game. JR kicks three.Ryan wakes up and takes a couple of marks.Short catches up to his usual tally of kicks.And Pickett has a blinder.Job done.
 
Then we get a free that if called advantage as it should have been, would have been another goal.
Yeh, that was just terrible. The ball went to Baker with a clear advantage. They always give the team with the free a chance, they wait to see if oit is a genuine advantage and if they take it. Which we did. Farcical.

It's the 50/50 ones that you don't get that kill you.

I should have listened to my daughter who told me to select TT as my SC captain this week. 96 points in a half. Not bad for a plodder that doesn't impact games eh.

Ryan and Jack going for the same ball a few times. Makes it fodder for opposition backmen.

Umpiring is as one sided as I have ever seen.
The fox commentators are not allowed to comment or are directed not too.
It is just rubbish from all concerned.

Most of the commentary team are West Australians. They probably think we are being looked after

I'm feeling it's more like the 80/20 ones we aren't getting
