Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!
- Thread starter iLoVeNeWmAn
- Start date
Nobody can tell me that front office have not indicated to the umpiring department to tailor there umpiring when dealing with the AFL's new baby's.
It's clear that commentators are hand cuffed when speaking about umpiring or umpiring directives.
This is NOT a league or competition this is entertainment dressed up as sport with hidden directors to maximize the returns of the investors.
Fast losing me this b#lls##t.

Nothing will change until Jeff Gieschen is removed from his post, he coaches the umpires about as well as he ever coached Richmond. Is there any legal avenue that Richmond can explore to complain about the treatment from the umpires, especially to Jake King who seems to be victimised simply because he's Jake King.
Another disgusting effort by the bloody maggots.
Paid every tiggy touchwood free that they could to the Giants, but made sure it was a definite free before they paid one to Richmond.
Someone should deliver a truck load of chicken poo to AFL headquarters, specifically addressed to the maggots, who thrive in poo.

They fined us $5000 last week for the trainer giving them a spray.
Next week might fine us more for the supporters giving them a spray through our TVs.
3 classics
1 Free before the ball was bounced in front of goal to GWS for Batchelor niggling his opponent
2 Power running in a straight line towards the boundary and kicking it straight over the line from 8 metres away and not being done for deliberate
3 Vickery being tackled in the head no ducking and being done for holding the ball last week.
Would not happen to Collingwood, West Coast, Adelaide.
How about senior people at club arranging a meeting with AFL
I've been waiting over 10 years for my team to play finals and don't want to miss out this year because of a dicey free to fremantle in front of goal later in the year - better to do something now not after the event

The umpire who paid that free to Cameron against Batch should be made to play a game of footy or two. They have more niggle than that in a game of netball. I want a please explain explain from the umpires and their protectors on that.
GWS don't need to start winning for them to get frees.Tigermad2005 said:
It's Funny when out team was really young it was there inexperience and discipline that was causing us to get frees against us. When its GWS they are given a free ride!! As Rinso said, this game is losing me. it has become truly corrupt with both umpiring and fixturing, but apparently I'm just a conspiracy theorist
Cannot believe that some here need to hang it on the umpires all the time.Just look at our poor scoreline today for the amount of inside 50s.Now that needs looking at.(a centre half forward would be nice perhaps Cameron,Patton,get Sarge back because until that void is filled,no final IMO).

Yeah, that's probably the worst part of it. Listening to, for example Dunstall, apoligising for the attroicous (corrupt?) inconsistent decisions just throws more salt in the wound. Commentators are sh!t scared of ever critisising the umpires these days even when they make blatant errors. It's just embarrassing.

Have been a conspiracy theorist for a number of years now and it's the only reason that makes any sense to me. We are just not needed in the finals and the directive from the geish (ex Richmond coach and sacked also btw) is just sour grapes on the geish's part. Just can't beat the opposition AND the umpires too.
