I give up! Riewoldt was held 9 times out of 10 and gets nothing, Petrie is sneezed on and its a free No.24 was the biggest joke!

I disagree. Jack pushed back into his defender a lot. That always results in a tangle and the forward being knocked about. petrie clunked big marks.
They were a joke. The non free to Lids was pathetic. No kicks to Jack despite being held constantly. McBurney is incompetent at best or a borderline cheat.
I took my gf to the game. She follows collingwood and had no agenda... And even she was shocked by the non-decisions that went against jack. He should have received at least 4 frees in the first half alone for holding. It feels like richo all over again

Yet when Petrie pushed back into McGuane and locked his arm, and McGuane swung his arm free and Petrie allowed himself to fall over, he got the kick. Admittedly it would've been tough for the umpire to pick, and they weren't up to scratch today.
jack was held and held and held....it was bloody insane.....i asked a friend who write for a newspaper about it on the way home..his reply was that its known that as long as jack keeps complaining to the umps they will not like him and he will not get many free kicks ....simple as that....
Should have been play on. Umpiring was disgraceful today and did influence result against us.LeeToRainesToRoach said:
Its not like freekicks just in general play its always costly free kicks which go against us. First of all the deledio one! How bloody pedantic are those green muppets. Footballs changed. Cant say a bloody word it goes against all emotions. Then the copious amount of times jack was held onto. The fifty against dusty for basically pushing the guy on the chest my bloody god!
Video review garbage halted the game when we had momentum. Anywhere else, Gieschen would lose his job over this farce.
No, Umpires weren't to blame....but they sure were contributors! A free against Tuck for taking the ball out of the "ruck" ( even though he didnt go up in the ruck contest!), 50m against Dusty for pushing in the chest and a free and 50 against Lids for highlighting the umpires incompetence. 3 goals.rosy23 said:
We lose by a goal... North get one inediblly soft goal when Lids is so incensed buy a decision he give away a free then the umpire becomes the first person in history to give a 50 when a player tells him to look at the replay
Read the rule book umps.
I draw umpire 24's attention to section 15 in the rule book. then look down to subsection 2.3 clause c. It reads as follows; a Player who takes possession of the football while contesting at a bounce or a throw by a field umpire or at a boundary throw in,shall be regarded as having prior opportunity except in the instance of a poor bounce or throw in.
Umpire 24 your shameful decision in front of the north Melbourne goals altered the result of the match. The bounce was poor and as a result the above rule should have been applied but instead you pinged Tucky and a goal resulted.
