Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!
- Thread starter iLoVeNeWmAn
- Start date
Someone posed to me today whether if the shoe had been on the other foot whether Sydney would have been awarded a 50m penalty to tie the game..
They would also have got a free kick for dissent to win it.
Therein lies the pronblem. Subjectivity.
The umps have clearly decided Bolton is ignoring the whistle when he has been penalised the 50's this year for playing on.
Dont forget they got away with one of their players holding onto the post and shaking it like a chimp a while back as well. They get a lotta love.
Bolton is dumb because the umps have been red hot on this. He shouldn't assume the whistle hasn't gone when he didn't hear it.
And then sometimes you can be clumsy, dumb *smile* boxing try hard and demand an apology for be labelled a coward, for throwing a coward's punch.

AFL apologises after Swans lash league for tribunal treatment of Franklin
Swans chairman Andrew Pridham came out swinging on Thursday, furious with the superstar forward’s treatment at the tribunal. It drew an apology from the AFL to the player and club hours later.
But, you can't ask an umpire "what's that free kick for?".
Something is rotten...
No apology from the Swans for slagging off at Cotchin during the hearingAnd then sometimes you can be clumsy, dumb *smile* boxing try hard and demand an apology for be labelled a coward, for throwing a coward's punch.

It is cowardly.. Punching a person knowing he can't hit back.. He's a dog.
But its all changed now Harry, haven't you heard? Didn't hear the whistle, common sense, no 50. All sorted.
Exactly. When I got told to do the dishes last week and went to the pub instead, I simply didn’t hear. If I did, I’d have most certainly done the dishes. Otherwise, I asked my old girl to apply common sense. Which she didn’t, but that’s my point. She should have, just like Stevic. She’s a useless umpire….
Dissent! 50m Redfords.
Another 50 for being a dumkopf for expecting Mrs Redfords or any other female to apply common sense.
Was watching V Swans live at the Sporting Globe with pints flowing, and rowdy supporters for both sides.
If the non 50 happened before the 3 grand finals I would have been apoplectic.
When it happened I was kind of Meh.
Think I might be Benjamin Button

Most of them talk about Bitcoin, Sharemarket, Work or Family et al (real boring crap) and hardly watch the game at all. Its why they need a Buddy type to get the crowd to actually give a *smile* about the game.
Ever since old Kenny stopped banging the advertising hoardings after a goal I'm not sure they even have a local cheer squad.
