Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!
- Thread starter iLoVeNeWmAn
- Start date
wasn't he also laughing in Tarrants face after he got the free ?
... what a crap piece of work Joe Daniher is, he's a sod, and the Lions is the perfect place for him ..
I assume the afl came out and defended going to the score review was correct. Even though it was a free to Balta. Never admit they are wrong.
The umpire thought that Balta was an offensive player so was going to give him a free and a shot at goal if the score review didn’t show a goal.
He later found out he was a defensive player.
It makes sense even though it’s kind of crazy. They are that focused in on the decisions they forgot team was kicking which way and who kicked the ball.
I don’t normally quote myself, but I was only joking AFL/ MRO. Did Cotch get fined for this incident?
"yeah that one looked bad on the replay, if you see one for the other team, pay it"
"you missed one against Jack Riewoldt, good job keep up the excellent work"
It's interesting how an earpiece changes the way games are umpired (through real-time feedback, which has never happened before). A figure from outside the game can now influence a match's momentum because of that new ability to communicate feedback in real time.
They're becoming more noticeable. I saw a spot where a Brisbane player went over to argue with the umpire, and the umpire just put his finger in his ear and turned away.
I'm pretty sure it was his ear.

weird effort from the Dumps last night
started strong for us, then evened thing up..
but, correct me if I'm wrong, did we not get a free kick in the 2nd half until the last few minutes? when it was all over?

Back to Fridays game, in the first qtr when a Collingwood player tackled Langdon, good tackle, another pies player jumps on top, yeah happens a lot and stops the ball coming out, but then about 3 or 4 more pies players all jump onto the pack aggressively and late and don’t allow Langdon to move. They were late, it was not a football action nor part of the original play - why wasn’t the decision reversed - they were allowed to pile on top of a player late because of what he said prior to the game - I thought it was a bad look for the game.
Ah - but collingwood and Geesook players can do whatever they like, I forgot.

Only watched a half of each quarter if that makes sense, but whatvo saw was so many "holding the ball" decisions that we didn't get.
Meaning, we tackled quite well, they dropped ball...after a couple of seconds and simply play on.
2 against Dixon that were ridiculous.
Never seen a season with worse umpiring.

The HTB rule is only fully understood by a small few, elite humans called umpire whisperers. I feel it is actually a vibe rather than a rule as I have been following this game for a while now and have no idea how the vibe will ever be interpreted on any given oval.
Thought the umps were typical last night, we didn't get the rub if the green but we did receive a number of very correct decisions in the first half. Which was unusual.

I thought the last quarter was probably the worst for it. But it was raining and possibly the wet weather fumbling effected how it looked at ground level. Having said that I thought we should have had 3 or 4 frees for it. The good thing was the fact our pressure and tackling was back. Sometimes it works better for us if we don’t get the free, but do the spillage.
But we won the free kick count by 1, away.
The wheel is turning, another similar thing to previous years. The umps smash us during the year, but things even up during finals cause we play finals type footy - that’s how I saw last nights game.
On Lynch, the umps just ignore him often.

The 3 umpires have been summoned to AFL headquarters this morning for an urgent please explain. They are going to have to justify their positions on the umpires list
But but but, we get looked after by the umps says this pies knob. If anything the filth are the ump's pets, always have been.
