Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!

The Vlastuin one gifting them a goal will be the talking point but goals from 50 m penalties for stand rule BS is just as infuriating

Footy is cooked.

Absolutely cooked.

Rubbery, 50 shades of grey interpretations.

Every decision can be argued wrong

50 meter penalties look so comical most of the time. The smallest "infraction" and your opponent gets a free goal.

It's time to investigate O Gorman.

Reams us every single time.

It's been confirmed that umpires have leaked Brownlow information. Footy is worth millions to betting agencies.

Be naive to think some of them aren't at least trying subtly to influence games

The number 8 best us over
He sure did Vlastuin & dogs player go for the ball both bump Vlastuin wins bump contest immediate free by ump number 8
Same when Naughton flew the ball got nowhere near it ump 8 push in the back
They we’re getting frees in forward 50 we’d never get in 100years

I thought Vlastuin just stood his ground, and the other bloke initiated the contact.

We need to learn how to dive. They look at the reaction from the player and assume the act was worse than it was. They conned several frees from the umps in their forward 50. Those 2 to Naughton and McComb in the last were incredibly soft especially when you review what we don't get in our F50.

If we start diving the media will demand AFL fine us for diving

2 dodgy frees to the Dogs kinda won them the game .. Tennis Stars dive and the Vlasts 'high' contact ..
