Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!

I lost count of the times we were scragged, held and jumped on.
10 frees for the game 9 against. Is that some sort of record?
Maybe the afl know how inept and useless these duds are and allow allow one whistle with a pea in it to be shared around the 500 umpires on the field

Given the amount of kick to kick the Bombers were doing,and the least physical I have seen a Tiger side playing for some time it is no wonder the umps had an easy night.
At 1 point, I can't remember who it was but we tackled them, seemed a pretty clear HTB. Stevic puts the whistle to his mouth, then doesn't blow it. Allows the game to play for another 10 seconds then called for a ball up.
It seemed pretty obvious yesterday that they decided they weren't going to pay many frees, for some unknown reason.
They just refused to pay holding the man frees yesterday. 1 right in front of my in the Shane Warne stand and the short is pulled all the way back off the body (apparently they look for that) yet it was play on. There were numerous frees both ways that they just refused to pay last night. It was very strange baring in mind how the umps have impired the rest of the season.
Rarely get pinged for wearing the tackle and holding the ball in while pretending to try n get free. *smile* up trying to dispose of the ball when you get tackled is almost a jail sentence from the maggots
Four blind mice, four blind mice, see how they run. Laughable, but a bonus we've rarely got over the years.
I was a fair distance away at the ground and haven’t watched the replay on tv, but did the umpire pay a mark or was it a free kick, as I thought ( watching it the big screen at the ground) that the bummers player took him down without eyes on the ball and his arms were wrapped around Ryan . I didn’t see what the umpire signalled
I just had a look at FootyWire stats and Samson didn’t have a free paid to him on the night.
The think the ump was blindsided when Samson fell with his back to the ump. The ump paid the mark.
It just goes to show that having 4 field umpires is a complete waste of time when they can’t get into position. They must just stand in a line. Dumkofps.
Umpiring was PI55 poor today. 14-23 in Ports favor BUT how many of those given were in front of goal, Killed us.
Yeah it was a good old fashion shafting.
Its not how many, its where.
Heat maps on frees would create riots
