Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!

How can only one player be fined in a 6-player+++ melee?
no case to answer on the Brown sling tackle. Pretty sure his head hit the turf...
We have come to realise that the umps have blinkers on when it comes to certain RFC players so they get pinged whether guilty or not. What surprised me in that melee was that Cumbo started it and got away free. I will never understand how the MRO come up with their decisions

Lynch must’ve been wrestling with himself
Why are no dorks players fined?


I seem to recall that Lynch was the last player to get up, he was on the bottom of the pack, how the hell didn't anyone else get fined.

God I hate the AFL, what a corrupt bunch *smile* they are.

The ONLY reason I went yesterday was to honour/salute/thank Dusty for the joy he's given us Tiger fans.

As for the AFL they can go get stuffed, I hate them with a passion.

The most amateur “professional” competition in the world
“Competition” being debatable as to what it is…. Sports Entertainment. Rules can be changed whenever it suits, rules and outcomes don’t have to be fair, games playing fixture to benefit media broadcasters, etc etc.
They can gagf, then make out they’re the custodians of social conscience. *smile* lying, cheating hypocrites

Melee? With himself. Appeal it. Ask how you can engage in an individual melee with yourself.
Expose Christian for the *smile* wit that he is.

Maybe he said to himself that " your mother was a hamster & your father smells of elderberries" that'd get him really grumpy. No wonder he melee'd with himself.


Absolute farce. Christian is an incompetent imbecile. Something he continually proves.

AFL is a joke atm.
Cant take it seriously.

Just look at the last 2mins of Nth v Coll.

A joke of a competetion.
In what world do you think that it is a competition?

All decisions are made to ensure that profits are maximized.

An unethical immoral organization from top to bottom.

Everything about the AFL stinks.

But he is the perfect AFL pasty and that it is why he still has a job in the Australian FUc#42 League.

I haven’t read this thread over recent days but has anyone mentioned the “insufficient intent” call against Sonsie in the last quarter?
We had a few hawks fans around us and even they were laughing about it.

That little misplaced kick which leg breaked 5 metres from the boundary line. It's too much for these flogs to handle....
 
And to the surprise of absolutely no-one, the AFL has ticked off the no 50 metre call from the Norf-Pies game. The error according to Kane is actually because the ump didn't call play on after Scott took a few steps.

She's also ticked off the ARC call earlier in the game, even though the footage looks like Scotts fingers touched the ball.


Good old Giggles at her gaslighting best.

Between this and her reported decision to make changes to the father-son and academy bids this year she has got off to an incredibly mediocre start, even for an AFL executive.

I didn't think the bar for stupidity could be set lower from the previous people in her position, but here we are.

First time I have thought Bartel had some brains

What has Laura said about this rubbish?

That throw from Quaynor is a joke
Laura had no issues with the frees or 50 not called. Nothing to see here.

They didn’t ask her how Daicos disposed of the ball in the last few minutes.

Yeah what would all the ex players know. Laura is the expert.
