Title: Umps
Post by: Coach on June 01, 2012, 10:34:08 PM
I'm not one who normally suscribes to "the world is against Richmond" theory but the umpires were an absolute pack of duds tonight. If the Saints ended up winning I bet they would have invited the maggots to sing the song with them.

We got a couple of good periods with them, but there were some shocking decisions too.

Umpires were terrible. The Hayes non holding of the ball in the third was a howler.

Kingy was tripped, decapitated and pushed in the back every time he went near it but can't get a free.

Agree with the sentiments and I thought the (almost) game changing decision was the non-holding the ball against Del Santo in the last that they goaled from. The most blatant mistake from an umpire all season that got them back into it after we jumped clear.

Yep. Had an eternity, got spun around twice and then got rid of the ball by dropping it with his left hand. Great umpiring :clapping

How's abt the last 3 centre bounces, 3 frees against maric, especially the last one he fair and square jumped at it, and got done.

Morris got his head ripped off by reiwoldt for the goal that let them hit the front, the dal santo one, reckon some bets were laid, was incredibly bad

The umps were noticeable tonight as it seemed everytime we got a mini-break on the scoreboard, St Kilda suddenly got a string of frees in row in the space of 5 minutes and got back into the game. It also looked like a lot of holding off the ball was let go and then one was plucked out when you least expected it. All we ask for is consistency from the umps and as the old saying goes a good umpiring performance is when you don't notice them.

They crucified us tonight. But good sides win without umps. We are a good side  :thumbsup

Loved the massive boo on Kosi going for that goal in the goal square... Followed by the standing ovation when he shanked it  :lol

Nick whinged all bloody night, finally gave away a 50m for abuse.

First 3 qtrs the umps were noticable with even poor deicsions for both sides..

Last qtr was stupid that period where Nick Riewoldt got about 5 free kicks in 3 minutes. Worst one I thought was the 50m penalty, happens 20 times in a game and never gets paid, can't remember who it was but Armitage tackled a Richmond player after he marked it and went into his back and didn't get off him.. Stupid.

Don't think we got 1 free kick in front of goal tonight. Saints had a few.

Was a clear Newman mark.
Double standard to the one to the Saints on the wing.

Some very strange decisions last night

was the worst display of one sided umpiring l have ever seen in football. Surely like to see a review by the club, AFL, & the umpires cause alot of that is not explainable. 1 umpire is clearly a Richmond hater everytime he umpires our games. cant think his name but has the dark hair.

I no longer can make heads or tails of what they are doing out there.  At first I thought we were going to have a bit of a night out in the first quarter then it got ugly ...

I didn't think the umpiring could get any worse than the Essendon game. I was wrong.

Looking forward to Geishens bullpoot explanation of the Dal Santo 720 degree spin & non-holding the ball.

"correct decision" - waves hands in front body  :banghead

It's a Collingwood conspiracy. We've been down for so long when we come good we'll make them look like a token footy club.

Be afraid be very afraid. :help

That Dal Santo non holding the ball decision turned the game.

Kingy got such a bad treatment by the Maggots, you can see it in his face when yet again it would not go to him or go agaisnt him. I was so proud of him when you could see he wanted to really say what he thought but held back. He gave a look that said "Your an idiot but your not going to give 50 against me". They cant pay 50's for looks.

Was one of the worst umpiring displays I have ever seen and without the 3 extra players we would of smashed them.

Just watched the replay of that last quarter again and there were 5 decisions that didn't go our way (3 frees against and 2 for us that weren't paid) resulting in  a score of 4 goals 1 point.  >:( The aints would have been smashed Hawthorn style if we were not prevented from doing them over!
