Just to irk you fellas a little more (hopefully) here is another rule that happens to only apply to us and not to anyone else.


Anyone want to try and guess how that's different to Jack's "shepherd" last week? Allowed Freo's first goal and probably helped them gain some momentum back

That is just so stuffing frustrating and a perfect example of why more and more fans are getting fed up with the game and losing the passion for it.

If I was at richmond I'd be highlighting that vs the jack one publicly in the media and asking for a please explain

I'll try and get the jack one up some time tomorrow so we can compare for ourselves.

The past 48 hours just goes to show how bad the umpiring and decision making of the AFL is
Now trying to ban the " bounce " due to OH&S issues
The rules are stuffed
If a goal decision is not asked to be  reviewed by field umpires , it should not be over turned by a person watching on a TV
Eddie McGuire is correct

Round 10:

holding the Ball

Deliberate rushed behind

and the 50 metre penalty for encroaching over the mark is still no where to found

Also, MIA is the dictionary .... umps need it so they can learn the meaning of CONSISTENCY

Umpire no
11
Curtis Deboy
Thinks he is more important than the game
Got a tip for him, better off not making a decision rather than making things up
If in doubt , don't pay

Round 11

I thought Holding the ball went missing last week

How wrong was I?

Gone completely this week.

Will we ever see it again?

Doesn't look like it.

If you find it lock it up and please return to AFL house at Docklands. No guarantee they will use it again but we can only hope

They were 50m happy last night. Felt the umps played catch up too, meaning they made a mistake and gave a cheap one the other way to compensate.

Jack's  50m was ridiculous as he was right next to another player and clear mistake.

The 50m to Caddy 50m was ridiculous.

Then after Tarrant complained, he got a soft as 50m too.

Not the right way to umpire being consistently wrong.
Go Tigers!
