Remember where you come from Cambo when you're directing the umps  ;) ;D.


Umpires' new instructions:
1. You must pay a free kick to Richmond.
2. If it's not a free kick then see point 1.

Cue the blame Wayne Campbell for poor umpire decisions thread
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

All favourtism jokes aside.
Campbo will be a great director of umpiring having been a smart player and having an understanding and perspective of the modern game, the ol' fella didn't have.

Plus he loves Richmond  ;D

Is that why he wanted to leave Richmond when he was playing ?

Does the mean kicks will now only have to travel 5 metres for a mark to paid? Or 15 metres straight up in the air? Will we see players being awarded marks from their own kicks?

Tuck might've retired a year too early - could've broken all kinds of possession records and probably won the Brownlow.

I get the impression he's more interested in sports administration than coaching.

On another note , the Herald Sun report says that ironically Geischen installed Campbell as captain in his last year as coach of Richmond.
 Is that right ? My recollection is that Frawley dumped Knights as skipper and replaced him with Campbell ?
