The state of the game: 5om / free goals in regard to water bottles

[Penelope]

the message here is if you are going to do something do it properly.

Martin may as well grabbed the prick and threw into the ground as hard as he could.

seriously, WTF has become of the game? they actually encourage snipping and getting in your opponents face.


A for the holding free to pavelich.

one camera angle clearly shows pavelich with a handful of rances jumper. the umpires are supposed to pay a free the moment they see that.

the other camera angle shows the umpire in the perfect position to have seen this.

so how the hell does he pay pavelich the free?

i cant believe that an umpire at this level could be so incompetent, so is he a cheat?

all part of the script, Freo are allowed to play 'tough finals like footy'  to prepare them for their home final.  FIFA doesn't like it when we rough up their chosen team for the year.

I'm so glad I didn't watch that game with you yesterday Al, there would have been a smashed TV for sure.  Without a doubt that was the worst umpired game we have suffered all year and for the first time it directly cost us a win.  Forget about all the moments we had our own destiny in our hands and botched the shots at goal, the truth of it all is that we got screwed for 4 quarters yesterday and that was all that kept those purple pr1ck5 in the game.  Our missed shots and posters should have meant the difference between a 3 goal win and a 6 goal win because we smashed them in general play.  And there was one of the maggots especially (# 20 I think it was - 20 something anyway) who was diabolical in his bent against us.  Took me a long long time to calm down last night!!!!!!!!

It's a damn shame that when Cotchin got a soft as butter free kick in the last that he had to kick it out of bounds on the full. He must of been told we weren't allowed to win this and following the script too.

Worst umpiring of the year.

Possibly of the last 5 years at least. Struggling to remember a more baffling, inconsistent and pro - opposition adjudication of a game.

[Penelope]

on a positive note.

after the water bottle goal , it was good to see jack get alongside dusty and keep the scabs at bay that wanted to get in and niggle him.

[TigerMonk]

outrageous. there is no such rule in football. That umpire was clearly a docker

[🏅Dooks]

It is obscene and a disgrace 

[Diocletian]

Did smasha hijack everyone's accounts here? Considering the potential crowd for next week v Hawthorn had we won, if anything the AFL would've more inclined to conspire with umpires for a result in our favour.

they made a 'law'about it a few years ago, apparently ...

after hansen of norf - splashed some water on mr. buddy

can you beleive this ? 

[Smokey]

In all this talk about the 'legality' or otherwise of the heinous offence of water-splashing, no-one has mentioned that the purple grub had hold of the arm Dusty was holding the bottle in at the time of the splashing.  What rights does the player have when the opposition player is physically restraining him from having a drink?  And have a look at how the flouro maggot would have seen that:

1:05:25 in: Chaplin in prime position to spoil the ball and Pav takes his eyes of the ball and looks directly at Chaplin and runs straight in to bump him off the line of the ball. Surely that's a free kick
