Wtf 🤬 these umpires

[mightytiges]

You know the rules Tiges as stupid and technical as they are now  .

Brainless out there  .

[mightytiges]

Pickett should have kept going. Kick to Bolton needed to be better too. Bolts misses.

30 - 39

[mightytiges]

50 to Grimes. It gets to George on the boundary 35 out. Misses and rushed.

31 - 39

[mightytiges]

Why kick it 1 (Pickett) vs 3?

Dumb footy this qtr

[Andyy]

Going to be a looooong year

[Owl]

Idiot netball I can’t watch it. Give ‘em bibs with there positions

[The Machine]

Can't stand the rules but we do not help ourselves at all...
The Grimes one was the only one there me thinks.

[pmac21]

Couple of standout points after half a game.
Rioli is no defender, soft.
Ive been a Castagna fan but enough is enough.  With that snap in 2nd quarter he gave himself zero percent chance of kicking the goal.  Time for another. 

[mightytiges]

Half-time

Richmond    4.5     4.7-31
Carlton        1.3     5.9-39

Goals: Bolton 2, Lynch, Baker.

Pathetic brainless footy! 

[Andyy]

Trade Prestia after this year.  Had enough.

Wouldn't get a second rounder IMO.

[torch]

Prestia?

[JP Tiger]

We got pinged for 2 50 mtrs for being a millimetre over the mark which cost us goals, but when George marks in the pocket the umpire called out to the Carlton player on the mark to get back a metre.  Three times he called out ‘back a metre’ but the Carlton player never moved …. Soooo …. what happens next?  A 50 mtr penalty for the obvious?  Or make George shoot from the boundary line?  Hmm ….   

[mightytiges]

Can we fumble, miss tackles (pin the arm FFS!), miss open teammates by hand and foot and make any more mistakes if we tried? 

Can we give away anymore dumb frees and 50s if we tried? The rules are stupid and umps screw us as it is without making it easy for the umps to pay decisions against us .

First 15 minutes of that quarter was just lazy as team. No intensity, pressure or team workrate. Gifted them the momentum on the inside and outside. The remainder we did lift and start getting our hands on it but we then stuffed up everything we touched  .

Where's our crumbers front and centre to Lynch and Jack by the way?

[mightytiges]

Prestia?

Hammy.
