Gold.
Is that what your GFC paid the umps?
Surprising really considering the rustbelt of geelongistan is about to go belly-up as Ford bails out. lol

Gold.
Your whinging in the gameday thread was incessant and now you feel the need to start a thread on this.
Give it a rest.
You guys where stooged and you need Rosich and your Prez to put the squeeze on Gill.
I'd also hope you'd use whatever influence you have with the WAFC to also get some influence. Remember the WAFC (via the govt) is building the AFL a brand new stadium for **** all.
THE AFL corruptly made you play that final in Geelong last year and now you copped that penetration by the umps at that pop gun country backwater ground.
heckin'g disgrace.
I heard you gus won it at the Commonwealth games, can't remember what sport....
Maybe diving?
Who?Gus?
Who?
Thanks for the advicePhilistine. Educate thyself!!

We have a past Dockers board member on the AFL commision. I held such great hope.
Justified thread imo. There were clearly two set of rules out there depending on which jumper you were wearing.
It got to the stage where I wasn't even mad - I just sat back disappointed that a top(ish) of the table clash could be so obviously fixed by the umpires in one team's favour. I actually found myself smiling in bemusement every time they overlooked a free to us only to pay a soft one to them seconds later.
Usually I can only manage such detachment if I'm stoned... but today I was drinking, so the fact I couldn't even get mad with numerous beers under my belt speaks volumes about how gutting it is to realise you follow a sport where fairness doesn't apply.
At best the umps went in with preconceived notions that we were the bad guys - like this is a f**king WWE storyline or something - at worst it was a complete fix. Either way it shakes your faith in the sport when this keep happening to us time and time again.
I'm not one to bang on about poor umpiring, but that was deplorable, if it had have been a level playing field for the first half, we could have actually got some momentum. Look what happened when they put the whistle away for the last quarter, we kick a bag of goals and almost snatch the game. Heartbreaking.
+1We cannot be top 2 - it would mean that there would be no QF played in. Victoria. The AFL will move mountains to make sure that doesn't happen.
Those 6 points lost us the match.The Stevie J one is just ******* mind boggling
You forgot the bit where if you breathed on Hawkins you would get pinned too.It was an absolute disgrace. I was absolutely fuming and going off my head as Azzlandia and everyone else at Moondyne Joes can attest to. I thought last week against Carlton was bad but this week was a lot worse. How Stevie J can kick Lachie in the head and then get himself a free kick I have no idea. How he can grab Sutty by the throat and get himself a free kick I have no idea. Why Bartel is a protected species and can duck his head and drive it in to a tackle and get a free I have no idea. How the umpires keep paying Selwood's blatent cheating I have no idea. How Sandi can get absolutely monstered each week being held and having his arm chopped but not getting a free I have no idea. If the umpires payed things both ways we would have won by a fair margin.
we have no control of the umpiring, no point wasting energy on complaining about it.
should be focusing on things we can fix like injecting a bit of youth, duffy and crozier really stood up tonight.
Yeah you literally blew a gaskin, understandable. I got to the point where I just sat back in bemusement.It was an absolute disgrace. I was absolutely fuming and going off my head as Azzlandia and everyone else at Moondyne Joes can attest to. I thought last week against Carlton was bad but this week was a lot worse.
