Congratulations POTY in my book.
here's a thought, can anyone with the time and patience edit the pathetic frees that were given to geelong and then roll another segment with the unpaid frees to freo.
armed with this well edited footage it would be easy to campaign to have our whinging heard in a more public forum.
media producers are always looking for a story, and if we do their work and gather the evidence/footage I'm certain it'll gather some momentum .
in conjunction with a basic facebook and twitter campaign we could easily put it out into mainstream media.
They did when Mackie went off for a concussion test. It was extremely good timing too. Very convenient.
Geelong had 17 free kicks more than us, their average disposals were 16.7.
They might as well have had an extra man on the field.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought that was a little suss.
It's probably because your team is fully of sniping, cheating dogs.
Free kick parity is a notion held on to by fairly simple minds, with little understanding of the sport.
Watch the Duffy highlight video on the afl website. Fyfe gets pulled to ground while trying to pick up the ball but no free kick.Still dumbfounded on what Fyfe has to do to get paid a free kick. It just wasn't last night but it's being happening all year. The bloke is held and rag doled at every contest and get's no help from the umpires.
Then you have a look at Joel Selwood, you can't even touch the bloke without getting a free kick
90% of the football watching public are from Victoria. If Freo gets reamed by the umps, 90% of the football watching audience will think it is good for the game but about say 3% made up by Freo fans will feel ripped off. So long as the umps are good in the minds of 90% of fans then they will be judged as doing a good job. In the minds of some, this is Victoria's game and we are intruders.I don't think there's any actual under the table match-fixing going on, in our surveillance nanny-state the Umpires are too aware of how easily they could be caught pants down.
The truth is it's just bias; they're no different to the Vic-centric Commentary team. They get rigorous training in neutrality but just can't observe it on Match day. You can't put it down to the crowd because we get stinking howlers at our home games as well.
I'd be interested to hear what RTB has to say on Monday night 882; he typically watches the game 3-4 times after the match is over and will pick up the abhorrent inconsistencies. Sometimes you wish he had a mouth on him like Brad Scott ready to spit venom in the Post Match.

I made it up. But the point is that what Freo fans think is of little significance in the scheme of things.Where the hell did you come up with that bullshit number?
