Geelong fans complaining about umpiring.
LOLZ
It's like their fans getting on talkback after the game bemoaning "what's going on down there." FFS you've hardly watched your side lose for eight years!Melbourne fans must listen to that crap and shake their heads! It's over. It's been great. But it's over. Enjoy the memories because they are beyond your wildest dreams. But it's over.
Anzac weekend 2007 - North beat Geelong at Kardinia. The fallout is seen as "the making of an era." Next week they pants Richmond by 157.

One decision I didnt like. From a boundary throw in Blicavs (I think) came in third up and tried to leap over Goldy and the primary geelong competing ruckman. Goldy got Blicavs high but had no reason to even think he was there. I'm not arguing the free, just making a moral point that if the only way you can win the ruck is by running with a double team at every contest, the extra man should be given far less leniency in terms of infringements for/against.
My greatest joy today was the sweet sound of the G-Town fans' boos directed at LT for his skill at gaining some high contact frees, considering they've watched the master at work weekly in their jumper for years. Some of the fans even looked up from their knitting to boo, they were that angry.
Yep. And both thought they should be allowed to contest a mark by forcefully shoving an opponent with both hands in the back. They both got away with a few, but were shocked when they did get penalised.we got a fantastic run but the ill discipline from Clark and Hawkins was a major factor behind the free kick count. Clark lost his cool on a few occasions
I don't recall any frees we got that were wrong. (I had to laugh at Basil querying a free against Motlop because the tackle dislodged the ball ; Mathews had to explain that, having beaten one tackle already, that counts as prior opportunity). I did think we were lucky at a few obvious frees that were let go.Free kick counts are quite simply the worst stat in footy, unless of course you are criticising the team that gave away the most free kicks. Last week we had specific examples of crazy decisions... The Schulz holds, the Monfries flop. But the free kick count was irrelevant. I've heard cats fans crying about the count but show me specific examples of howlers. We won the game (and the free kick count) because we were harder, to the ball first, disciplined, and better.

Their tackling was extremely sloppy.
