Re: D4 Section Ammos

ahm.....maybe just a little....

I will enjoy meeting you this weekend Big Waz and praise you for your responsible comments. You seem reasonable in a website that is cluttered so many characters which are flawed.

The Ferndale refurbishments will begin on Tuesday in our clubrooms so behave Albert Park in R18, otherwise you will be locked out at half time.

I would also like to mention the exciting abilities displayed by our token indigenous player Div Rajkumar. Div, who has improved his speed around the ground significantly was clearly noticeable on Tuesday Night training in his new aero-dynamic look that I’m not sure is legal, but I'm told he will use it this weekend against Richmond to his advantage.

I was not there at last weeks match but find the suggestion that St.Mary's would not drink from the same club house as BHN abhorrent.
As far cleaning up the rooms goes it would help if they were pleasant to begin with. One doesn't expect much but please standards need to be set BHN somewhere. Dead rat found in the latrine is not a laughing matter. However, I'm told that was more amusing than Nell up "result altering" decision making blissfully unaware he had another umpire out there to assist him. The only decent thing I can say about BHN is that the wonderful Jo Cox always does a spirited job running the boundary.

I enjoyed watching the match between UHSVU and Eltham last weekend. I agree with Hollywood’s thoughts on the game and saw a vastly different performance than the one I observed at their home game vs. the Saints. As an outsider their seemed to be a lot of infighting amongst the group obviously dissatisfied with their performance thus far. No doubt finals history will not repeat for Eltham, as they will be spurred on, as the alternative bares no worthwhile thought.

Finally, Ange as a Football Umpire, golly gee I almost feel out of my recliner. I have a feeling he would abuse himself more than make decisions. I would be saddened if the 39 year old didn't make it round one more time.

Go Dees!

Don't get this "result altering" quote Eca,as you state you were not there,I will tell you that if you had been there you would have seen the VAFA official, observing my partner and I,this bloke is a 20 yr umpire A and B grade grand finals to his credit and not backward in coming forward to tell us if we are stuffing up,if my partner or myself were having any "result altering" influence on the game I can assure you we would have heard about it loud and clear at the breaks,Don't mind you being critical but could you at least be there and not do it on hear say.And I think our observer might have just a touch more cred when it comes to looking at umps than whoever you are relying on.

Everyone knows umpiring is a c*** of a hard job so lay off the umps.

Players are result altering. Anyone drop a mark or shank a kick during the game?

I just edited this post. This really sh*** me. It is one thing to in the heat of the game lose your cool and exchange a few words with an ump, but letting them have it in the cold light of day on the forums? That's just unfair I think...

I tend to disagree. Umpiring can be a c**t of a job; but when it is, it is normally because of the players on the ground whinging & moaning about every decision, rahter than playing footy.

Umpires, whether they be ressies or VAFA appointed seniors, get a hell of a lot more decisions right than wrong. I'll guarantee that umpires get a lot less decisions wrong than players make mistakes during EVERY game.

Don't worry about it being a c**t of a job, worry about your own job.:thumbsu:

Sorry Nell up, totally take back the "result altering" quote understand how you were mystified. I was misguided was referring to the BHN reserve umpire whom I was told was an official one, He patrolled the entire field not allowing the SM umpire to leave the goal square, thus 90% hometown decisions were paid. Reserves were affected not seniors but which ultimately led to the report due to the frustration from the biased umpiring however, I don’t condone the reported players actions either.
 
Re: D4 Section Ammos

I think the St Mary's 2s must have just not been used to having a competent umpire officiating the game. This isn't a sleight against the St Mary's umpire (very nice fella) but you can tell the difference between an experienced umpire and someone from the club who is just helping out.

This guy has done the last 6 or 7 games for BHN reserves, it took the player's a while to adjust to his style of umpiring but now they have - fairly obvious that's the case based on the respective behaviour of the two sides on Saturday.

Then again, it wouldn't be like people from St Mary's to whinge about something, would it...

BHN Reserves umpire is very consistent which I believe is more important than being 'correct', especially at the reserves level. I bet St Marys wouldn't be moaning if they won.

Nelly is there any rule against players flopping or feigning injury?

Spot on Ruckmachine! Consistancy is king for the ressies. Our guys have gone close to losing it (I did and got warned by the VAFA against Sth Mornington......grrrrrr) but my boys kept their heads most of the time. I do feel for the ressies umps. If they pay a decision our way they are cheats and if they pay one against, they are over compensating. I rekon it would be well worth clubs paying impartial umps even in the ressies. I think the standard or the game would then lift and less shit would be hurled at the umps.
As for the BHN ressies ump, I didn't even notice him. (The best compliment you can give an ump!)
 
Re: D4 Section Ammos

Ruck"machine", maybe you should worry more about trying to get a kick and on winning this week. Or maybe you'd prefer to sit out the finals and just take pot shots at the teams that have worked harder than you to get there.

guru out!
 
Re: D4 Section Ammos

North Brunny are lucky enough to have a terrific two's umpire who's been doing it for 10 yrs or so, will not take any payment and just does it for fitness and enjoyment. He always keeps his cool, stays impartial and accurate - and I think he's probably too good an umpire for the standard.
