You can’t block someone’s run and jump whilst getting no where the ball yourself.

He could have jumped and went the spoil instead of staying on the ground.
Absolute rubbish. He was literally standing at the fall of the ball. He is permitted to hold his ground.

Pez took his eye off the ball and stepped towards the right which takes away the sole objective defence.
No, it doesn’t.

He neither:
A) held or blocked the opposition player;
B) unduly pushed or bumped him;
C) deliberately interfered with his arms;
D) made front-on contact; nor
E) made an unrealistic attempt

Perryman’s contact quite obviously falls under 18.5.3 of the rules

Whether rightly or wrongly, the scump saw it differently. Let it go.

I’m not disagreeing, the rules confuse me. Didn’t like the free kick however.

It looked to me Pez made good position, held his ground, glanced, and the Richmond player jumped well, get both hands on the ball and if he had of held it would have been a great mark. Apart from jumping out the way, can’t see Pez had any other option. If he had of jumped into Richmond player, that may have been more dangerous and possibly tunnel him.

Would prefer to see these kind of actions not paid as a free kick.

Yep, Pez held his position. It was the Tiger's player who chose to take an unrealistic flying leap & dropped the mark.
 
Well if it wasn't unrealistic, and he got both hands on it..how did Pez impede him?

He didn't hold onto it. And that wasn't Pez's doing.
Pez looked at him, then moved to the right into his path whilst getting no where near the ball in that contest himself. How did Pez not impede him?

It’s not my fault they don’t understand the rules.
I think they'd know the rules better than biased Tiger fans & many of the umpires out there officiating the game these days.

I had plenty of Tiger supporters around me who couldn't believe he was paid a free. It was almost mark of the year. But he dropped it.

Yes
Unbelievable. Crowds know when they see a tunnelling or shepherd-it was neither and an utterly atrocious decision. The duty of care lies with the idiot trying to jump on Perryman's head. Pez did nothing wrong. I always judge an umpire's decision by the "what would have been the reaction had he not blown his whistle?

There is no doubt no Richmond fan would have batted an eyelid had there been no whistle. The same applies to that atrocious "not 15" call- again against Perryman, who had just delivered a 25 metre pass. No play on call- literally zero reaction from the crowd. That barometer tells us that both decisions were incorrect.
