How crap were these umpires in the last quarter? St Kilda couldn't get the easy frees that Hawthorn were getting. Ridiculous. That young umpire was rubbish
What also impressed and depressed equally was how good their clearance setups are, some very clean reflex handballing and the outlet player got good mileage on his kicks.
I only watched the last 1/4 of Hawks v Saints but wow. That umpiring. Way to gift a game. Gotta feel bad for the Saints - that loss would've been absolutely heartbreaking after the massive effort they were putting in.
Left the ball and ground to get him as well, minimum 4-5 weeks you would think. Deserves more but can't see it happening. Having a bit of a mental blank on the longest suspension I have seen get handed out, think it was Vickery on Cox a few years back though.
