Back to the original system where the Captains decided the frees... would probably be better actually

we were penalised because we run to space/contests, blooze standing around with thumbs up their arses were never in position to give one away

The AFL wouldn't have backtracked so quickly if the result of the game was different. Someone needs to be accountable, ump no 3 should be banished to bush permanently.

Why should the bush have to put up with the campaigner ?

Still reckon we should’ve put Jack on one of them. Jack Graham that is.

It’s a freakin joke. Once Hardwick put them on notice to be consistent they shit themselves and have to admit they were wrong.
We were going nuts at the ground, could only assume someone ran over the mark. The protected zone looks much closer on TV. Live they were nowhere near the kicker and not disrupting in any way.

It’s a ****ing disgrace. That a multiibillion competition is run by amateurs,shows where we are in world sport.

Rompingwingins was talkin about the amateur judges during the Winter Olympics , at least they are consistent not like his brothers boys.

Similar happened to us last year, I think they changed a rule interpretation the following week too after we got reamed by the umps, could have been holding the ball not sure.

It's's almost becoming a disadvantage playing the first game because you just don't know which rule the umps are going to interpret differently and it could be the difference between the result, same for both teams I guess.

Hardwick quite clever in the presser by saying he had no problem with the interpretation but expected consistency moving forward, AFL having no choice but to come out and admit liability.

Well at least we will hopefully have better umpiring next weekend.
Happy the umps got put on notice.

Actually love how Hardwick handled it - because the way he commented kept him out of trouble and just further highlighted the umpires inadequacies, especially now that he AFL have come out with this.

 

[Dunger]

We would have been totally screwed if Curtis the boy was umpiring

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Leigh ****ing Fisher , shit footballer , worst umpire.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

The AFL got it wrong on the 10 meter zone...Welllll that's a relief!

 

[johnno77]

There is always some kind of weird focus on something at the start of a season. If that's the case, then do it all the way through the pre-season as well. Fair dinkum, it's not rocket science. I didn't see these frees being paid then.

And by the AFL coming out and saying 2 were wrong and one was 'marginal' what they're really saying is 3 were definitely wrong and the others were probably borderline wrong as well.

It's a tough job being an ump. Hopefully that's the worst we get reamed for the season.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

How about they were all wrong!

 

[This Is Anfield]

Didn't watch last night... any encroachment 50's?

 

[Charlie Pannam]

Surely if there was any uncertainty in relation to the 10 meter zone the muppets should have taken the conservative approach and not payed the free kick, a bit like giving the batsman the benefit of doubt in cricket.

 

[TigerImposter]

All based around gambling. This is why I don’t bet on footy. Richmond $2 for over 30 points looked a moral and easy pickings until the umps came along.

 

[johnno77]

Didnt watch the whole game. Maybe a half and I saw one that was questionable. Not sure how many more there were.
Switched the tv on and the last quarter of our game is on. The Cotchin 50 was utter garbage

 

[DoItForCaptBlood]

Didn't watch last night... any encroachment 50's?

Yes. One paid where the player was warned 2x not to come through and got pinged because he did. But bit of a joke considering it was boundary side and close to goal. Two other times players did exactly what our guys did and it was play on.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

I reckon this 10 meter zone penalty has Scott's(From Kitty Litter Park) fingerprints all over it...
Must have complained bitterly...long and hard to the AFL about the tigers running back to defend...too fast for his hacks to keep up...
And that we were running to close to the man on the mark whilst doing it and cutting down oppo options!

Good point. Probably confirms that they were instructed to enforce the rule hard.
