Calling an umpire a cheat

Chappy always likes to have a word to the umps. I'm sure they are well and truly used to getting a bit of lip from him. I daresay though that the coaching panel may just have a quiet word to him and let him know we dont really need that sort of thing.
 
happens on a weekly basis against Hawthorn. However, Geelong have had a pretty decent run with the umps, you must admit, and regardless, he should be fined at least.

Whatever champ.

Somehow it just feels better when we can kick a goal without a free and let the umps know where they can stick their frees.:thumbsu:
 
I understand Chapman's frustration. If you're playing in a close game and the ump pays two decisions against your team that you know are a load of horseshit, and you know that those sorts of free kicks would never, ever go your way it's only natural to think "This idiot's not umpiring, he's barracking."

But it's not good enough for a senior player to say that, even if he was only saying what 25,000 people were saying.

The umpire was told Chapman calling an umpire a "Cheat" is the lowest thing u can call an umpire and he said the umpire told Chapman that twice and told him its a "reportable offence. but im not sure if Chapman got reported or not.

Pointing the umpire down with a finger is fairly ordindary too, which the likes of Thomas (more than once), Lockyer and Cox I have seen do it this year.
 
So umpire Vozzo thinks the word cheat is 'the lowest, Paul'. Oooh PLEASE! Get a life you bird brain! And don't expect any sympathy from the hundreds of thousands of AFL supporters who regularly watch games with the same thought of the umpires in mind. What a sooky sooky la la! Go Paul!!
 
At Skilled Stadium in 2006, Chapman is believed to have turned to umpire Darren Goldspink and muttered words to the effect: "Why don't you look after both sides?"

It is alleged Goldspink bit back with: "Why don't you get a kick."

Well maybe if the umpires STFUed and learnt how to umpire properly the players wouldn't be calling them cheats.
