The Booing is fine.
I have no issue with it what-so-ever.
The timing was inappropriate I think is the point.

The world will move on.

I think those comparing to Goodes or Gablett being booed will find they are both totally different scenarios.
Why does the timing matter? A boo is a boo.

That whole '90 finals series, oh my god, the "discussions" I had with my magpie following , dearly departed wife !!!
Gone are the days when the Bombers used to lose the elimination finals, Geelong would lose the prelims, and the Pies would lose the Grannys!
(sorry about your wife - must have been a lovely lady if she followed the Pies;))

Ones a genuine real champion of the game who will be spoken about 50-100 years from now whilst the other is just a great player who will quickly be forgotton after he retires.
No-ones immuned from being booed, really the better you are the more you are likely to be booed.

And yeah, you may forget Pendles, but i assure you the Collingwood Football Club won't, so far he has been loyal to 1 club.

I didn't tell you that umpires lost the game. I said that players can only control the ball if the umpires control the game in accordance with the rules. Your stats mean nothing in the context of yesterday's game.
Stats for the game mean nothing in the context of that game?
Please do you actually listen to yourself.
So the umpires didn't lose you the game - the Pies were ahead most of the day and in the majority of the stats. So we won?
Whats your complaint?

Good old white maggots for ever
They know how to ruin the game
Side after side they screw forever
That’s their claim to fame
Angry fans they’re all shouting
And the champions are booed
The game we love’s become a mystery
Another free to Collingwood!

Where it all began
AFL Club
Richmond
the call was for a hold. Not for taking eyes off the pill.
The umpire obviously saw the backman holding. Forward in best position to take mark, backman out of position,takes eyes off ball to engage the forward. Forward thinks If we start wresting here I’m a shoe in for a free...Wrestling ensues backman gets pinged... happens all the time. The umpire may have got it wrong but it’s pretty easy to see why he called it the way he did.

As for them 25 frees you got in the goal square against Richmond to our 9.. well I don’t know what was going on there. They were probably just cheating that day.

You really should have won that game, you were unlucky to lose by 7 goals
