Everytime brisbane play down here or in Adelaide we ALWAYS get Goldspink and he hates us, he never gives a free our way and thats where we lose most of our games (except for our bad skills in the 3rd quarter), is there a way not to get him for our games, or is it just the luck of the draw

I think he is a good umpire. Umpiring isn't easy you know. It's friggin hard.

I reckon we'll get him this week blackys. In the last derby the AFL put 3 fairly inexperienced umpires and they were unable to control the game very well. So according to articles I've read they are going to get at least 2 experienced umpires to control this weeks Derby. Plus I'd love to see Brett Rosebury get the derby in his home state

You can add Geelong to that list - he hates us to. A few years ago I used to write a letter every week to Bill Deller complaining about his decisions.
 
Every umpire hates one team. There are 32 umpires so you might get a match where 3 umpires hate your team and a match where no umpires hate your team. It's the luck of the draw.
 
Wow - I thought Goldspink bagging was unique to Freo Fans!

We always used to hate bloody Scroop and Vernon too. aaaargh - just remembering those guys p!sses me orf!!

Goldspink must hate every team - he's bloody useless.

As for Umpire Dore hating the Hawks, myself and an Eagles fan agreed during a game at the SCG that he is a practical joke played on all fans by the AFL. He can not possibly know the rules and continue to make the decisions he makes. During this game he made at least 10 decisions (both ways) that were so obviously wrong it defied belief. I don't think he hates anyone he is just incompetent.
 
BMD - LOL, yeah add that Dore bloke to my list.

Who was the ump that took the mark that time?
I can't remember who it was.
