Props to the umpires

[bzparkes]

I think these blokes are seriously underappreciated by us fans. People scream and shout 'conspiracy' and 'cheats' yet the boys (and girls) in green still roll up every week to keep our great game going.

Even though WCE are getting reamed by the umps this season (yes, you may be surprised to know that we have the least frees paid for any team), I still think we should celebrate the contribution and sacrifices they make, week in week out, so us as fans and watch and enjoy.

3 cheers for the umps!

Oh, and if you're wondering what their names are to familiarise yourselves a bit better with them, ask a Freo fan. They know them all off by heart

Take this shit to the mainbored kid, here one of the few things we can agree on is that umpires are gonadless fly larvae.

We’d be 15th if they knew how to umpire.

Is there any chance you might "shower" occasionally with your cousin?

No at all, the umps have favoured us the least of any team this year.

Try to keep up.

OK so you didn't watch the Carlscum game

Sure did.

Umps under a lot of pressure with COVID so bound to make a few mistakes. The YEO HTB in particular which lead directly to a Carlton goal was an absolute howler but you don't see me complaining.

Only empathy here.

I give full props to the umpires for keeping us in the game against Port, I particularly liked it when Martin shoved his opponent into Riewoldt and we got a free kick and goal from it

Not at all. I think they should be lauded with all the adversity they face.

Your Dad is Dean Margettes isn’t he?

That would explain a lot.

My dad's dead, so no.

 

[Stronzo]

My dad's dead, so no.

Oh, sorry about that.

Was he an umpire when he was alive?

 

[bzparkes]

No, he was a plasterer if you really must know.
