I agree its pretty over the top on most cases. Not helped by the constant bagging of umps by the commentators too. Dunstall for example seems to feel the need to pick apart every decision and argue why it didn't need to be paid.It is so irritating that people constantly criticise umpires because they make mistakes. Are they not aware of the fact that "they are HUMAN". They are not robots!! Humans DO make mistakes.
How often throughout a game does a player kick to the wrong option or not give a handpass when he should? These are mistakes which cost goals.
How often does a defender drag a ball under him when he knows he will get nabbed for holding the ball yet he does it anyway? This costs goals.
Why are these mistakes any different to an umpire making a mistake?
The Hawks Crows game was undeniably biased though.
