SANFL umpiring

[Troopsy]

I know the SANFL umps are deplorable but not sure they can blamed for Karl's kicking efficiency.

Whoops that was embarrassing

To be on topic, SANFL umpiring is awful and the sooner we leave the better.

Let's not forget Hugh Jackson was knocked out by a clearly high bump. He has missed 2 games now, and not only did no free get paid as Hugh laid on the ground grasping his head with the Eagles running away, but additionally the Eagles player wasn't even suspended.

Absolutely disgusting.

It's not that I think the umpires even consciously do it, but the commentators on SANFL games, the umps, everyone just seems subconsciously so against us and want the non AFL team to get up, that they just literally ignore frees to us. They just don't want to see them and they just don't pay them. We only get the real obvious ones, we can have clear HTBs missed, high tackles ignored, clear pushes ignored, and the most common one we cop which is the constant scragging of our players, then meanwhile they'll pluck some slight and soft interference out of nowhere for the opposition.

It's beyond unfair, and actually one of the main reasons I wish we were good enough to just stick it up the SANFL and win the whole damn thing.

Yep. The umpiring discrepancy is even bigger than the free kicks suggest because the opposition go even harder knowing that they are going to get more leeway and STILL give away 10 less frees.

It is unbelievable that Bryce's comments haven't been picked up anywhere else in the media.
