Roast Umpires Yesterday

[Syphoncom]

Hmmm, let me think, I'll take that as a disagree.

I just think the umpiring is more free flowing, fair and consistent.

Don't necessarily agree or disagree.


I just think there's no point pointing out we're getting at least a fair game! Better them being pressured to be fair to us haha.


Having said that, our supporters are amazing at doing that anyway. Nothing better than that terrible decision on the weekend that I referred to earlier. I mean, I couldn't hear much because I was losing my shoot, but the general uproar followed by 5 minutes of boos was outstanding!

thought it was well umpired apart from a couple of judd holding the ball. gets away with murder.if you try to break through a pack get tackled and drop it then it's a free.

Hardly noticed them... guess that means they did their job and didn't adversely affect the game.

Best umpired game of the year.

Free flowing
Hardly any ruck infringements
Clear blatant frees to forwards paid
Consistency with 50 metres

Would have liked a few more holding the ball when players tried to beat a tackle then had it jarred free, but in the end, I'd prefer erring on the side of not paying a kick like that than making the wrong decision.

McLaren demotion is just reward for in general his over officious nature.

Chamberlain reads his publicity too much. Interesting who has won the AA ump in the past few years - no one knows him - Rosebury.

None of the McLaren-Chamberlain-McBurney rubbish. (McBurney not merely because he makes wrong over officious decisions...last year's GF against Milburn anyone... but also because miked up he is so annoying)
