They have been bad all year but today was actually the worst I’ve seen.
Ellie needs to go. She actually can’t umpire.
And number 24 terrible

Every single supporter around me knew Eleni hates our guts.
She dogs us every time.

Great thread!
They didn’t have their best outing today...

Umpires....let's just say they get worse by the week.
I don't understand why!
And it's not just Carlton that cops it but I'd like to see a game where we got 4 goals from s**t free kicks.

Is that umpire number 34 with the long hair?
I will agree that the umpires were inconsistent today, what they do is out of our control, it is how we react. Case in point - Newman's melt down today. when we get to be a good side, what they do will mostly be irrelevant.

But we’re not yet. And it isn’t.
Players rarely get so animated. Frustration at their own misunderstanding of the rules, maybe. I’ve been wondering about our coaching/playing to the rules.
That said, I agree, the influence is reducing per game. And, if giving away free kicks and playing on the edge translates to victories then I think we can stomach that.
Apparently she was proposed to by a boundary umpire after the game - she said yes - another wrong decision she’s made today.
One knows the standard of umpiring has dropped significantly when #34 is not the worst practitioner on the day. #'s 8 and 24 seemed to delight in the howls of the Blue Baggers as they paid shocker after shocker. The worst were the free paid for htb against "the boy wonder" just out from their goal. clearly high, clearly no prior opp, but paid the other way, and the non decision when the adelaide clown was holding Jones in the square.
Just either mind numbingly bad umpiring or devilishly corrupt attempting to keep the Ravens in the game. You be the judge

2nd half a bit grr on the umpiring but seeing the proposal after the game is so wholesome. Would I be saying that had we lost... who knows... congrats to Eleni and Dillon.
I was at the game - umpiring was not nearly as bad as the crowd seemed to think.
A couple of bad calls but that’s to be expected. We got plenty our way as well.

Gil Mclachlan was heard to remark today how satisfying it is that the average age of the AFL supporter is trending younger all the time.
