umpires

[geeza]

just been looking at the stats, we are well above the league average of 16.56 per game for frees against. we average 20.1 against per game. the next closest teams are sydeny with 19.7 (yes 30 free kicks was best on ground) and hawthorn with 19.7.

btw did anyone see that free kick given to buckley v ablett when buckley came on the ground........please explain says pauline hanson

WEll i think we know that the umpires do not like us one bit. The thing that annoys me is not always the free kicks that are given against but some very dodgy ones that are not given to us.

Hayden Kennedy, you should be shot!

(this is luke ablett v buckley if anybody is confused) syney v collingwood

i agree that obvious frees aren't paid to us..........eg playfair v adelaide, and the numerous times g ablett is held without the ball by taggers such as baker.

Yes.After that disgraceful free I decided to flick between the cricket and Moto GP on Foxtel.I wasn't watching anymore crap umpiring in that game [Sydney were screwed ].

I flicked over every 20 minutes just to get a footy score.

I had a look back at our free kick stats from all the matches this season.

There are only two or three where we actually received more than our opposition. That number in thirteen rounds is staggering and is indicative of our poor record with the free kicks.

Which games?

I guess that means we are more undisciplined than the other team then, better improve that.

I tried to watch some of that abortion but ended up running out of the room screaming after about 15 minutes. Sydney are the most hideous team to watch.........ever. For all time. Amen. And I did see that ridiculous free kick. I thought if you were playing an interstate team they get the run with the umpires. Not when Collingworm are playing apparently.

From memory... Melbourne Round 3 was one.
