Umpires

[scottywiper]

Donlon McBurney and Jeffery.
Local favourite Dean Margetts the emergency. Phew.
I hope the Giesch doesn't pull a Laidley last-minute change...

 

[shinboner spiggs]

mcburney, the amount of times i have sworn at that bloke...
but as long as they dont pull a random rule to enforce ie deliberate, tunnelling, sliding then im fine with them being incompetent

I'll give this thread till about half way through Sundays game before it gets padlocked, if it makes that far. I'm not worried about the umps, we have greater concerns elsewhere.

Believe 1 of the umpires could be closely related to Mr Free kick from the Eagles here is a recent photo of him

I'll snot him if he calls me Big Nose again

i will definately be muting the sound and synchronising the radio coverage commentary,listening to that desert headed windbag giving a running commentary/explanation of his ? decisions/and general instructions to players on what they can/cannot do,or letting them know he is watching them,is a migraine waiting to happen,just praying that none of those umpires named do a hammy and activate margetts the sub,he would be the most pro WA umpire going around,anyways,good luck rooboys,kick some ducker arse

Not sure how people do this. It's out of sync now with the digital tv's.

Goldy doesn't play dirty or smart.
He doesn't get any frees either.

 

[NarniMagic]

In all seriousness, is there a chance that maybe, JUST MAYBE, the umps will be more lenient than usual seeing as it's... you know... a final?!

Probably not this week........but they won't get their accustomed free ride if they're playing at the G later in the month.


(Let's hope that doesn't eventuate!)

Scotty was on Before the Game. It ain't gonna happen. TG gonna ruck as normal.
