Umpiring in the Grand Final...

[Randomizor]

Next time your team has an 18 ; 4 free kick count at three quarter time, get back to me.

Has happened before. Will happen again. We played a game where we only got 4 frees for the whole game. Guess what? We still won it. The better team will always win.

How about a bit of grace in victory? These Bulldogs supporters strutting around are already getting annoying and it's still October.
Long off-season ahead....

You win one flag in 60 years or some s**t and now you bag us for making it to prelims only.
Ok then....better hope you don't get a premiership hangover.

OK, a bit of grace from the losing side wouldn't go astray either. A month after the GF we are still talking about the bloody umpiring and whinges from swans supporters. We have now beaten that mob 3 times in a row, twice up there. Maybe we r just better than them right now? Maybe?.

Our club and supporters have put up with a lot of poor years, similar to the first 50 odd years of your club's life in the then VFL so we will enjoy and celebrate probably a bit longer than a more successful club and some of us will try to balance the ledger with the belittling remarks we've copped over the years - merger, "handouts", small, tragic, irrelevant, chokers, Tom Boyd trade, the asterisks, bad and losing culture. Geez, even copped it when Bob was asked up on the Dias on GF day.

Lol,the lack of grace has come from the losing,salty swans supporters who are still sooking it up with some help from North and Saints fans who are all keeping threads like this going.

There were two umpiring records set in the dog's favour in a game that was only a few points apart with seven minutes to go. Do you feel that's not worth discussing?

It's already been discussed...and discussed again.

 

[Kummerspeck]

This is the thread specifically for it. If the idea that the dogs were the beneficiaries of some pretty huge umpiring discrepancies in a 3 point game with around a third of a quarter to go upsets you, why are you in a thread dedicated to discussing it?

About how the last shred of relevance your mob had disappeared into Kelli Stevens' lady garden.

GOLD!

People don't seem to care much only swans supporters because everyone wanted the fairy tale.

Ill say it again though...can u imagine if it was Hawthorn that got the dogs treatment in the gf... there would be a national out cry.

Those discrepancies just show to me that your team is poorly coached. Not giving away free kicks is a skill, all year we have proven that we give away the least, why wouldn't that trend continue in finals?

Yes, Longmire is a terrible coach. That's the reason the Swans got one free kick in two and a half quarters. Great insight.

Not terrible, just inferior

Dogs too good sook. That's all that matters. Keep whinging and making excuses, it is hilarious. You have blown it. Suffer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Elite Master]

Yep you can hear about how your pissant club went from 9-0 to just making up the numbers.

About how your pissant club has done nothing this millennium, much less in an 18 team competition, and is now facing a long rebuild with no ******* talent to build on.

About how your pissant club sees winning a final or two as some badge of honour.

About how the last shred of relevance your mob had disappeared into Kelli Stevens' lady garden. The day Carey followed her into Glenn archer's toilet was the day north stopped mattering.

Dogs premiers 2016. Get it up ya

So much venom. Stop obsessing over us and just enjoy the flag.

 

[Bulldogs Legend]

I think you're a little confused.

Sounded pretty clear to me

 

[Bulldogs Legend]

My pleasure!
AFL Laws of the game (2016)
Rule 15.4.5 (a) : "A Player makes prohibited contact if they make contact or attempt to make contact with an opposition player in a manner likely to cause injury - (i) above the shoulders
(ii) BELOW THE KNEES

Now, when you clearly understand that and go revisit the video of the Hanneberry incident...... say "sorry umpires, I got that wrong!"

Yes I watched it and what do you know we won!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Bulldogs Legend]

Next time your team has an 18 ; 4 free kick count at three quarter time, get back to me.

Next time you team wins a GF get back to us!!!!

Hey Swans supporters,

This was the last play of your first flag in 72 years. The margin was less than a goal. And you complain about umpiring in a GF.

 

[Draft Pick]

did u watch the crows dogs game earlier in the year? with even umpiring who do you think would have won

What do you mean by even umpiring ?

Having an even free kick count for the hell of it.

Hey Einstein its not about 1 isolated incident, its about the ones across all 4 quarters and how the game was umpired to favour the bulldogs.

If only the game was umpired like that 2005 GF.

 

[BigBertO]

Look at you little people, 1 flag and you all think you have a right to act like hawk supporters.

I guess they don't teach humility and grace in public high schools.

Facts are an umpiring decision won the flag for the Swans in 05, wheres the Dogs monstered the Swans in the 16 GF and the scoreboard flattered the Swans.

Wooo, now you have really revealed yourself.

What are these two umpiring records you speak of ? Not being a smart ass, just generally interested. Furthermore, do you have a link to these offical records ?
