Roksman did the analysis on twitter and also posts here.

Every other side gives away (I think) 2 standard deviations less than their average free kicks when they play us. Basically, they play a way cleaner game against us and then will revert to the mean the very next game.

Oppo supporters and media are useless. Every argument raised by them is garbage:
  • Their players play on the edge: We've turned over just about our whole list.
  • It's the way they play: We changed coach, gamestyle, players etc. Doesn't matter if we're 1st or 18th, same result.
  • Dimma factor: At Gold Coast they're top of the league in free kick differential.
  • You just give away more: In general we don't care about what we give away, we care about what isn't received. Roksman's analysis proves that.
Take Lynch for example. Playing the same position and way his entire career.
  • At Gold Coast he averaged 1.13 frees for per game and 1.18 frees against per game.
  • At Richmond he averages 1.15 frees for per game and 1.39 frees against per game.
He's receiving basically the same amount despite a lot more ball coming his way playing in a much better team but is giving away more despite playing against the same defenders.

Lynch is a microcosm of the issue. From 2017 to now, every variable has changed except the jumper, however the result is the same. If that's not bias then I don't know what is.
Got a link to this Roksman analysis?

Devils advocate, reckon Rioli got done because he bounced it like a dumb campaigner while being tackled which was htb before the tackle slipped.

Why the **** did he bounce it?

The Newcombe non call is absurd. Better be on Razor Rays segment tonight.
 
boycottining one full game is the only way guys , force the cfl to take action . imagine the headlines
there is not supporters group like other codes.

Like who runs the cheer squad? who are they?

Liverpool FC has the Spirit of Shankley and other groups that are very vocal when the club F's up

theres an afl fans association but the cfl just probably laugh at them while they sip french champagne

Headlines would back fire and just read:

Tigers fans have had a gutful and have finally jumped off the bandwagon in true fair weather style.

Karen Cornes would be comparing our crowds to Norths.

We would need the club to open up punt road and do a grand final style set up where fans can watch from our home base.

(would have to wait until its been built again though lol)

a hawforn fan on twitter reckons its their turn to get the rub of the green .. theyre on top of the free kick ladder by far

wasnt aware they rotate it

still waiting for our turn after about 100 years
 
Seriously I would like to know what the club is doing about this biased umpiring. Has someone put together a montage of examples like the Newcombe/Hopper no free/free and gone to the AFL to ask for a please explain on the discrepancies.

Whilst I don't expect our team to win the free kick count every week I do expect that we are umpired in a consistent, unbiased manner and rule interpretations are the same for the competing teams.

As an interstate member, I am getting frustrated by this issue and have at times questioned the point of being member and even following the code.

😂 umpirewood game gets talked about with umpire decisions on afl 360 with the dwarf ex ump razor Ray , at least he said Rioli should have got a free for a trip
Rioli had no chance of getting a free, he plays for Richmond..

I am convinced the whistle has been modified to only blow against the Tigers..
 
Palestine badly need FREES too. Been getting screwed by the umps
