Sorry to invade your board but I was at the ground and thats exactly what happened (at least in my block). We booed once the replay came on the big screen cos it looked like an honest contest with accidental contact - the decision was booed not Jobe. We didnt want to give a free kick away
I for one would be disgusted if any Eagles fans booed a guy for going in hard and coping a hit. Jobe is a top player and well respected around the league.
On the umpires, i think most supporters tend to be a tad biased towards their team, I know I am and have seen some shocking umpiring efforts against us this year.....
Sat was not one of those occassions though.... That was one of the few times when I thought WE had paid off the umpires! Several easy goals straight from bad decisions, the type of thing that i hate.. so i understand how some of you guys feel. Unfortunately the umps have ruined a lot of games thru the whole season.
All the best for the finals, hope the umps improve for you (just not if we play you again in September) ;-)
