Things are good, we've had a win in rd 1 but got robbed by home town umpiring over in Perth

Sure you did.

and have clearly shown we have the ability to go with any team in the competition.

Sure you do.

Sure you did.
Sure you do.

Free kick count of 34 to 20 for WC with many dubious free kicks paid against us and obvious free kicks to us missed.

Beat Sydney and West Coast in 2006 and already shown in 2007 that we can match it with a side labelled premiership favourite on their home turf.

collingwood are going to get smashed

2 goals... major smashing!

Free kicks wc 28 Coll 15. I did feel a great sense of injustice with the umpiring.

Free kick count is NEVER meant to be even. That shouldn't be an argument in whether a game is "fair". All it means is one team infringed more than other. What is important however is whether the umpires made the correct call. On many occasions where they replayed the incidents, they were clearly wrong and as a result cost us goals.

The free kick count was actually WCE 28 Collingwood 15.

What pro said is right though. Still I think out of the 15 free kicks we got, 10 of them were there, out of WCEs 28, 8 of them were there. WCE maybe could of got a free kick in one or two situations when they didn't while we couldn't buy a holding the ball decision if we had Buffet's money.

My stats of 34/20 were from the Age, typically a more reliable source than the Hearld Sun.

The umpiring was clearly off and went against Collingwood on the night.

Well you can do this and you might do that, and the umpires this and a free kick that. You lost.

We won.

You are the reigning premiers and the laughing stock of the AFL. It is called a phyric victory. Even if you win 3 more grannies, 06=tainted. Sorry, your players, not anyone elses.
