Thomas said we were a bit stiff about 5 times and those other c*** kept cutting him off. Tipping he was about to say that the ****** maggots were a disgrace and should have been hanged at the farken Old Melbourne Gaol!!

Wow, 4 pages of umpire talk, I am glad the game wasn't on tv in WA!

Re: Maggots
Neither were as bad as Dempsey being pinged for holding the ball against Sydney last year when no one even tackled him. He picked up the ball and ran through a pack without being tackled, maybe Jude Bolton got a hand on him and they paid him a free kick for his toughness...Bomber_Fan wrote: Cmon guys the umpires are being consistent at least. I have seen this decision paid twice in the last couple of years and only against Essendon players. Think it was Lonergan last time, getting pinned by three players and being dragged over the line. The umpires paid a free kick for holding the ball against him. Didn't see the game but surely it can't have been as bad as that one.

That one gets paid a bit and I think it's BS - once the ball is out of bounds, the play is stopped.BenDoolan wrote:For the millisecond that he was in play?robrulz5 wrote:Jazz_84 wrote:

I thought the umpire called holding the ball for that one.
What I don't get is sometimes they pay it for holding the ball, but I'm sure I've seen on TV times when the field umpire asks the boundary ump who blew their whistle first and if the boundary umpire says he did, they throw it in. Which implies to me that once the ball is out of bounds there can be no holding the ball free paid. But sometimes it is. WTF?

Re: Maggots
I remember the horror of that particular decision distinctly. My other half follows the Swans - to do with being a pommie immigrant that live in Sydney for 25 years - so we were watching the game as you do. I distinctly remember screaming at the TV that you actually have to get tackled to get pinged for holding the ball. He evaded 3, none laid a hand on him and he was still pinged. Just more nonsense that seems to dog week in week out year in year out.robrulz5 wrote:Neither were as bad as Dempsey being pinged for holding the ball against Sydney last year when no one even tackled him.

Re: Maggots
Further to what I said here, apparently (according to my bro) Geishen admitted this holding the ball decision was incorrect because it was out of bounds first.j-mac31 wrote:That one gets paid a bit and I think it's BS - once the ball is out of bounds, the play is stopped.BenDoolan wrote:For the millisecond that he was in play?robrulz5 wrote:

Re: Maggots
No - but they are meant to be the best, most elite decision makers going around ... not of the quality of some dad umpiring the little tackkers at Auskick on Saturday morning."The umpire doesn't have the advantage of replay, slow motion or things like that but when we went back there were two errors, we're disappointed about that but like all human beings, the umpires make errors sometimes."

Re: Maggots
Having just watched the 8 decisions judgement from Geischan ... I'll wear the Stanton one, but the others were shit.
What was fascinating was the toad justifying a 50 M for Hurley's slightly late head high on Firrito when it should have been a downfield anyway but having the gall to say that the hit on Hocking 1.4 seconds after he kicked it (with elbows raised by the in the air tackler who jumped after Hocking kicked) did not warrant a free...
pure and unadulterated shit.
Now just watch us get soft frees in a game where we are being pummbled anyway as an even up.

Re: Maggots
No they'll even it up on Friday night and give us a dream run against the Hawks because us beating the Hawks can be explained by us refinding our early season form or Hawthorn simply having two many players injured and suspended blah blah, to distract from another inevitably shit, if not entirely corrupt umpiring performance.s'dreams wrote:Having just watched the 8 decisions judgement from Geischan ...

ABSOLUTE joke given 99% of head high free kicks are accidental, how that can't be a free kick is a joke beyond beliefs'dreams wrote:but having the gall to say that the hit on Hocking 1.4 seconds after he kicked it (with elbows raised by the in the air tackler who jumped after Hocking kicked) did not warrant a free...

time for Hocking to do exactly the same thing then, hopefully on Thomas the weak c***
