teamwork wrote:If Shane Mitchell is as bad as everyone is saying week in week out then surley the club will sack him!!! ASAP (Just please give him 2 more weeks so he can play against us) He has always been and always will be a pest, the bays are in trouble as everyone has said. Players are pulling the pin everyweek from what I am hearing.
On another note speaking with Gordy Tonkin at our game saturday he said popey was umpiring his first GSFL A grade game I think it was the Mclaren game?? If so what do all you Mclaren guys think of the job he done?
I am hearing very good reports on his umpiring, could we see him set a example for other past players and see them get into umpiring also??
Teamwork, Popey did umpire us on the weekend and did a great job i thought. Very consistant with his calls. He lets alot of stuff go, all that small stuff that other umpires usually call sometimes and then not others(usually in front of goal when they do

). I think it makes a
better contest for both teams involved when they are not pinged for soft free kicks.
Heres a good question, How many times have you seen deliberate out of bounds called lately?
Last week there were a few times when the ball was pushed towards the boundary and a throw in was the result every time. On Saturday, we had one where our player was under the pump, let the ball go over and he got pinged and a goal was the result

. It was'nt Popey by the way.
