Should be a very competitive contest. Good chance for the Sharks to break their duck, but they need to clean up their ball use.

Not sure everyone’s thoughts but both teams were getting some interesting decisions by the umpire. The one that stood out was a Goodies player took a mark it wasn’t paid then the PAOC player touched the Goodies player and the umpire called HTB. I’m all for what the league is doing but if he umpires lower his safety would be in question because what he was doing was calling really bad decisions and players and supporters were getting really frustrated.

Could you please explain "inclusive" umpire? I have seen a couple of games this year and feel the umpiring has been pretty good. I think we forget quickly how difficult umpiring is there are always going to be decisions made that we don't agree with but overall the game seems to be flowing better which in time should lead to less decisions needing to be made.

Apparently there were 71 free kicks paid in that game. When you consider its a flat 22 mins per quarter, its basically a free kick every minute the ball is in play.

Good on him for having a go, but perhaps a little whistle happy for the higher grades.

Jesus, I've got halfway through the 2nd quarter of a game and thought "shit, you haven't paid a free yet".

I thought we were going to get a 90 to 180 degree shift from what we were getting in the last couple of years but it seems we have gone a complete 360 degrees and ended up with an interpretation that is even harsher than the AFL.
We've gone from players being given too much prior opportunity to virtually none, and some of the so called "dragging the ball back ins" and "not making enough effort to release the ball" has been too severe on the player who has shown the most intent and courage to take possession of the loose ball in the first place. I will at least admit the umpires are applying things fairly consistently from week to week but it is far too much of a change from one season to the next in my opinion.
