Accoding to this he got reported for alleged forceful contact on Brett White

Was Rimmington reported for his late and high elbow to Weatherald's face? A cheap shot IMHO.

He shouldn't get any. Another great display of Richard Williams v Sturt.

Is there a club in the SANFL that does not have a grudge against Richard Williams.

Seems to be one that thinks being the umpire is the most important person on the field rather than being a person that facilitates the game

Haha!! I was thinking the same thing. Seems every club's supporters feels Williams has it in for them

You would be surprised at the amount of people on here who thinks he is a good umpire, me included.

I'll put my hand up as well.

Makes a few clangers, but apparently most people do.

Best umpire by far, cue wedgie....

Ditto. Adds a bit of colour too. Sort of like Bowden in the cricket, except he ain't a mincer... *

Doesn't mind getting yelled at either - actually he loves it!

I will give him my vote too............... best by miles

Geezuz, Imagine the winging if Sturt had lost.

Always happy to see Williams in charge of Glenelg games. Mile in front of Rowston or Pfeiffer.

I concur other poster's thoughts on Richard Williams' umpiring standard. He will always make a clanger here or there but otherwise he controls the game within the rules.


Had to chuckle when someone yelled out 'You are a di*khead Williams' when he was standing at the other end of Unley oval to where the play was

christ I sounded a bit like SP there

back on topic,

where and when did this said incident occur?

Did he just pay a free against Chambers?

sorry Ian, I havent seen much whinging about the umps when we have lost, actually havent seen much complaining at all on here from anyone regardless who they support.

even wedgie said that north got a good ride from the umps on Monday and he is as unbiased as they come.

Port Magpies? Scott Hodges free kick in 96

Eehh humm, Jimmy we played yesterday being Monday...you might want to fix that before some smart a$%# has a dip at you.

p.s. I wasn't having a whinge, purely an observation. I was with a North mate yesterday and even he admitted the umpiring was a disgrace, about on par with North's performance.

I hate Glenelg

Back on topic - He got one game.

Umpiring was terrible Monday and in favour of North considering we kicked 7 goals from free kicks.

Yep, agreed with most hes easily the best umpire. The fact that Scharples got a game justifies his decision although personally I didnt think it was even worth a free kick let alone a game!!!
