Round thirteen thirteeeen

[tigerpie]

And now after missing a couple of blatant 50’s, they gift one the other way.

Been some baffling decisions and non decisions for both sides.

That have resulted in goals at one end and not paid at the other.

Hosie follows team rules and looks to give off instead of having a snap around the corner but turns it over. When will coaches back their players in to use their talent. Snaps are bread and butter for any half decent forward with goal sense.

We were talking about this tonight in the same context with umpires

It’s like they’re being over coached each week and that’s making them 2nd guess decisions or even worse through their match comma they’re getting told what to call.

Agreed. Its like, this week I want you to focus on this and forget, like the players, to be instinctive and pay the obvious.
Bloody frustrating game to watch.
I'd go so far as to say, that's the worst game I've seen in a long long time.

[LMA]

Yeah the umpiring is at an all time low but they don't stand a chance, they have been set up to fail.

Exactly. it makes it a shit load harder to umpire at community level.

Couldn't agree more!

Anyone who continuously bags the umpires has NFI. The AFL have created the havoc we now see on a game by game basis.

your correct but some of the umps have no idea. Where did we get Eleni from. She umpires like she is reading out of a book, loud ,clear, decisive but forgets to see what is actually happening on the field.

That's because of the training methods, there is so much focus on the process of making a decision they are forgetting about making the right decision.

I think you're being too kind, there are many very poor decisions being made.

One last night when Ruscoe kicked his 2nd goal I reckon, two hands straight in the back of his opponent, the umpire was in the perfect spot, play on!!

One last night where Daicos got spun 360° or more then used the front of his fist / knuckles to punch the ball from his hand went unrewarded.

[Spargo]

There were countless mistakes made last night, it was farcical in the end.
However, I can’t get over the Sat twilight game umpiring display. In a match where Hawthorn were less than a goal down with under 4 mins left, they never received a single free kick after halftime, not one! Port were given 14...
I couldn’t have cared less who won but that was as biased a performance I’ve seen this year from the umps.

No, Port earned 14.

Grundy hit front on just on the boundary. Pendles, one arm held in a marking contest.
There was just so many errors that even the commentators laughed when one of our forwards got hit high in a marking contest.
The standard is crap.

[Wedgie]

Good to see SPP got off, Dahlhaus up next.

[Wedgie]

Dahlhaus got off with a fine. The MRO had a good one this week, how does he keep his job?

Seriously where do they get these clueless flogs from that have no understanding or feel for the game ???

Unlike every single one of us on here

I was a bit surprised with Dalhaus getting off, only because he pinned the arm and Crouch's head hit the ground, probably lucky for him that Crouch got up immediately unfazed, therefore the correct call was made in the end.
