If a Category “A” report is made by a field umpire the player shall be sent from the playing field for a minimum of ten (10) minutes or greater up to the maximum of the remainder of such match as determined by the reporting field umpire. The reporting umpire shall display a red card indicating that
a player has been reported for a Category “A” Offence. The field umpire shall escort the reported player from the field and inform the Interchange Steward of the details of the Category “A” report and the time imposed. The player may be replaced after ten (10) minutes of playing time.

Says MAY BE replaced that can create doubt whether actually can or can't.

There's no doubt there at all. It's pretty clear cut. The player "may" be replaced. Where is there any confusion? This is the opposite of saying the player "may not" be replaced.

MAY = Black, MAY NOT = White. No grey

Well I hope the Brahma Lodge Bgrade umpire reads this after sending off a young lad in the 1st quarter against us and we play with 17 for almost the whole game. Dead set Cheat.

FC, how are you able to coherently post? Are you not at Mad Monday?

I assume you're talking to me?

If so, I'm not a player.

As such, Mad Monday is, and should be, the domain of the players and coaching staff.

b grade umpires should never be allowed to send someone off for the whole game with out replacement unfortunately there are reserve umpires who are very bias and it causes trouble all the time hence why the rule needs to be changed to a set punishment without discretion !

Great battle on Saturday, I know Salisbury are bleeding but they had a great year and went up. The Kilburn boys were fantastic and never gave up. 4 Come from behind wins in the last 5 games, (Salisbury twice and North Haven amongst them) says plenty of our team.

but are they going up?

The grey area is allowing umpires to do this can create bias its either a yellow off for 10 can replace or a red off for the game can replace after 10 mins
The whole leave it up to the umpires is rubbish they can barely call the game right let alone have the right to pick and choose if a player can or cant be replaced !

Sigh......please take it as ABSOLUTE FACT

Yellow card - player off for ten minutes and CAN BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY

Red Card - player is reported and sent off for a minimum of 10 minutes, or up to the rest of the game (at the umpires discretion) They are allowed to be replaced after 10 minutes - not "maybe" - but they will be allowed to - no grey area, it is clear.

If a team has not sought to replace them after 10 minutes - that's their own fault.

You had two highly experienced Division 1 Umpires (both have done Div 1 GF's) - so they would have done exactly the right procedure.

And Wonder Kid - saying the umpires can barely call the game right.........you are a knob.

how much div 4 have u watched this year mate I call it how I see it bud obviously your an umpire and cant handle being told the standard of umpiring is dropping every year. no need to name calling im allowed to have my opinion mate

[wonder_kid]

Eloquently put.......there is no comeback to your undeniably clever retort.

Being an umpire is the worst gig in footy but a standard should still be expected of every umpire at any level of a grade footy

this is so true... age is the biggest problem the league does not have enough young umpires and rely so much on 50 year old plus umpires to do A grade its only gonna get worse
