I doubt it, highly doubt it.
I wouldn't think so, pretty much from what I have seen (albeit at a far lower level) the umps go into their rooms at the end of the game and as they are cooling down, having a drink etc they discuss best players, and votes. Decisions made before any stats would be available. At this level I would suggest the umps room would be impervious to outsiders bringing that type of information in to them....
its not as if they wouldnt have the afl app on their phones though.
"geez swanny was everywhere tonight, i wonder how many he got in the end"
as if they wouldnt look
That's a fair point B Mac, I hadn't considered that possibility at all.....so while they may be in a secure room, they can access the stats information if they choose to.... We all know stats on there own can be misleading. Surely being in the middle with the players they can see those blokes who have the most influence on the game. Sometimes with less stats, but there actions are "brilliant"... that is the criteria is it not?
