He intentionally climbed the post so unless the post is made if concrete, naturally shaking would ensue

It is simply not good enough.
At the end of the day, the umpire deliberately chose not to pay a blatantly obvious free kick which he witnessed, instead choosing to “warn” the player twice. It is irrelevant that maybe Sydney were the better team on the night, countless teams lose during the season when they’ve outplayed their opponents. The fact of it is, this umpire mistake cost Essendon the match.

And if lost by a kick could we blame the one I mentioned above?

I might have tipped the swans!
Everything in it, get everyone back to the SCG this morning and let Essendon take the kick from the goal line...

I definitely picked the Bummers.

So you’re condoning cheating or attempted cheating if it’s over looked by the officials?

Firstly the swans didn’t cheat. And in no way have I condoned it.
It wasn’t called. In no way is that the swans fault.

And north can get ****

Maybe you haven’t condoned it but you’ve done nothing but try and deflect it.

The swans didn’t cheat but one of their players tried to and should have been penalised.

Agreed - north can get ****

I know real hard contested footy is pretty foreign to your club, but that doesn’t make that style boring imo
