AFL Round 13

[mal]

All 5 teams that have won this round had a common denominator
On the ladder before the game
RI were behind AC
BL were behind WB
HW were behind GW
NM were behind WC
SK were behind GC

Pure dogshit.

Un-mic these clowns and pay some players who have played footy before to hold the whistle.

Another game decided by absolute Bullshit. Play on 100/100 times

Just saw the HTB decision in the Eagles game.

If firemen did there job as bad Ash Wednesday would still be burning.

Umpires are given a set of rules thar are very difficult for them

Congratulations to Johnny Howarth (#17) on his 100th game in the Syd v Gee game.

You might fluke one game at that level but you can’t fluke 100.

A good man and a good fieldy.

We need highlight the achievers of the umps, too !

Go back to two umpires. This is bullshit.
There's no more thuggery in the game so no need for two extra field umpires.
I'm certain now that 4 blokes do not interpret the rule exactly the same.
Two exact same game scenarios tonight ( player takes possession and tackled) one holding the ball the other play on.
These decisions a minute apart, different spots on the ground so had to be different umpires.
And again umpires have a major bearing on the result.

IMO putting the same 4 umpires together every week would help with consistency in decision making.

Couldn’t agree more, have teams of 4 that stay the same week in, week out. Develop cohesion, consistency & continuity.
Good teams umpiring well could do the Thursday night game & back up again for a Sunday game.

Catters looking like they mean business today, all over Sydney in the 1st

Cats first 6 goals
Swans next 5 goals

Both played brilliant football
Sydney look so much like the great Norwood teams of the early 1880s in the Sanfl

That 1884 incident would have made the Ramsgate look like child's play I imagine?
