Since when did AFL umps turn into NBA refs...

 

[catpremier 07]

Haha they've gone to far with it. Didn't even abuse the umpire

 

[amazingjoshy]

If that's 50 it will fast become unwatchable

 

[00Stinger]

So a player getting frustrated with himself is now 50 metres?

I seriously can't work that one out

Reduce the penalty to 25m from 50m

 

[Tap Tap Tapperoo]

wtf lol. If this is the standard for 50s we are in for an interesting season.

 

[srobbo]

Please explain how that was 50? Petracca didn’t even look at the ump ffs.

 

[Fitzey]

If the umpires give a 50 for that all year people aren’t going to watch the game. The sport is as soft as ballet, officially

 

[Milanista28]

Worst rule ever

 

[ams4crows]

That's a ridiculous 50, he wasn't even looking at the umpire or addressing him, he's allowed to be angry with himself for giving away a free.

Umps need to harden up to, this has gone straight to a power trip.

 

[XhazzafootyX]

Ah yes the cycle begins.

Afl tell umpires to crack down on certain rule.

Umpires crack down on said rule.

Fans kick up fuss about it. Creates controversy.

Afl media talk about it for weeks after. Creates content

What'd he say?

 

[scoman]

Yeah that's crap I'm afraid. Can't penalise a player from reacting to what they think is a poor decision. Petracca didn't do anything wrong there.

 

[Munga]

I think I'll sit out this season, folks. Not watching this tripe

 

[Brend81]

Geez the AFL Need to clean this one up will destroy the game

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

**** me what joke.

the afl have ****ed the season before it has even started with this new abusing the umpire rule

 

[ams4crows]

And it'll make easy for umpires to manipulate that interpretation against teams they dislike or players they dislike

See you tomorrow night.

 

[thedank]

8x 50s to 0x is incredible, has such a thing happened before? I've not seen a crucifixion like this in a long time

 

[Milanista28]

Soon umpires will be allowed to penalise the fans for being mean

 

[RAPPA]

Garbage adjudication. There’s a difference between players showing emotion and remonstrating. A 50m penalty is too severe.

 

[scoman]

Maybe we should retire Mitch Robbo and Dayne Zorko?

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

All the best

 

[Fitzey]

On second thought, It’s a preseason game against the Blues, the umpires are entitled to give their fans as much hope as possible.

Good. Less idiot fans hurling abuse coz they refuse to learn the rules.
