Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 17 - Saints v Swans Sun July 7th 3:20pm AEST (Marvel)

[Ads734]

They cant just hang off Heeney constantly when he is forward, been holding him all day

Melican smashed owens in the head but nothing. Sydney hang on the best. Bunch of dirty defenders been doing it for years.

 

[Ice-Wolf]

What was his objective? I hate the rule but his objective was putting it out. That’s deliberate. I don’t love the rule.

TO GIFT YOUR TEAM UNWARRANTED GOALS! THAT WAS THE ****ING OBJECTIVE OF THE CORRUPT OFFICIAL!

DON'T EVEN TRY AND ****ING CLAIM THAT WAS A LEGIT FREE!

 

[lizard man]

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

 

[bloodsbigot]

Don’t tell me umpires don’t impact games. This has been complete and utter bullshit by the umpires and it’s led to two Sydney goals and the complete change of momentum.

Gee that sounds familiar.

 

[The King!]

Glad to know that you can hit someone in the face and not get penalised. Shocking call.

Swung his arm around pretty straight, if the toss wasnt hugging him wouldnt have got touched

's uncle? Maybe he's just barracking against shit umpiring.

 

[MickG88]

Umps unwilling to penalised Swans for moving after stand is called, is that a new rule?

 

[Blightys Barrel]

Heeney protected species like Daicos, Cripps, Butters. Nothing to see here. If it was Joe Average from any another side. Offered 1 match for an early plea.

 

[RUNVS]

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

Yes. He swung his arm pretty low. He had no idea the St Kilda player was even lower.

 

[bloodsbigot]

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

Yes and Brian Taylor doing his best to get him rubbed out.

 

[Ice-Wolf]

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

THEY'LL DEEM IT THAT TO PUT THE BROWNLOW AROUND HIS NECK!

MRP WILL DO SYDNEY A SOLID AS WELL!

 

[ExRoyboy]

Saints hold every contest and get away with it...thats pathetic

You can’t complain, Sydney absolutely gifted the momentum back by the umpires. That was disgraceful

 

[Chuckie357]

Rubbish
Rowbottom was just bulldozed and not paid a free


been shit all day

Every saints thread is the usual suspects whinging they get a bad run

Taking about when he and Byrnes were both running from opposite directions with eyes for the ball? Turn it up. Not every single thing is a hand out for south Melbourne fmd

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

And the AFL wonders why people hate umpires.

 

[Red Bull]

Should be. Can’t be giving the Brownlow to cheats

 

[Lach72]

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

He’ll get off. Webster kind of staggered, but still he back handed him in the nose, so shoulda been a free to Webster.

Sticking my Plugger hat on here, but the Saints got poled there and coupled with the deliberate completely changed momentum

 

[MickG88]

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

But still high.

 

[Disco Dew]

Yes. He swung his arm pretty low. He had no idea the St Kilda player was even lower.

Plus it’s only Webster. **** him.

Under the rules it was. The umps have let go PLENTY of holding both ways all day. Let’s not pretend Grundy and Rowbottom aren’t being bragged like nothing before.

It was deliberate

 

[bottomboy]

Don’t tell me umpires don’t impact games. This has been complete and utter bullshit by the umpires and it’s led to two Sydney goals and the complete change of momentum.

That was not insufficient intent to keep the ball in play, then a missed high contact and then another free to Sydney. How can anyone defend that? The umpires have completely changed the momentum of the game in Sydney’s favour

This is hilarious. Those were all 100% the right calls. Do you want the umps to throw the rule book out the window when a team's on a roll?

 

[Lingsface]

May get 1 week but because it was Webster will get awarded with bonus brownlow votes.

 

[Bones7677]

Wow just wow.

Talk about umpires deciding a result.

Shoemaker goal gets taken off us

They then pay a incorrect insufficient attempt

Then ignore Heeney belting Webster

To top it off gift him a dubious free and another goal.

Umpires seriously

 

[MickG88]

Swung his arm around pretty straight, if the toss wasnt hugging him wouldnt have got touched

Swung would be the smoking gun. Caught him high, why no free?

 

[bloodsbigot]

Pfft. Stkilda have a history of being a grubby team giving away free kicks.

 

[HirdsTheWord]

Can’t wait for the ****in ******* CEO to tell us all umpiring is best he has ever seen

Swans are getting a complete dick ride
