Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 4 - Freo v Blues Sat April 6th 4:20pm AEDT (AO)

[Dockerjonz]

Do the umps have a song?

"WE WEAR GREEN BUT BLUE"...,

 

[KnaveyBlue]

Footy wins. Freo are unwatchable.

 

[ptrg]

Tehcnically the umpire got it right:

16.4.2 ‘All Clear’ Given But Play Has Not Recommenced
(a) Where a Free Kick is awarded to a Player during the period when the field Umpire
has signalled ‘All Clear’ for a Goal to be recorded and the football is bounced in the
Centre Circle, the Free Kick shall be taken where the infringement occurred, or at
the Centre Circle, whichever is the greater penalty against the offending Team.

But still, what a weak as piss maggot.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Not touched. Aish hair moved in the wind is about it

Even if it was when does that ever get called?. I rekon that happens alot in games. Quick kicks out of a pack that gets touched on the way to a mark. They never call it so why would they at that stage of the game?. Dumb shit arguing from Freo that cost them the game.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Are Carlton fans for real? Look at them gloating about horrific umpiring in this thread

 

[WilloTree]

Takes a lot of guts I'd say to make such a call.

Blame the player who ran their mouth off.

How many were paid during the game for dissent?

 

[Randomizor]

Best team in the league danster. Get aboard the Blues train.

Undefeated.

Melbourne and GWS are 10x better

 

[Magma]

im sure what was said was so heinous that the ump needs counselling

 

[SSSSSS]

What a shit way to end a good game

 

[MagpieJo]

The fix is on. Get ****ed AFL.

Absolutely disgusting

I guess they still use paper bags at the scum

Freo, you were robbed

 

[420]

After the Adelaide/Sydney farce last year, it was going to be a challenge for the afl to out-amateur itself this year but boy oh boy WOWEE

 

[_jrtp09_]

Freo get one decision against them all day and absolutely lose their heads. Need to grow up I reckon

One bullsh1t decision

They were robbed of a rightful win

 

[RAPPA]

which player triggered the arbitrary dissent rule?

 

[BratPack]

At least we suck on our own merits. Can you guys trying winning on them for once in a *ing while?

 

[Always Ballin]

The Fox Footy commentating team are a bunch of blowhards. Talking about Carlton having an "innate" special ability to win in the clutch.

Yeah, I agree. It's called Vic Bias.

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

Again -

 

[btdg]

I get the dissent rule but do you really want a game potentially being decided over that?

Also not thst it makes a difference, but the dissent being paid where it happened is a farce. Surely it should go back to the middle.

Short answer is no, if course not. It also makes for a weirdly hollow win. Hit the front with a fantastic comeback and get denied the chance to complete it by defending for 40.seconds. now all the attention shifts to the double goal and not the actual result (which 90% probably stays the same)

That said, I don't think we have seen what the free kick was paid for? There has to be a line somewhere - admittedly.a hefty threshold in the dying seconds of a close game, but i guess we will hear more on that...

Most deluded, low IQ fans in the league

 

[Monco Matt]

Was a great game until the last minute when the umpires decided to get involved and ruin the contest. When will these muppets stay out of it and let the boys fight it out. To hand one team a gift win from nowhere is unacceptable.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Dissent, what a terrible rule

They should go up to him after the siren and let rip can't pay another free kick after the games done

 

[beema limapep]

Ump number 19 who paid the dissent free looked highly emotional and upset.

 

[Plugger35]

Hard to hate Cottrell.

He reminds me of Mitch Robinson

, a ranga with a head like a robber's dog but he is hard at it and gets the best out of his limited footy ability

 

[ApplecrossWC]

The farcical umpiring favouring Carlton is followed up with that, what a joke

 

[quotemokc]

Umpires have thin skin

 

[Freo16]

Surely you have to review a ****ing goal before you can pay another free kick and count the previous goal.

How many times are these umps gonna bend over backwards to give Carlton the win ?
