McKay is Hipwood MKII.

Did nothing today. Will drop away now as he's just that type of a footballer.

Your are an overrated team at the moment. Similar to Brisbane in many ways.
He was BOG in his first 3 games. What has Hipwood done this year?

Absolutely clueless.
 
100% it’s on the ump.

On replay it looks like at least 2x players touched it - plus the response from everyone.
B*S*, the replay is inconclusive.

Stop blaming the umpires for your game plans’ weaknesses.

Slow plodding defensive football is so boring and as showed today - a losing strategy against good teams.

You Sir, are an honest Blue.
I haven't seen too many deny that it was touched. A couple have.
It was 100% touched. I haven't seen and don't need the alternative angle to know that.
Doesn't change the fact that it would've been hard to see in real time and, while a disappointing call, hardly a howler.

What ever mate. You speak like you haven’t even watched it.

Looking forward to knocking you out of the finals later this year.

It touched his hair if you are lucky nothing else and it would be the 1st time in 100 years a hair flick has ever been called touched, being a cry baby for no reason and you know it.
 
I didn't watch any of the game. Have only seen the last minute.

How can the umpires get that one call so damn wrong. Kick was clearly deflected off a player.

I'm not talking about the rest of the game and freo got this and that. But this is one call that was so clear and so bad it cost a team a game. Crazy this stuff still happens. Imagine this in a GF.
 
You played your worst footy because we locked down and made your midfield look pedestrian.
You mean you flodded and played chip chip keepings off so no one could score, great way to control the play for 3/4 of the game but makes it hard to put anyone away.

If your coach played a more aggressive gameplan you probably get 30+ in front with the clearance dominace early and win but you seem intent only on making sure you dont get scored against.

No I'm actually serious
One of the umps on good friday is a Carlton supporter.

Carlton kicked 9 goals direct from free kicks against us.
Which umpire? And where's the evidence that he paid all of the 50s?
Last question; were the free kicks that resulted in 9 goals all there?
Ok, actual last question; which ones were they?
Lied again, one more; how many of North's goals from frees were questionable and how many did said umpire pay to North throughout the game?
 
Or when Acres took 2 steps and got tackled it was holding the ball, but about 20 in similar circumstances were play on (mixture of both teams). Umpiring was terrible all game, favoured Freo large majority of the day.
The Acres one was fair. Not a lot of prior, but the sidestep (I think it was to get around our own player) is what undid him.
 
Just checking in before hitting the sack to see if the tears are still flowing…….



Resounding Yes and it is beautiful really! 🤣👻

I'm thinking of a different one. I'm not concerned they were paid, I am concerned with the 20 that werent paid. Seems a very different interpretation if you fail a kick as opposed to fail a handball. Although Freo did get away with a kicking one that led to a goal 2 disposals later.
 
Not 100% sure but have video reviews just been only used for score involvements?

If so all good we have nothing to bitcch about - but if video reviews have been used for anything else in the game than it was a dodgy decision to not use it when 4 players claiming touched
Have you watched footy before? Do you know the rules, or do you just get the general gist by yelling ball whenever a player is tackled?

Hey, I'm giving the man a compliment. Why the agro?

Sheesh.
