The AFL's review of umpires decisions are the biggest jokes, when do they ever come out and say the umpire was wrong?

Often they do. Last night was the right call though.

 

[The hands of stone]

NBA and NFL teams gut their lists regularly.

They do and they focus on defence first to do it

Some me one where they've said a matching deciding decision was ever incorrect.

So only two when the game was on the line and the calls were so blunt they couldn't lie, but often you say.

So only one when the game was on the line, so much for your often call.

This was 2 seconds of research and 3 popped up immediately. Tell me one game where the match was decided and they didn’t admit an umpiring mistake?

Last night, North v Freo.

Last night, North v Freo.

By the letter of the law it wasn’t.

Deliberate can only be paid once the boundary umpire calls it out of bounds and the umpire called time before the boundary umpire could call it.

Regardless of when the siren goes, the game is called when the umpire calls time. It’s not a perfect system but it’s all we have.

Only two games in, but Sheezel is actually doing it better then Daicos was last year.

They are both freakish talents aren’t they. Although I can’t believe the amount of legrope teams give these sorts of players as they run around and rack up absurd numbers.

 

[Baz_hawk]

It wasn't.


That was a horrendous decision

Replays suggest it was?

 

[Off The Couch]

Three times Watson has referred to the Suns as the Swans

Might be time to call time on commentating

 

[Mercy Seat]

It wasn't.


That was a horrendous decision

Siren clearly goes before it went oob. Tv audio has a slight delay. Right call was made.

Still fuming about the one that Gieshen said was correct call for a Cyril rundown of a cat defender in that losing streak. “The cat player gathers the ball, takes three strides to steady to kick, so we’re happy with that being no prior”

West Coast will win enough games at home to sink us to the bottom by the looks of it...

GC and Adelaide look terrible too

 

[smish]

GC and Adelaide look terrible too

Gold Coast I thought looked good today bar the last quarter.

Adelaide I think will get 6 wins minimum this season, especially with the home ground advantage. They were within a point of Richmond half way through the last quarter.

Good.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

GC played so much better than we did against Essendon, and they did it down here too.

What about the doggies ?

 

[Sixpence]

Geelong haven't won a game yet either ...

 

[Billyc]

Still lost and they are a disaster of a club. But with our worse start to a season since 1950, I think it’s fair to have us as short priced favourite for the wooden spoon

 

[HODGEYROAD]

What about the doggies ?

They could be 0-6 looking at the next month they have.
