MRP / Trib. Jeremy Cameron makes contact with umpire while celebrating a goal

[Strange Cat]

You still lose

To be fair Jezza was only 2 points away from matching the Hawks entire game score

Probably would have made it if the ump didn't shirtfront him

 

[Ricky Vaughn]

Did he deliberately touch an umpire by cuddling him? This is getting worse...

100%

Nobody has ever cuddled and umpire by accident.

Like I said, 8 weeks.

 

[Rusty Brookes]

A fair and reasonable punishment is for all of his goals to be nullified in today's game. And to ensure he doesn't do it again, each goal he kicked should be handed over to the opposition. So by my calculations - his seven goals would equal 42 points with the Cat's final score being 85. Then that 42 points should be added to Hawthorn's total of 45 resulting in the Hawks score being 87 points.

This allows Jeremy to play next week while learning a valuable lesson about paying attention to umpires.

BTW I'm happy for the same logic to be applied to Lloyd Meek's game for his ruck transgression.

Danger way more consistent at an elite level which is the halmark of a more talented player.

Rubbish

 

[The hands of stone]

You still lose

Gee you Geelong supporters are a barrel of laughs arent you

 

[FredLeDeux]

Gee you Geelong supporters are a barrel of laughs arent you

We are tonight

 

[Stars align]

The umpire did not charge into Cameron when play was not even live. Cameron charged into the umpire.

You are so obsessed with my Geelong obsession by the way. Most normal people would just accept my Geelong obsession.

Don’t believe that was a football action

Your words say one thing but your heart is not true in typing those words. But it is fine, I can interpret your post correctly for the uninitiated.

Responding to the intent of your words and not their literal meaning I would just say this RV:

Ok so deliberately touching an umpire is ok now so long as you have flattened the poor campaigner first.

 

[Meteoric Rise]

He should be punished by being forced to play for Richmond as KPF to replace Lynch.

4 weeks of having Taranto and Hopper kicking it to every part of the F50 except on his chest will ensure he never does it again.

Tigers don't have kick it to me receivers as key forwards.

 

[STPer18]

Umpire was the one who initiated contact, the footage is damning. Pretty obvious what's going on here - the AFL boy's club conspiring with the umpire fraternity to take out Geelong's best player to level the playing field. Sneaky buggers almost got away with it too.

****, this thread got bizarrely personal. Do you need my Kindergarten teacher’s phone number for background?

That aside, It’s still 8 weeks.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Nothing for clearing up the ump but give him a couple for carrying on like a pork chop.

There are no trangressions against Geelong campaigners. They are like parking officers, you see one getting beaten up in Lock Stock and everyone loves it. So you couldn't rightly punish Lloyd for that even if he did kick goals.

 

[Reppie]

Goat goes where goat wants to go...umps are a shit stain anyway so who cares.

 

[glenashley]

Think he should be rubbed out for 6 weeks simply for carrying on like he scored the GF winner rather than just putting his team up by 80 points against the wooden spooners...

 

[Biggy_Boy]

Boundary umpire got caught up in the moment. He left his post and wanted to join in on the celebration. Jezza didn't see him coming in for the high-five and cuddle. It's infectious when Geelong are piling on goals and Cameron is putting on an Ablett-esque master class. Everyone feels compelled to touch the great man, hoping some of his greatness may rub off on them.

Really no.

Boundary umpire saw a goal being scored and started positioning himself to run it back to the center, as is part of their job (or did you think it got back there by magic?)

 

[1972championsofaust]

Sorry, let me make that easier for you.

Is it only Cameron that needs to get out of the way? Where is the umpires awareness?

The boundary umpire was doing his job….. Trying to retrieve the Football for the Centre Bounce!

 

[geelong_crazy26]

Rubbish

Martin doesn’t even rank top ten for finals performances… so many players have gone to levels he hasn’t

 

[BF Tiger]

Probably true… just not in the second half of finals against Richmond.

Force Geelong to return him to gws with pick 7

They'd still waste it.

 

[Xtreme]

Umpire was in the wrong position and it clearly was an accident. Won't even be looked at lol

Greg Williams accidentally made contact with an umpire back in the day and he was suspended. Cameron must be made an example!

 

[TheEscapeClub]

Can someone explain to me, apart from the teams involved, why this incident has 50 replies and a three page thread and a deliberate knee to a defenceless player in a ruck contest, which the AFL has already said they want out of the game, has no thread?

Start one.

Don't think, DO!
