Autopsy R13 NM v WCE in Perth

Remove this Banner Ad

The free kick has become clickbait poorn by the media and a piss weak excuse by the Wet Toast supporters because the team who hadn’t won a game this year owned them once again.

The ump is coping it for calling it exactly as the rules state - if you drag the ball in and get tackled you will get pinged for HTB.

Just listen to the commentator who was watching it in real time just like the umps “Yeo drags the ball in….”
I should also add, the plethora of WCE supporters txting me saying the call was cheating I’ve just been agreeing with them.

It enhances their rage 🤣

Schofield was great last night: called it as he saw it and was completely neutral just loving the good footy.

We wasnt able to. Both arms and the ball pinned to his body and on his knees (so unable to even try to release the ball for a kick). We see this situation result in a ball up 99% of the time, even when the player is on their feet. I dont think 'making an attempt' was a consideration by the umpire..I think he deemed it to be dragging the ball under which it clearly wasn't but I beleive that was the umps rationale. Anyway, it was paid, we move on.
Watch the replay again. He had enough time to handball before the tackle landed.

The AFL issued some examples of the HTB interpretation during the week. Might pay to take a look at them too.

Yeah sure Yowie shouldn’t have been given a free against lol. IMG_0688.jpeg But what would have been better was we were given a 50 for his disdain of the decision. I can lend the Yowie this t shirt to wear for the week if he likes
 
When I had a twitter account, I would get up that campaigner so hard. Picks and chooses his comments in particular umpiring decisions. The example provided from the AFL own definition, is almost identical but he fails to engage in that and simply ignores it. Typical flog umpire

Someone should make a 'Has the 'Has the umpire made a Bad decision?' account made a Bad decision?' account and review everything he posts.

It was the evener up after the missed high tackle seconds before
 
Just woke up and West Coast are still shit!

I love how they keep throwing Reid back in our face when everyone knows he’s leaving that shithole for a big Melbourne club, the first opportunity he gets.

Watching yesterday solidified one thing for me. Thank **** Brad Scott is not at the club anymore. Imagine if Gaff had taken our offer? He would have been the bloke that burnt draft Picks on Polec and Gaff.
Ever since he caved Brayshaw’s face in, Gaff has been a non factor.
 
Can't lie, worst decision I've seen this year.
I'll take the win though
You obviously didn’t see the Max King winner against Gold Coast? LOL

Not even close to the worst decision of the year in comparison.

There were worse decisions inside that game.

Darling paid a free in the 1st quarter from a ruck infringement from which he goaled from was a pisstake, especially when Flynn shoves Xerri 10 times harder in the last and they let it roll on and he goals. Which coincidentally was what helped them get a roll on.
 
Directly answering a question put to me by one of your posters, but whatever.
You might find my initial post at the start of this thread counters you assertion.

I’m not sure what an initial post has to do with complaining about the umpires in the post I responded to.

It’s just very disingenuous to even mention that when you were beaten in so many key metrics not least of all the scoreboard by 9 points.

You also had Dean Margetts as your club umpire for 20 years. He must be coming up for life membership soon.
