Umpiring Round 7 Crows v Pies Umpiring

[El Doederino]

I'm not sure if that is the rule but it should be. However, if you are confident that is the rule then I'm happy to take your word as truth. Either way, it was a really bad look for the game. The Crows should've also used that moment to set a precedent for good sportsmanship and not accepted the free kick so that the umpire could've thrown it in.

About 4 or 5 Collingwood players got their hands on the ball before De Goey in that play. It was Sidebottom who fed it out to De Goey on the wing into the path of Murphy leaving the field. If De Goey had a better possession, you can bet your arse he would have taken off down field and laced someone in the forward 50m. Instead because it wasn't a good pass by Sidebottom, De Goey scuffs a shot along the ground, maybe because he saw Murphy, maybe not.

The only error was that play should have stopped when it because in the vicinity of Murphy leaving.

There were enough terrible calls (Fogerty/Murphy, Butts/Johnson). This wasn't one of them. Also Collingwood could have replaced Murphy while he was leaving the ground, so the coach was wrong on that one as well.

That one was a free to Pedlar. He got front position, and Moore chopped his arms.

He got a free kick for high lmao, not arm chop.

This is the basis of my point.

Either way, it was the correct call or at worst the sort of 50:50 one that happens all game every game

Fair enough, but asking the Crows to hand the ball back is a bit much when De Goey no doubt would have sped off towards goals if he got a clean possession out of it.

Yes, point taken but it was a bad look for the game. Not a knock on Adelaide per se so sorry if I put it across as if it were.

I agree, which I clarified here. I know what you mean though, not trying to gaslight you. I do think JDG would've surged forward if possible, you are correct it isn't on Adelaide to concede a boundary throw in, I just would've liked to have seen it as a show of good sportsmanship but to do so in a tight game in the dying minutes was an unrealistic ask.

Great. I look forward to getting absolutely reamed by the umps as a response this week. Not that it will make any difference.

never happen! its like they dont see black and white!

 

[El Doederino]

I'm just disappointed I haven't seen any "right in front of me" gifs yet

Oh if we had won, that would have gone viral again

Lol, was soft as butter, lucky to see those paid 10% of the time within range of goal.

Bullshit, are you actually trying to defend the umpiring?

If there's a marking contest, and the player in front gets his arms or head hit by the player behind, it is normally a free kick.

Thank you.

It wasn’t paid as an arm chop so you got that wrong, and the high contact was soft as it gets, what about the 50 that resulted in a goal to you when the umpire didn’t say ‘stand’? Umpire 19 again I believe, you got an answer for that too?

That game was like watching an Eagles home game in the late 80s early 90s, what the crowd wanted the crowd got because the umpires thought the roar of the crowd was actually for them, and they liked it.

I'm not here defending the umpires. There were a couple of absolute howlers, being the Fogerty hit on Murphy (I was expecting him to go on report for that) and the high tackle on Johnson.

I've had my say on the De Goey deliberate as well. That was just a shit show from the beginning.

The rest of them though were your run of the mill umpiring issues no different to any other game. I don't even know what 50m penalty you're talking about. Most 50m penalties given I have no idea what they're for.

 

[Ginnieboy]

Are the AFL making the names of the umpires a secret now?

It was very bad, almost as bad as the 1997 semi final between Adelaide and Geelong at Football Park (not paid Leigh Colbert

Most annoying part of it was that it actually made me happy/pleased Collingwood win.

Thanks for nothing umpires, I never want to feel like that again

 

[Ginnieboy]

Alex Whetton 19, if he umpires AFL next week all hope is gone for our game, if it isn’t already.

Simon Meridith 21, known Collingwood hater, has form.

Nathan Williamson 22

Nathan Toner 25.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Similar issues in hawks vs dogs game.
Shit happens, it turns people away though

Alex Whetton 19

Needs to be looked into, you get the feeling someone close to him had substantial money on the Crows.

Everyone thinks they get a rough trot with the maggots, this was something more than the average shit umpiring, this was cheating.

 

[hawkman]

Collingwood have had a good run over the last couple of years, even the Port game this year.

They got a shocking run yesterday

He surely gets banished to the VFL for the foreseeable future, Meridith will get off, would much rather he didn’t umpire games involving us though.

[Ginnieboy]

All is forgiven then lol

Mate. Watch the hawks replay. One example which was just as bad, bontempelli getting a free for a hold when he was doing the holding
