The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

[lioninthesand]

AFL accredited ump.

That could mean a 16 year old umpiring under 14s. Please, get a grip.

Back your arguments in, but do not use some unverified Twitter account as if that is 'case closed'.

Dogs fans feel no need to defend their team. Still doing most of the posting in these threads.

Because it’s flipping infuriating having every win tarnished. Apparently we’ve never won without umpiring intervention.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Please stop posting that we never get pinged for throws then. Because we copped 3 last night. Don’t come on here either and say they missed another 20 if you have no proof of any.

There is two in your goal highlights. Naughton to Weightman and Dunkley before the Macrae goal.

I think you watched a different game to all of Australia.

yikes if we’re claiming those are throws there would be 50+ in every game this season. Can understand the scraping of the barrel though.

I would like to gently remind you the Bulldogs have won more finals in the last 2 weeks, than Essendon have in the last 17 years.

Maybe, just maybe, look at the fundamental flaws at your own club and culture before having a pop at The Doggies.

All of Australia Get a grip mate.

Obviously an over-exaggeration but you know what I mean.

We do not receive the most free kicks in the comp. read that again.

Not this season.

But the Bulldogs have in previous seasons.

This freak run Free Kick differential run extends for 6 years. It covers both Frees For and Frees Against.

That's what's so puzzling about it.

Does this include the Brissy supporters who have come out not bashing umpires? Putting it down to not being good enough on the night??

 

[adogsfan5]

Fourth in the league for frees for.. for a team that flops and dives every week. Lol.
Let us know when we can discuss the free kicks the umpires “purposely” miss against us… in order to bump up that right hand column of frees against. As it’s a little thin.

Until then, the thread makes little sense.

Go dogs

 

[freddy mercury]

No we don’t. We give away less. Why is it hard for people to understand

We do not receive the most free kicks in the comp. read that again.

It doesn't matter how many you receive, its the manner in which you receive them and in the important moments of a game.

Finally you get it!!!

You're lying if you think you won the game because you were better, you won it because of the umpires. End of the day I won just over 500 from a $50 multi that included you boys to win 1-10 points, so I thank your club and the umpires for that.

 

[Dancing Dougy]

Finally you get it!!!

Bahahahahaha. Looking forward to flogging your bunch of pretenders next.

You know what tells me we were better? The mutha flipping scoreboard

I am. I’m advocating that we stage for frees more as it’s clearly an effective method.

And Matt Stevic.

They propelled the ball without making contact with a fist. Clearly throws and yes that happens 50 times a week in doggies games. Not other games.

 

[adogsfan5]

There’s a reason we don’t see many tigers fans on here. They lose free kick counts continuously, yet just get on with it, win big games and flags.

Would help if you recruited a super star goal kicking midfielder like Bont who was born to shine in big games and finals as well ...

No shit. Hardly relevant to how the umpires should police the game or the theme of the thread.

Lol time will tell friend personally I’m hoping we are good enough to beat your mob of ducking diving chucking flogs and umpires you know just like we did 3 weeks ago when you needed to win and …….didn’t

 

[Bushdid911]

Finally you get it!!!

Not sure why Port Adelaide fans of all people should be in here. If Dogs free kicks require a Royal Commission, what does it say that Port Adelaide somehow wins the free kick count versus Dogs every single game. It's like 5-6 games in a row now.

Scraping barrel 101. From the camera angle the ball covers Naughtons hands yet you’ve just assumed no contact was made with his fist.
