My goodness Harry McKay... the gaffe of the season so far. Certain goal fumbled away.

Your claim was that I said “we’ve not played more than 5 minutes of good football”. Of course we’ve played more than that amount of good football! However, my point was that we haven’t been able to match the EFFORT (ticker, belief and pressure) that the eagles did in that match against the swans. That’s our downfall at the moment and I do not see that changing for the foreseeable future with our absence of leadership.
 
A message to Freo: please take care of those kissed-on-the-****, umpire's love children campaigners from Lygon st today. Please?
Well, what do you know. Freo had 'em done cold then a controversial "mark" dead in front was followed up by a sooky ump donating the sealer with a follow-on free kick on the edge of the goal square.
 
Brain fade by Freo.

Game was still winnable but they wanted to have a go at the umps. They got called for a dissent free and still didn't learn their lesson and kept arguing and got a 50.
 
Freo v Carlton. This game is F...d. dissension with an umpire should be a fine not an on field free kick in front of goal. However, Nothing is going to change or address the obvious umpiring problem. The hierarchy of AFL management wont address it. The AFL Board needs to recognise how the pathetic tampering of rules have made interpretation a lottery among 4 central umpires.
Nothing will change while you have a Board that is based on diversity etc bullshit. You need a Board made up of 300 plus game ex players and successful Club administrators running the League.

If it's actual dissent then it should be a free kick. A fine after the game isn't going to be effective. The real threat of dissent is your teammates being pissed at you and that works.

Can't have ump calls impacted by players intimating them.
