That highlights the issue with the umpiring. An umpire does their own assessment and sends that in. Then the umpiring department sends the ump their assessment (nothing face to face) and that's about it.

Not good enough.

But they're amateurs umpiring a professional comp.

This article and mindset reflects that.

Gee i thought Pannell was obvious... you should have seen the foul call in the NBA playoff just then!! Dwayne Wade put up a jumpshot that barely hit the ring, no-one touches him and yet he falls backwards and takes a dive on the ground. The ref waits until the shot is missed and rebounded and then called a foul - 2 free throws.
Worst call I've ever seen. Made the call with 2 minutes left in a playoff game hanging in the balance. Match fixing attempt much? Wow.
 
" just one or two free kicks might have been missed"...

With the AFL rules as they are, you could probably make an argument for or against most of the 50/50s paid and decide you are right in a self review.

I think they're already in full tank mode, so this is perfect for them.

Lyon will make as if Carltank were competing for a flag all those years ago.

Top draft picks and he can rebuild a list very quickly to at least play finals. His coaching style will never win a flag.

By getting him sacked and lose his income that directly influences his private life. I wouldnt lose much sleep over that.

Im all for shitting all over him as an umpire as i consider that part of his public life, and now that umpires are wearing numbers and doing media appearances it comes with the territory.

If however we flood his company with complaint letters then this issue which is rightly targeting his competence and integrity as an umpire quickly becomes about the shocking behaviour of crows fans and the pressure will come off the AFL and onto the AFC

Ridiculous thing to say considering he was an unlucky bounce away from winning a drawn Grand Final.

Ridiculous thing to say that he can get to a grand final. He won't compete again for a grand final. His list has too many holes.

You might as well say Ken or Sando could get to a grand final, just a kick away.

Yeah they are now! After the game against us was their last desperate effort to stay relevant this year so they turned it into a low-scoring shitfest. Ha ha would like to be playing them now.

Ross never rebuilds he will screw Freo over by giving up all their draft picks for players.

You said his coaching style can never win a flag. Considering he's been so close on multiple occasions, I don't know how you could say that with any certainty.
