Umpiring

[fleabitten]

That's the sort of modelling I do. Simple and logical. Just gets you to the heart of the matter, but isn't hugely accurate.

If you can get where frees are then you start to be fairly accurate. Normalise by accuracy in goal kicking and you get a pretty decent model. Probably find that the end results are in your ball park in my experience. Typically a rough model that is logical ends up near the detailed model.

It's interesting but it really only tells us what the results might be if all teams were not only unaffected by umpiring bias, but also had equal amounts of discipline and ability to execute good tackles and spoils. Obviously, in the real world some teams are more disciplined and/or more technically correct in their execution of contact plays.

I totally believe that we've been treated unfairly by the umpiring fraternity and the AFL right through the dynasty, but you'd need to actually go through footage game by game and record all the incorrectly awarded and missed free kicks to come up with something that would convince the general population.

That was simply a disgusting decision along with the marking contest shooting star meme worthy effort from Larkey

We won the count !!!!!

The other side of this is we are the only club in history to win three flags getting absolutely shafted by the umps,that’s how good our team was in that dynasty period.

No other club can claim that.

That’s nothing. Which club built a dynasty during a period of unprecedented rule changes designed to reign them in? That’s top tier cheating.
As an additional kicker the bloke that orchestrates it transitions straight out to ceo a rival club. SHocking right?

******* nostrils. The AFL has been watching this thread and ordered Tigers 1 free kick surplus in a match where it doesn't matters to stop us from embarrassing them.

Heartfelt sympathies Meteoric. On the verge of greatness only to be Rodgered or at least part Rodgered by the fluoros:

Mathew Nicholls (15), Paul Rebeschini (31), Martin Rodger (37), Nicholas McGinness (42).

Lube was contacted for comment but would neither confirm nor deny presence or application.

 

[Lord of the Wings]

See the AFL has come out and said flat out the goal umpire made a mistake in the Adelaide v Swans game and he will be stood down. Completely different approach to the one they took when we were shafted by the faARCe.

Typical AFL. One rule for Richmond and one rule for everyone else. Pricks!

Now the AFL has attacked us until we are hopeless again its a case of job done.

After the last couple of weeks it is obvious that the Fluoro behave like the tantrum kids in the chocie isle with the me, me , me being of no benefit for the game.

4 fluoros all caught sucking not blowing Jez and Pussies smashing a simple rule that have been in existence for ever and a day.
4 fluoros has not improved froballs

Selectively applied new Rules :
Fluoro abuse - the Fluoros screamed for this.
Entering the protected area.
Stand rule
Score review
Ducking in the tackle
In the back / chopping the arms interpretations.

Stop listening to Fluoros. They do not need:
To scream that they are hard done by.
To be paid more - More money never means better, just richer.
Ruck nominations... Why? who cares?
4 field Fluoros. 3 is enough and has been better.
Field Goal Fluoros. Improve the tech. Goalies can be techno jocks. The on field Fluoros do not make score decisions, they get told.
Pussy biased stakeholders telling them how to interpret the game via team biased videos.

The Fluoros have definitely been complicit with the AFL. Complicating the simple. Giving the public the debacle that has been peddled out in the 2023 season.

Crows fans now know what a shit goal umpiring decision whether in general play or the ARC can do to your season.
Wonder how many of their supporters were happy that the Lynch decision got incorrectly overturned last year.

I can't understand the new CEO is appointed Dillon , and Gil is still the face of the afl puzzling and bewildering nothing more then a boys club who never takes accountability .Dillon is a puppet. Gill tenure is full of controversy and failure. All they did is hung the umpire out to dry and handballed it.

What an absolute joke that is. Gilligan still running things after he announced he would be finishing up in May.

At least the Crows got an apology.
Still waiting for ours.

Let's see if Gold Coast get the worst free kick differential because it is the "game plan".

I bet they don't.

[TigFan1966]

Seems the formula is bad decisions x number of umpires on the field. So now we have four times as many bad decisions per game than we did when I first started going to the footy.

Thanks Joey lol

 

[RoaringTiger]

Whe jack was interviewed after his last game he said he was looking forward to sitting in the stands watching the tigers and "complaining about the umpire". Privately, many of the players must be absolutely furious about how we get shafted by the umps week in, week out.....
