Hoopers marking contest on the wing, where the wobble player didnt even look at the ball and just went straight for his arms - play on. Disgrace.

was amazed at that seemed to happen after i bagged them for the ones i thought he did not getSomeone on SEN just called up and complained that there was one umpire (number 15 according to this person) who did not pay collingwood one free kick - even when "2 m away from a contest" and the other umpire "50 m away had to pay it" - maybe number 15 actually had a clue?
Also, was surprised at the number of frees Buddy actually got - we all know what SOP is for Buddy
yes both ways do agree there , doubt Daisy had broken ribs he would not be playing , he aint that good anyway !!! arrogant twat he is !! tell him if he don't like been called Daisy then he should tell his fans and the media !!! ,It was both ways today. The amount of times Thomas got put down behind play was ridiculous. The hawks obviously got the word he was playing hurt (suspected broken ribs) from last week and tried to target him.
.
With the umpiring, yes it was crap, and I thought we really got the thin end in the first half. But it was the inconsistency that spoiled things and drove everyone nuts - not this or that particular call. The holding the ball rule seems completely random, players disposing by simply dropping the ball seems to now be fair play, and whether or not you can impede someone from getting to a contest by holding their arm is more or less "flip a coin".
Thought the Pies ended up copping some very poor decisions too.
As for the Beams free... 100% correct - blatant holding. Now if only they could find a way to pay these consistently, games would be a lot less aggravating to watch.
he aint that good anyway !!!
How about when Rioli pinned a pies player in a perfect tackle, spun him around not once, not twice but THREE times only for him to DROP the ball.....and...... PLAY ON!!!!!
I found that one just beyond comprehension!

Take off the blinkers guys. The umpiring was pathetic both ways.

no it is my opinion he is not that good he does not go in and get the hard ball gets he waits for it to be given to him he is a .... no i will not call him what some one else called him today who is not a hawk either ! but really he is an arrogant player who thinks he is better then his own teamShort memory I see.
3 goals and 26 possessions in a best on ground performance against your mob earlier in the year.
yes if you look through a few of us have said as much , it was totally rubbish both ways, i hope it improves for finals but will that happenTake off the blinkers guys. The umpiring was pathetic both ways.
Funny reading the comments posted here, you guys are hilarious. The umpring was pretty bad BOTH ways, take the blinkers off guys.
Its no different to any other week, any other game. Its football, get over it. Such is life. Have you forgotten that you actually won the game?
2007 - Thompson had a cry about the harsh treatment geelong players got, have a look at the treatment since.
I see Thompson got on the front foot and told the AFL to look out for Steven Baker and his treatment of poor defenceless Steve Johnson ...
Thompson also questioned the AFL as to why Joel Selwood's free kick count was down this year, even though Selwood is still ranked 2nd in the league this season. In a prepared statement the AFL boss Andrew Demetriou responded with "Joel Selwood is well on track to break his record of 63 free kicks for recorded in 2008 and will most certainly surpass his super-impressive tally of 59 in 2009. These figures include finals and as of today we haven't played the 2010 finals series where we expect Joel to receive an average of 10 free kicks per game." Geelong coach Thompson, feigning wisdom, told the media throng that he hadn't brought the Finals into his calculations. However he was very concerned that while the AFL Umpires would be focusing on paying as many head high free kicks to Selwood they may omit Jimmy Bartel. "We as a club spend many hours perfecting what we call the 'feel high contact - drop to knees drill' and we would hate to see all this hard work go unrewarded." -AAP
1- you are on the hawks page
2- if you read the posts they actual have said it was bad both ways !!!
3- do you need glasses to see !
1. Very observant of you, yes I am on the Hawks page, wow.
2. Majority of your members here have whinged about it which I find quite amusing. Yes there are the few who have stated it went both ways but have a read and you will find most do not quote that.
3. Are you referring to the umpiring or inequality of the posts made in this thread. If its referring to the umpiring, I could sit here and debate many decisions that didn't go our way i.e. Jolly broken nose in goal score, davis mark on boundary are a couple that come to mind which imo where critical decisions but im not here to complain about that because I don't care, that is football. If your referring to inequality of the posts in this thread, see 2.
Have a nice day!.
nothing in the Jolly broken nose job strats was going to the ball
the comment you need glasses was for you not acknowledging others had said it was both ways !
i know you missed a mark so did we !
why did your guy knock ossie down off play ?? was that a nasty act or an accident !
anyway you have a nice day and good luck tonight
