I can't remember a worse one.
Todd Curley got a free against him in the 99 finals inside the centre square and the umpires swapped over as they changed positions and the new umpire set the mark inside the 50 - in effect an old 15m penalty - and Wirripunda made the distance by a foot.

Idiot.
Most of the people on here don't barrack for the Swans, just footy supporters watching a finals games.I was disgusted in the standard of umpiring tonight.
They do change the fabric of a game.
It should have been a 50 metre penalty to the Swans. Leo Barry was running past to make position when Tyson Stenglein moved into his path to block his run. If Barry had initiated contact, then the free kick would have been correct, but that is not how it happened.
It was not the turning point though.....the LRT kick across goal that was intercepted by Adam Hunter gave the Eagles life. The Hunter goal was made all the more important by easy misses by Kennelly and Goodes either side of it.

My understanding is the free kick was given for sheparding more than 5m off the ball.
The free kick was there.
What is wrong with you lot? You should all be ashamed to call yourselves Australian with all this whingeing going on...
I sure hope we win the 5th Test...

Is this really correct ? 5m seems a bit much but there must be some space afforded to the man on the mark.
My first thought when i saw the incident, before the ump blew the whistle, was that Barry had ********ed up. Stenglein didn't move much and Barry went straight into him.
And was Stenglein on the mark to begin with ? maybe the place that barry ran into him was the mark ?

How I worked it out was 2 minutes previously Goodes bumped the man on the mark and the umpire turned over the free. Then Barry happens to do it ..whether Stenglein moved or not , the umpires first thought was '' oh not again penalise'' . Whether it was right or wrong is up for dispute.
pretty easy to guess who i barrack for, so i am in no way biased (like Robert Walls was tonight). Stenglein turned 180 degrees around, took a couple steps, and contacted Barry who was merely going to run behind him. Anyone who thinks that that was a deserved free kick and hence goal and hence win is deluding themselves.
One of the worst decisions ever. The camera was down the ground when it happened, and it was 100% obvious what happened, just not so obvious to the umpire. That was West Coast's season right there.
Still won't win the flag.

there is teh rule on pages 60 and 61 of the rule book id you enter the protected zone and make contact with the player on the mark its a free kick.
thats the technical side of it, yes i will agree it was a "soft" free kick but it was there to be paid

The rule states that you cannot interfear with the man on the mark.
I was directly in line with Barry and make no mistake he was lining stenglien up. There was alot of verbal going on and you can tell by the path Barry took he wanted to get stenglien. Why was he anywhere near Stinger? Barry's man was 15m to the side. I agree its slightly dodgy but Barry should not have been near the mark, he had no reason to be.
Stenglien did brace himself but what is he supposed to do??? Stand with his hands in the air and let some on crash into him??

I think you'll find that it was Tyson who stepped into Barry.
In no way am I saying that this cost the Swans the game I am simply saying I was blown away by the decision!

The Protected Area is a corridor which extends from 5 metres either side of the mark to 5 metres either side of, and a 5-metre radius behind, the Player with the football, as illustrated in diagram 2 appearing on page 61. No Player shall enter and remain in the Protected Area unless the field Umpire calls “Play On” or the Player is accompanying or following within 5 metres of his or her opponent.rapier said:
I'm no umpire and obviously have trouble reading.
Please explain how 2 metres behind the man on the mark is protected.
I can see how running across the mark is a free though.
It was certainly Stenglein who made the contact happen, but by the same token WTF was Barry doing running there? His only purpose could have been somehow affecting the man on the mark (whether by contact or not) which shouldn't be allowed (whether or not the rules actually say that I don't know so I'll leave that for others to argue about).
That holding the ball on the boundary line at the end was pretty ordinary, too. I'd been thinking all game that there used to be a rule once where if you got tackled and dropped the ball you got penalised but it doesn't seem to happen any more. Then what do you know, they pay the first one for the year for what was a pretty soft tackle where the ball spilt out.

Rule 16.1.2 means you can't stand within 5 metres of the player taking the free kick. It is to stop somone standing immediately behind the player with the ball and tackling him as soon as 'play on' is called.
