Ararat & Stawell a draw!winners this week?
Ararat & Stawell a draw!
Nhill by 20 goals over Dimboola
Saints to beat United by less than a goal.
Warrack by 2 goals over MM.
A round of close games apart from Nhill I reckon.
Animal, you were nearly right with this tip. I'm not a follower of this league, I've only gone by the previous results. You had the inside money but, still didn't get it quite right. Good on DimDamBoola. What of Guy Smith's opinion that Nhill wouls challenge Horsham.Nhill should win by that on paper except Dimboola at home has always been a snake pit for the tigers.
They'll be happy with a 5 or 6 goal win.
Nhill is currently riddled with injuries, not there best side by any means.
Went to the Eagles, Burras game. Sat in the car on the shed side. Great spirit by both sides. Unfortunately the game was marred by some terrible umpiring. I know most people are used to it being bad but I can tell you either Rudolph is a cheat or a ******ed pineapple from the planet Zogg. The point post was knocked down after a heavy clash, the two central umpires then walked from the field and sat in the shed. Nobody knows why? Apparently the paid goal umpire asked for the game to be declared nul and void due to health and safety reasons?!?! After this the Eagles got every kick from Rudolph that was going. It was all very weird and very sad.
I have never seen the central umpires walk off the ground before while a game is still in progress. What were they thinking? Point posts have come down before in all levels of footy but I have never seen the officials give up! As yet there is yet to be an investigation announced into the conduct of the umpires throughout the day but it would be staggering if both clubs didn’t bring it up at League level.
I thought the way the umpires appeared to chastise player from both teams was worse. Chasing them across the ground and invading their personal space, it bordered on physical intimidation.
There are bigger papers around than the Mail Times that flog material from here.Would be good to see the mail times publish the ideas about footy restructure from Big Footy. Given this was where the ideas all started and debated it seems only right. The paper was able to publish unfounded rumors about Harvey Lang so why not the constuctive stuff????
The Nhill Tigers are still to land a big scalp this year after going down to the Saints today.
todays scores:
Horsham Saints 9.15 69 v Nhill 4.7 31
Horsham Demons 11.21 99 v 4.3 27
Horsham United 9.18 72 v 9.7 61
Minyip/Murtoa 9.8 62 v Stawell 7.6 48
Anybody know what happened at Dimboola on Saturday???Anybody read ‘man in the corner’ in the Wimmera Mail Times today? Maybe the league should be paying Maurie in 5c coins.
A dissapointing end to a game that was battled out by the the bottom side. The fact that the umpires decided the result with an incorrect decision is very unfortunate. you would think that the umpires would make the right decision in a situation such as was presented on the weekend. some very good points were brought to attention in the mail times today by the dimboola president. it would be dissapointing however if such decisions were made on bias. United have been given the points and have been placed in 5th position, in which minyip murtoa could be assuming. the umpires association at the moment seems to be an untouchable group that makes thier own rules. some reserves matches this year have even been umpired by 3 central umpires, a waste of league money and which seems to void any commments about a lack of umpires in the region. What is the deal with the regions umpire association and complete lack of professionalism???!

Scores level when siren sounds-kick from 50m after the siren. Dimboola player punches ball away from goal-ball the punched by a UNited player back over the line. Called a point-United win. Sound about right to those who were actually there?Can someone please explain what happend with this incident i dont have access to the wimmera mail??

The laws state if it's punched through by the opposition, in this case Dimboola, a point stands, if by the attacking side, United, the score doesnt stand, UNLESS, the umpire cannot tell whose hand the ball came off, which is the decision that was made. The umpire who made the decision is from Ballarat and is an AFL cadet. Which made the point the Dimboola president brought up about Les Wills umpiring a game with his son in it disappointing, incinuating that Wills was biased, and from reading the paper, that it was in fact Wills who made the decision.
There wouldnt have been much chance for Wills to be biased towards his son, as his son only played a quarter of the game.
My understanding is that Jackson Oneil punched the ball forward (away from the goals) and a United player then punched/kicked the ball back through for a behind. If you read the rules this was to United's advantage and should be called a no score. Wills was the umpire who made the call. Was icing on the cake for a terrible display of umpiring.My understanding of the rule is that if the ball is assisted across the line no score counts. If the ball continues on its trajectory and goes across the line the score counts regardless of who touched it last.
I stand to be corrected though.
