Atleast, I assume he was an amputee, because he only used one arm all night!

Does anyone else agree that referee should be taken out in public and whipped?

Whats your honest opinion of umpires in the AFL at the moment?

Do you think they do a good job or would they be better off sitting in the stands with the fans? easy points here people!

  1. Well I guess no one agrees with the umps all the time, but they try to be consistant and fair...although sometimes it doesnt seem that way. Sometimes its the position the ump is in and sometimes one team is just being really undisiplined. You gotta give the umps credit. they do alot for the game and if it werent for them then there would be no game, and if our team loses we wouldnt have anyone to blame and make ourselves feel better.


  2. I did not se it but love the way you put the question,i had to look see what you were on about.Well done

  3. When will people realise that a high or unequal free kick count means that one team was first to the ball more consistently than the other?

    It happened to the Kangas last week against Geelong when the Roos were clearly the more inferior and unwilling side on the park, and it happened again last night when Hawthorn was consistently second to the ball, unwilling when it mattered and frustrated at both those facts.

    There's no use blaming the umpires. Blame the players and those who prepare and motivate them.

  4. I watched that game last night and the umpires did a good job. Yeah, I might be an umpire my self but I will still have a go at the guys in the AFL if they have a bad game. I still have a go at them when im watching a game.

    Someone said above, the Kangaroos didnt win the game, the umps did. That is a load of c**p. The Hawks went out there to target Brent Harvey. Even the comentators said that the Hawks were not playing the game, they were playing Brent Harvey.

    I have seen it a lot myself as an umpire. When teams start focusing on another player, getting fustrated with them selves or start blaming an umpire, they lose the plot. I have umpired games thios season where teams could have won it but they were pre ocupied with taking out another player or abusing an umpire. Thats what Harthorn did, just focused on Brent Harvey.

    Hawthorn had lots of chances. There were the same amount of opportunities for both teams when I was watching the game, and the Kangaroos took those chances with both hands and they now play Port in the Preliminary Finals.

    I say good luck to all teams.

    My predictions- Who will be there. Geelong v Port- Geelong win

    Want there- Collingwood v Port- Pies to win

  5. do u mean the kangas and hawks ?

    if you do the umpiring was not fair at all !! whenever we got the ball kangas got a free for the most stupidest reason ! where are the fair umpires these days.

    the kangas had 33 free kicks and hawks had 15

    The umpires just wanted to keep the kangas in the game .

    The kangas didn't win THE UMPIRES DID.

  6. The umpires are the best there is.  They do a better than adequate job.

    What is the alternative to the current umpiring?
