Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!
- Thread starter iLoVeNeWmAn
- Start date
Yes with this hilarious screenshot below, I have tried to find the actual post so I can provide the facts of the SEN RD 20 free kick differential.
Not a farce comment here, but a genuine question:
When a player is taking a snapshot, the defenders must stand out of the clear zone and can only try to smother after the ’play on’ call.
If the shot at goal is taken after the siren, the kicker can still snap it but must start ‘off the line‘ in a manner that the snap is taken over the mark.
Is this type of snap (ie over the mark) specifically not allowed in general play, or can it done? I would have thought it would be the best way to snapshot without defenders running at you (depending where you’re lining up from of course).
Anyone know how this ruling works?

It is allowed during general play. I think you’ll find that the umpires call play on if the player deviates from over the man on the mark, which they usually do to try and have a better angle. Obviously they can’t do that after the siren goes as the ball is called dead as soon as they deviate
Nah, it's crystal clear Mac.
Very similar to the Unrealistic attempt rule.
Example: Shai comes from 4 deep for a mark, sits on 2 seperate heads, pirouettes, his nose starts bleeding due to altitude, he gets a hand on it, carries it down, ball spills out as he hits the ground.
Whistle!
In 0.4 seconds umpire 23 thinks:
Hmmmm, that was pretty unrealistic.... BUT it was Shai Bolton .... BUT.... I guess I should adjudicate consistently..... BUT Gil and Ch 7 do like to encourage the big marks.... BUT he did take that mark 4 times last week..... BUT.... Should I consult the ARC...... what would Stevic do....
Who'd be an umpire?
Every rule has a grey area interpretation. It's a joke.
Apparently the hopeless hawks have only given away seven free kicks to 3/4 time. Tiges given away double that. Sure. The umps are biased or incompetent - one or the other.
I thought they were ok however seem have decided to interpret deliberate OOB and ducking differently this week…
And the commentators again want to dissect every call we get or ones the opposition may not get. Clear unconscious (or conscious) bias!
Newcombe was laying on the ground with an arm pinned, then the ball comes flying out, was one of the most obvious frees I've seen.
It was a joke. Hard to complain about a win like that but Jesus Christ
The umpires just hate our captain and ruckman. They absolutely hate him. Sure he gives the odd one away but they look to pay bs frees that simply aren’t there all the time. Even his opponents look confused half the time when they blow their whistle.
And they refuse to pay us a free in our forward line or when we’ve created a HTB.
Mollison cheated his arse off all day.
