Can't blame the umpy this time around

It was almost embarrassing in the 1st quarter, we got so many frees. After that the umpiring was pretty good I thought.

For whatever reason. we lost due to skill errors in the last quarter, and to some extent in the 3rd., as well.

God, it's hard being a Tiger supporter. No choice, but to hang in there, just like the past 20 years.

Wouldn't have minded ruling out this extraneous variable in the Essendon match.

25 frees to 14 our way

I think at quarter time it was 9 to 2

 

[Tiger74]

agreed, but they improved in the 2nd half

 

[Bunnerz85]

still a few iffys i think.

what about when johno had to tell the umpire it was too high!

and Headland gets a free kick when ducking his head, the tiger boys get done high, play on says the umpire.

All i want is consistency

Shaun Ryan is the bloke we need to be wary of. We've copped the short end of the stick in all five Richmond games he's done since the start of 2006, including the R5 West Coast game.

If you get to the ball first you will get the free. Freo were pathetic in the 1st quarter and didn't deserve a free. We should have been 6 goals up by quarter time. It's amazing what happens if you play in front and get to the ball first. The umpiring was fine for the whole game.

First time this year we have got a good run from the umps,

was very surprised!! But we did earn a few from going in hard and being first at the contest!!
