No way that deserved a free kick but Jake was foolish to backchat the ump for the 50m regardless.

Pleasing thing was though his 5-10 burst after the incident was spectacular and he really lifted the side.

His form has been down no doubt but there's no doubting his importance to the team when he plays like he did the other day.
Tremendous.
Spot on :clap Go Kingy

He also made his presence known in the second when Brent Guerra handed Shane Edwards a goal when he shoved the lightly framed midfielder over in the goal square.

King positioned himself behind Guerra while he manned the mark, and directed a few choice words at the defender.

"I think they were thank you and a bit more," King said.

"Eddy's a quiet kid and the blokes push him around … it's got me bent why they do it.

"For Shane to kick that goal, it was a massive booster, so why not? You give a bit of lip and you cop a bit back, it's all part of the game and a bit of fun."


Such words of empathy and altruism should rightly bring a feeling of deep shame to any umpire who has misunderstood our boy for so long. This is no common garden variety thug from the back blocks

He is a doer of good deeds, our Jakey, a protector of the down-trodden, a chisel-jawed Champion of the oppressed, a soul whose intentions are good.

Why do every weaselly scumbag wimp umpire hate Kingy? ...Perhaps he is the epitome of that school yard bully that used to beat these little turds up for their tuckshop money!

Funny! Spat me Beer back up. :hihi

True though!
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

IMO the umpires are destroying Jakes career he does not get a fair go and is constantly free kicked and hardly receives a free no matter what is done to him
Its almost reached the stage he is becoming a liability out there because they are so eager to pay a free against him
What about them giving Jake a fair go instead of trying to curb his attack on the footy

I concur 100%
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

I find the umpires' attitudes to King surprisingly unprofessional for officials in a professional game, to the extent that the unprofessionalism is a bit embarrassing in comparison to other professional sports. Makes the game look a bit amateur.
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

Amazed how they did not pay that mark around the 12th minute mark of the second quarter!

They kicked a goal shortly after on the rebound. Nearly burst a blood vessel, squeezed the remote that hard it's now rooted.
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

It's bleeding obvious that someone needs to make serious enquiries as to why the umpires hate jake king so much? It's getting out of control ! They just crucify him endlessly
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

Time to lodge a complaint with the anti Discrimination Board. They don't even hide the fact that they clearly have an agenda against king. Do they want him to go postal???? :veryupset :veryupset

It was Jake who said that, wasn't it?

Yeah and Kingy bites ears also.....
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

It's the simple "Pest Rule".

"Your a Pest Jake, those four grabs at the mark aren't enough"

"Your a Pest Jake, getting tapped below the calf isn't a free for you"

"Your a Pest Jake, you made slight contact with the leg and the player got up and played the game out"

"Your a Pest Jake, have two weeks off"

Nothing surer.
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

What about that bullshite last week when he marked after using his midriff to hold position. Whistle, free kick, in the back.
Then I hear that "rules of the game" crap on SEN today saying you can use your body. Well yer der, always been ligit until that utter rubbish last week.

Anyway, we are Richmond we don't need anything from the maggots!!!
