Once again yesterday - Razor had it all about "me me me me me"
When we got that 50m penalty (that led to Jack G's goal) my mate and I were both saying that it would come back to bite us.
And sure enough later on (in the last Q I think) on the same side of the ground he plucked one out while he was non-officiating umpire. I can't even remember now if it was a throw-in or a mark - but what he "saw" from 50m away just didn't happen.
Surely this bloke must pizz off even his fellow umpires with the way he tries to impose himself on the game.

He called several frees from over 50m away yesterday when the controlling umpire was a few metres away. He really thinks he is special.
2 decisions had me Fked yesterday
The first one, Right in front of me, cotchin gets pinged for throwing it. Treloar does it every week and does it multiple times and never gets pinged.
The 2nd one Ellis running into forward 50, paid holding the ball, firstly he kicked it and secondly he had the ball less them a second.
Both vomit decisions.
Even on our home ground yesterday, it was evident they weren’t going to favour us from the first 5 minutes.

Ray was a lot better yesterday than whoever number 10 was... back to the bush for him
Tenacious, any chance of changing the title to Ray Chamberlain is a dead set c.........
watching live it was pretty clear Westoff was punching the ball away, not trying to touch it before it went out, even Hinkley acknowledged that. that is 50mtrs.
The 50 he gave against us was wrong. Edwards came from the side of the mark and took over the mark form Stack. 50 was piad cos they thought he came from over the mark, which he did not.
Still prob not as bad as the free paid against BEllis for kicking the ball when he was running down the middle of the ground. (funnily enough a similar free was just paid against Balta when he clearly handballed it when tackled.)
true, sometimes umpires stuff up and don't call it. But it's still incorrect disposal.
Agree, I think his name is Robert O'Gorman or something similar, we've had him a couple of times this year and crucified us every time. Tiger supporters must have picked on him as a kid, he *smile* hates us
The Cotchin one was spot on. I always look at the reaction of the offending player. Cotch didn't complain at all. It was a clearthrow when I watched it back on the scoreboard. Not sure why that got you all riled up.
There were numerous decisions that weren't paid to us yesterday that could have got you all riled, but you pick out one of the ones that was 100% a free kick.
if you are being tackled and drop the ball on the ground, that's incorrect disposal. I hate the Umps as much as anyone but let's try to keep the hysteria down to a dull roar.
Absolutely. Cotch's was a free, Ellis' was also a free against.

Punt Road End. The best place to watch The Tiges.
As the resident umpire basher said at the game yesterday. "damn you TV for proving me wrong"
