The stand rule is the only rule that the umps are consistent with too. They consistently let the player with the ball move a few metres off his line before calling play-on.the only rule the Umps are clear on now is "Stand"

Except if it’s a tigers…..look like moving off the line and it’s called play onThe stand rule is the only rule that the umps are consistent with too. They consistently let the player with the ball move a few metres off his line before calling play-on.
Look like? It’s more like think about it.Except if it’s a tigers…..look like moving off the line and it’s called play on
Yeah in all seriousness do other teams get called to play on as quickly as RFC players do? I don’t watch other games anymore so don’t know.Except if it’s a tigers…..look like moving off the line and it’s called play on
Oooooh oooooh oooooh. I know this one. Dropping the ball starts only if you've been spun 720 in a tackle that's been held for at least twenty seconds by the tackler. But never applies or is relevant to any player wearing a Tigers jumper.B) where spilled out in the tackle stops and dropping the ball starts.
Including boundary umps. That out of bounce that wasn’t called when the player was in the second level of the stand was deplorable.The AFL need to search far and wide for some decent umpires. Go to the bush and you can find heaps of better umps. The current batch of umps are *smile* useless.

Nope. Loss against Port comes to mind.Not the 1st time thats happened to us this season either
And three times ball was out the circle from the bounce but play on. I cant recall when that’s happened before.As bad as we were, the umpiring tonight was pathetic. 2 decisions in the first quarter cost us 2 Goals and then it got worse.
3 times your being generousAnd three times ball was out the circle from the bounce but play on. I cant recall when that’s happened before.
It all starts with the holding the ball rule.. Pay holding the ball and the game will correct itself. What we are seeing is players are tackling and because the whistle isn't being blown the tackler will not let go and we start getting into ' DANGEROUS TACKLE ' Also we are seeing players with the ball knowing they won't get penalised. Pay holding the ball and players will spread and not cause the scrum type play..We can blame the umpires for inconsistency or we can blame the rules and the AFL.
The AFL has basically made good consistent umpiring impossible. The holding the ball rule is a fiasco. The MRP is a fiasco.
I agree we have some garbage umpires but they are umpiring with garbage rules and interpretation of rules.
It may be harsh but maybe the umpires need to even stronger in the HTB determination. So often players aren’t disposing the ball because they don’t like the option (or there are none) so they allow themselves to be tackled and it’s a ball up. These instances are split second stuff, not blatant but IMO they’re there.It all starts with the holding the ball rule.. Pay holding the ball and the game will correct itself.
