Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!

Are you counting 2024? Otherwise I can't see 77 games.
I can have another look, it was literally a quick calculation.
All from AFL Tables at my end, figure you are using the same source.
DS
yep AFL Tables.
I'm counting finals games as well. They played a home EF in 2019 and a home SF in 2017, there's the extra 2
Aha, that would explain it, I didn't include finals. Not sure I would include finals as they are umpired differently, but no correct answer on that question.
DS
Yeah, everyone knows finals are umpired differently and accepts it but I still can’t manage to find a copy of the AFL Laws of the Game, Finals Edition…
Pity these drug *smile* *smile* heads couldn’t be replaced as “injured” before games. We’d only get more drug *smile* *smile* heads.
What would happen if they were all drug *smile*? Ahh, they get the Richmond games to umpire.
Cheating corrupt drug addled *smile* wits

I often wonder who is communicating to the Umpires on the field? Has it been Dan Richardson in their ear piece. No doubt someone is controlling the narrative. What we are seeing is real, controlled and orchestrated cheating. No doubt about it. We should Start a new chant and sing it loudly when we see clear cheating. Yell "Feat, Feat Feat" short for fecking cheats... Make it known we are over it!
that game was outrageous
My view is they get the best umpires. So week 1 still pretty average then after that you are down to the six and now eight best umpires.
Deboy has 4 finals in 11 years.
So the highest home ground free kick differential per game in the league is Adelaide's +3.46.
The average not including Richmond's numbers is +1.53.
The second lowest is GWS with -0.32 (the only other one below zero).
And Richmond's is -2.43.
Across 7 and a bit years of data.
Really astounding numbers especially considering how successful we've been for most of that time.

And it got to the point the players just stopped tackling all together. They felt exactly what the crowd were screaming, "Don't touch him, you'll give away a free". Don't get me wrong, Port won the game, but the differential was exacerbated by the umpiring.
Then you get the fat *smile* Robinson write how poor the Tigers endeavour was in the second half! *smile* Robinson, watch the game, that'll tell you why!
It’s felt like this for ages, watching the game but waiting for the umpire to pull out a bs free kick to the oppo.
and funnily enough we havent been done over by the umps as consistently in finals.
By that stage he’s so drunk that he can’t see the game properly.
These score reviews are getting ridiculous. First one in the pies lions game has missed the post by a foot with the umpire in the middle of the goals.
They need to change the rule on this so it's only reviewed if the umpire thinks it's a point. Goals are automatically reviewed on the way back to the middle. If they can't work it out in that 30 seconds the call just stands as a goal

Correct. If the ump thinks it's a goal then call it a goal. If they think it's a behind but not 100% only then call for a review
I guess the answer was “yes”, Collingwood 30 frees to Brisbane 20. Suspected their period of being punished by the umps would be short lived.
Yep, not too hard as we also saw this develop in the 2nds. Something in that mist.
