Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!

We are playing the umpires pets this week in NM, it is a absolute certainty that we will NOT win the free kick count.

Was it just me or did we get an armchair ride from the umpires yesterday bar a couple of shockers ? I felt like a Geelong supporter most of the day.

We are way way way way behind the Eagles (and a few others)

definitely. wish it was this week though... the umpires robbed us against north last year and they owe us one.
 
Well we got our one favoured game of the year not surprisingly against the poor ole Saints who smell according to the fluro green.
Expect them to do a 180 next week against their favourite team.

We sure did. Felt like I was watching the wrong team. Good run with the umps, playing well, opposition turning it over... it was very enjoyable.

We got a good ride with the Saints earlier in the year, too.

We've had Nick Foot for three games & three wins in 2013 - St.Kilda x 2 and Melbourne. Once last year v Melbourne (win). Is there such a thing as a lucky umpire?

Yep his name is Matt Stevic (Umpire No 9) and he is very lucky for any team that plays Richmond.
Stevic and the bald guy, Nicolls. Those two are the worst as far as our games go. I shudder whenever I see them at the beginning of any Tiger match.

Razor Ray is the best!

Yeah, most of them are lucky that they get to keep their jobs.

Bannister and McBurney.

They are the fearsome four,the dread of all Tiger fans.
 
Well, get ready for an umpiring disaster. The maggots for our game are Donlon, Margetts and Bannister. Watch for holding the ball agin us.
 
Why have a go at the umps before the game? Who knows they may have a good game and give us parity in the stoppages.
If they screw us then of course they are fair game.
 
These umps are useless >:( deledio marks three metres inside and gets put on the most acute angle !!!

Oops greenwood just got a bullcrap free gosl
 
Bannister is the shitest umpire.
How desperate is the AFL hiring this clown
Destroyed us today
