Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!

Can't believe the free to gazza early in the game after he dragged it in 3 separate times. Plus Maric's mark not payed
 
Thought we got reamed in the first half, but I guess they let play go for most of the day. No doubt the 'name' players in Ablett and Cotchin received special consideration at times.

Seems to be open slather on our players in marking contests, whether it's being grabbed with both arms or charged.
 
Giesch downtrodden from Richmond's first win against Gold Coast has brought in the full artillery this week.

McBurney.

???
 
Can't believe that hack can get one of the best games of the round. The sort of bloke that got picked on at school and never recovered.

We have had a terrible run from umps in Freo games. Lyon has probably been on phone to umpires office all week
 
I just don't understand the holding the ball and incorrect disposal interpretations anymore. Just so inconsistent.
 
The umpires were shocking all day, they tried there very best to get freo back into the game in the 3rd qtr.
Mcburney hates us
 
The "Quick Draw McGraw" was back on Saturday.

Our lads lay a textbook holding the ball ,gets called playon a few mins later a Hawks player tackles a Richmond player and the umpire blows the whistle for holding the ball to the Hawks a millionth of a millisecond after the tackle was laid,decision in the umpires head was already made before the tackle it seems.

It's those events which tell you when you have a bias umpire at work.

Disgraceful umpiring.

Wait to see what dish we get served up this week at Giesch's Hell's Kitchen.
