By the way, can you please send me my Bounty in a refigerated satchel? I hate it when they get melted...

Re: BOUNTY OFFERED!
Gee, this bloody "umpires against us" cost us the game rubbish is just that. We played crap football today, sure a few decisions went against us but umpires dont cost you a game when you loose by so much for gods sake. Start honing in on the real factors that need to be scrutinized by the RFC in making a real challenge in terms of making it a genuine finals contender.

Oh, yes, I love Bounties. I seem to have better fortune with coconuts than Keith Richards.

Re: BOUNTY OFFERED!
Hey Tuby, where in this thread did anybody - including myself - blame the loss today on the umpires?
I was commenting on some conspicuoulsy appalling decisions the past few weeks (something I've scarcely had cause to do in 30 years of conscious supporting of the Tigers) - for example the one against Petts today - not helping the situation, but seriously we could have had a 1000 frees today and we'd have likely still left Tassie without four points.
When the commentators - even generally biased Perth-based ones are as perplexed as myself then something has to be up.

Re: BOUNTY OFFERED!
When we get a good run from the umps - it is when we are playing well and are 1st to the ball.
When we are 2nd to the ball we get flogged by the umps.
However - two that got so far up my nose today were -
A Tiger play in a backflank groundball pack had his head almost stretched off his shoulders - the ball could not come out and you guessed it we got pinged for holding the ball
Foley was penalised for jumping into the back of a tall hawk when both players were on their knees on the ground - ball being in front of the hawk - who lunged forward - Foley too lunged forward from behind the hawk player and in doing so jumped all over the Hawks back - yes it was a free kick to hawthorn - correct decision. Less than two minutes latter Tambling is jumped all over in exactly the same ciircumstances - both players on their knees lunging at the ball - this time Tambling was in front and the hawk jumped into his back - ball up - same umpire - thats when I did the nanna - left the room - tried to cool off!
