Like climbing goalposts?
That’s where “sensible umpiring” comes in.

I dont really agree, but that is the Umpires call, as was the mark. Doesn’t mean Ryan is not a cheat.
Compensates for when Nankervis whacked Draper across the head about 20 out.
Didn’t get near the ball, and considering they pay them even when they do get some ball.
And I forgot the obligatory “grey area” built into rules. Silly me.
I’ll be telling people on my deathbed that we were robbed on Anzac Day 2019

If Samson Ryan told the umpire he didn’t mark it would he have given away 50 for dissent?

How is it that these “professional” umpires can’t see blatant head ducking. That’s 3 in the first half.

Nice to see the maggots trying to help out the outclassed underdog.
Of course they had no fkg intention of doing anything like that for the last ten fkg years when we were the underdog. Especially that year the fkg AFL railroaded us to lose a full team of players.
No front on contact to weideman ?

When did they change the pay the mark to the man in front rule. Weird.

Bizarre
If you want to see the worst umpiring I have seen for some time feel free to watch The Suns vs The Bulldogs last quarter. The only explanation is that the umpires had $50 on the Doggies to win. Just appalling umpiring.

After that Naughton shot hit the post (which I called immediately), I’m surprised the umpire didn’t overrule the review guy.
