Worst umpiring ever

Any game with Troy Pannell. But yes, that one was a standout.

Not the first time old mate Mollison has blatantly umpired poorly against us either.

Sheedy would’ve stood there after the game and pointed to the EFC emblem in his polo as the CHumps walked off. Brad won’t do anything about it but I did like how he described a ‘series of unfortunate events’ changed the momentum in the third.

I stopped watching when they really strated screwing us with the non call on drapers front contact.

I have no faith in any AFL games now. Its rubbish and I have lost all interest

I’d like to think the umpiring couldn’t get any more biased/borderline corrupt than that, buuuuuuuut…

we’re playing Collingwood next week…

The ghost of Scott McLaren still looms large.

That was the worst umpiring I had ever seen. I genuinely thought supporters were going to storm the ground in protest.

Closely rivaled by Anzac Day. You know the one….

Can’t believe the game Hirdy called them out and was penalised has been forgotten. It was atrocious.

That third qtr was so bad I left the ground last night and went home during the third quarter.

And let’s not forget the holding the ball decisions that we didn’t get, two very close together around the 50m mark that should’ve gone our way.

The whole sequence started with a terrible missed holding the ball on the wing which “fell” out to a Geelong player who pumped it forward and resulted in a goal. That put them back in front.

In the good old days the ground would have been showered with bottles and cans thrown from the stands in the third quarter.
Now meek acceptance, and some irate social media posts.

So you allow this, but not my Harley Reid thread.

BOOOOOOOOO BOOOOOOOOOOO

The game is ■■■■■■ and a very clear rule is all too often completely misunderstood by the umpires. 2 metres is not 9 metres but then again, I see 8 - 10 metre short passes in the forward line often paid as marks as if they travelled 15 metres

At the game. I was watching seagulls fly around in the last qtr waiting for it to end. Ruined a good footy game

Want to see worst ever, watch the Saints/Port game, yikes.

Same. Absolutely disgusting. Left at 3/4 time as it was inevitable.

Ditto.

Would’ve left about the 20min mark.

There were many obvious ones. But we also got ZERO of the 50/50 ones. And the blatant 50m penalties that could’ve been awarded, ZERO.
