Can we kill off the ‘umpires always screw us’ myth yet??

BTW, didn’t see anyone blowing their lid with King’s ‘Hawkins push’ in the goal square in the second!
And so it continues - scab picking

In last night's game we had 11 frees one minute into the second quarter including some very soft ones . Feels weird when we get those , however normal service was resumed as we only received 10 more frees for the rest of the match.

Watching bulldogs and the love umps have for them...why are they continually receiving soft frees but appear to get away with a lot....

50/50s generally in their favour

Watching Bulldogs v Adelaide and incredibly lop-sided free count in the Bulldogs favour. (24-10)

This has been going on now for several years. Why?

24-10 Dogs way.
Even with an extra 3 players on the ground, they couldn't beat the Crows.

The first 7 frees for the game (plus a 50m penalty) going our way was interesting, lucky it wasn't the reverse or this place might have burnt down!

Didn't you know the umpires blatantly cheated PA to victory on Saturday evening?

Yep. The onfield mic's picked up them yelling "chewy on ya boot!" every time we were lining up for goal!

Despicable.

Given the only 50 that resulted in a goal went there way. Still a 50 no one knows why it was awarded.

Because we are in positive territory in free kicks received and you can no longer bitch and moan over the inequity of the total numbers, you are reverting to specific decisions that may or may not have gone against us.

Do straws and clutching mean anything to ya Curly?

Was that 50 blatant cheating Curly?
Was it part of the AFL conspiracy to keep the saints downtrodden?

What was the 50 for?
It should be explained, it can’t be for jack running through
I have read it could be dissent, but from where, it was a mark??

How did King kick his first goal amid our 7-0 free kick count to start the game..? :roll:

Giving a 50 to a bloke at the top of the goal square is hardly a gift. On the flip side awarding a 50 which still no one knows what for 70 out is a gift.
