Riewoldt's disallowed mark on the city wing !

Fair dinkum (to borrow a hippie phrase) - What more could he have done ?

Then 10 minutes later Ray gets paid a soft mark that he had half a grab of.
Let's hope those two don't go on the "How to umpire" DVD or there will be total confusion

Umpires really do not cut Nick a break, do they. Goal assist to BJ - throw. Clear goal - touched. Him and a WC player crashing into each other - free kick against Nick, though the other player did not have eyes for the ball.

Jeeeesus.

he got a slight push in the back on every lead to send him under the ball... tunneling very secretly they were.

Umpires need to give nick a fair go but sometimes nick exaggerates

he gets monstered everytime he takes a mark...no protection given to him at all by the white maggots....

he gets thrown to the ground after every mark he takes, started by the dog Hargraves....

He is definitely pushed virtually every contest.

But, he now needs to work through this and find a way of either making it obvious to the umps or stopping it being effective.

He kicked a legitimate goal too which was apparently touched.

And then he gave off a handball to Goddard who goaled which was apparently a throw.

I never said he does not get monstered
