50 metre penalities

[Solar]

are the umpires over excited at the idea of paying these?

the couple port got were 50/50 at best and ours ways also soft

do we need a new shorter penalty?

[SaintDebi]

and if they insist on paying soft iffy 50 metre penalties then at least they should be consistant and pay them at both ends.

see this is not a "they are against us" thread, I just think that it's such a big penalty.

It got them their only first half goal too!

Its a major concern . Its not being applied for whence it came in for, and it ends up being a way too harsh a penalty.

Their two fifties were fifty fifty?

I thought Bakes penalty was a joke and Kings was line ball. As regards to introducing an option to the umpires of a twenty or twenty five meter penalty, I thought Matthews and Buckleys comments of bringing the umpires even more into the game and making calls that influence the game more subjective instead of objective were spot on.

I didn't think neither one warranted a 50, a classic case of over umpiring. I thought they were very ordinary all night, they paid stuff that was hardly even there and then they let a hell of a lot go......the amount of throws Port got a way with was astounding IMO.
