WCE v Carlton

[Jumping Jack Clennett 1,809]

I've just finished watching the 2nd Semi. I can't believe how hopeless the umpiring was in the first half. There were 19 frees in the first quarter, most of them complete mysteries even on slow motion replay on TV. Amazingly, it seemed most went to Carlton, despite the home crowd's roaring.

It was absolutely obvious that the interpretations would differ in the final stages of the game, when they "put their whistles away". There's nothing in the laws to recommend technical frees early, then "free-for-all" late. Chamberlain and his two mates must not be appointed to any more finals. That was a disgrace!

Am I correct in my observation that Scmitt was droppped and forgotten after his disgraceful effort at the Adelaide Oval?

[Satan 2,881]

The umps missed a free to carlton in 2nd q when a wce player went to kick got tackled, missed the ball and still could kick it off the ground, leading to a goal.

Last quarter, a Carlton defender took a mark which was not paid and led to eagle goal

In this game every score counted.

[mordja 187]

Agree, didn't pay the obvious but a million of the mysterious.

Player was Shuey by the way.

[wackojacko 25]

what about the goal in the 2nd quarter to the eagles that clearly crossed the line before being tapped back into play?

[Sir Why You Little 37,125]

Carlscum lost. Thus i approved of all decisions given...

Yes? They got that decision correct

[monoccular 17,573]

I was so pleased for Kennedy to play his part in a finals win over Carlscum, given the disgraceful way they handled both his recruitment, and his scrapping.

Well done Josh - hold your head high for the way you have handled it all -- and, sweet revenge!!!

Was I the only one who was reminded a little bit of the Port game a couple of weeks back? Nowhere near as intense, but there were some similarities. Especially considering the umpiring.

[Whispering_Jack 30,640]

Leaving aside the emotional issue of disliking Carlton, I have to admit that the standard of the umpiring was appalling. It's funny how the number of frees seems so lopsided in some of these interstate fixtures but it doesn't happen that way with games in Melbourne.

I still can't get over some of the umpiring in the Port Adelaide game.

[Forest Demon 4,681]

The constant changes to interpretations and the amount of inconsistent and soft frees have slowly turned me off the sport in general. I used to watch 4 or 5 games a weekend, but lately I find myself channel surfing 10 or 20 minutes in out of frustration.

You are not alone there. Even a couple of journos have commented on it. Yesterday however, when all is said and done, the scum lost, what could be better?

The filthy show ponies have to take control mate. All hell would break loose if they didn't.

Can't have that.

Did anyone notice a bloke called Darling running around last night?

Kicked 3 goals what a bum glad we did not draft him absolutely no idea.

We would not have been able to play him at Casey for 3 years!
