For me, the two guys who umpired the West Coast game we’re pretty good in the end - they didn’t let the home crowd get to them

    Anyone but Nicholls. He’s a plague on humanity that stupid blind [censored].

    Those from our last two weeks, thought overall both games were umpired fairly and quite consistently.

     

    Nicholls, if the umpiring department is serious, should be on holiday in Bali for the month

    Not those pieces of Schmitt, Pannell, Margetts, Nicholls or Chamberlain. 

    I actually don't mind Razor.  Despite his theatrics his decision making is usually pretty spot on.  His low five with Gus was pretty funny too!

    Not Schmutt. He's a show pony and a boofhead. Wallace.... no no no no. Neither Nicholls nor Chamberlain either. We want the umpire with the slightest scintilla of decency and humanity and feel for the game. Whichever that one is , we want him.

    Nicholls and Pannell are two of the worst umpires of all time they do my head in .However l don't mind Chamberlain, ( Razor Ray) because of the friendship he has with Angus Brayshaw.   haha.

    Wouldn’t mind having Rodan as one of the goal umps and seeing him give a cheeky grin for each of our 20 goals.

    I can't name the ones I want because I don't know their names. That's how it should be. I only know the names of the ones I hate.

    I think Shmitt  has been ok for us this year No Nichols no Chamberlain

    If we get Nicholls you know we won't be winning. Have we won a game he has umpired since Maxy got the 'what did you do that for'?

    Honestly couldn’t care less who the umpires are. Hope it’s Nicholls, Chamberlain and Pannell just for a bit of entertainment in seeing you all get wound up, because at the end of day it will not make a lick of difference.

    Funny how you get on a site sometimes and make a statement that you rue putting into the ether, ahh well.......

    Nah, I’m pretty happy with it. Here’s how it will go down:

    1) the umpires will make a number of very borderline decisions and a few blatantly wrong ones, because our game is hard to umpire and our umpires are part timers

    2) there will be one or two very controversial ones that directly create goals. If they go against us, it means they’ve been orchestrated by the AFL to ensure Geelong win

    3) Any free paid against us by Nicholls or one of the other high profile umps is just further proof that they hate us.

    4) if we win, the umpiring will be forgotten in an instant. If we lose it’s “We’re not blaming the umpiring, but...”

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
