In the past 5 years, Geelong have never lost a game when either Andrew Stephens (12 games) or Nathan Willamson (10 games) have officiated.

In 11 Brisbane games Simon Meredith has umpired, the Lions have had a 72.7% winning rate.

Melbourne boasts its strongest winning percentage when Andrew Stephens is officiating, winning 76.9% of games. The Dees have won 68.8% with Ray Chamberlain

GWS have a winning % of 80 with Dean Margetts.

The dogs have a 72.7% winning rate with Chris Donlon

Port Adelaide win 90% with Leigh Haussen umpiring but only 36.4% with Jeff Dalgleish.

Power have won 66.7% of their games when Ray Chamberlain had the whistle.

Sydney has won 80% of their games under either Hayden Gavine and Andre Gianfagna.

* These stats are for the last 5 years with a minimum 10 games umpired. No mention of West Coast and Margetts!

    Hopefully the git has been spoken to.

    Not sure if the same umpire but the one they didn't pay against Sellwood was just as bad - he had one single intention - putting the ball out of play - remarkable he got away with it particularly given the circumstances

    What a ridiculous thread and completely silly time to bring up the notion of umpire bias...

    It's like you're daring the Red Fox.

    Any qualifiers here? Do some umpires tend to officiate more often at certain venues, such that an existing home-ground advantage is already in play? I note that most of the clubs mentioned are non-Melbourne based.

    Incidentally, these stats are meaningless.  They are correlative not causative.  The percentage victories of the team has little to do with the umpire designated to that game.  It would be more value to review the number of free kicks, or differential, per team compared to average of all umpires officiating that team.  This would begin to expose any *unconscious* bias.

    The central controlling umpire at the time was Stevic. He didn't call Gus's "indescretion" same as he didn't call Selwoods. 

    Fleer was the forward umpire who should never have even made the call against Gus, as it wasn't in his controlling area ( apart from being blatantly wrong).

    This post is probably fifty five percent correct.

    Don't mind Razor, usually pays 1 howler a game but other than that he's pretty solid.

    No idea. There was an aricle on Fox footy about it.

    It doesn' t mean anything of itself. It simply looks at the numbers. It doesn't claim there is bias or otherwise. Just presenting facts.

    I've always loved Donlan Chamberlain and FLeer.

    My favourite umpires in the whole world (in case they are reading...)

    Because he set-up our win!

    Anyone know of a good interview with an umpire about the pressure and public recognition they might get? Must be intense, and often confrontational.

    He promised to get it right next time?

    He hates us and the feeling is very mutual.

    Hoping Razor Ray’s Melbourne %age goes to over 70 tonight.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
