Clintosaurus

The only disruption is to supporters crying about losing a player - the club is fine and would have plans in place for any scenario.

@picket fenceyou needed this

This is almost the zenith of MFCSS.

Listened to the rest on the way home. Geez Andy got even more fired up. Cussing and shouting. I would recommend watching 100-7 to calm down a little.

Geez Andy's MFCSS got a bit fired up!!! Lucky @binman wasn't in the same room or he may have copped one.

For some, it is the end of the world if we lose any game. Others it gives strength to - you never see them when we win.

I'm not saying intentionally influencing ladder positions, but the opportunity is there for some teams (Carlton and Collingwood as I have mentioned) to benefit from the good run provided by the umps. It could be as simple as the umpires' coaches mentioning to umpires that certain players are being regularly held in marking contests and to be aware of it. McKay and Curnow the obvious ones. Clarry and Josh Kelly get held at every stoppage but rarely get frees for it. Guess the umpires coaches don't talk about it.

This. Umpiring does impact ladder positions. Carlton and Collingwood getting help on this front. Sometimes teams aren't good enough to take advantage of the help though. But it's there. Dogs have had it for years. Things like the rule of the week have influence too.

Not rigged, but at least an element of manipulation

He'll play

HQ want everything decided in Round 23.

Umps trying to get the Lions home

Gold Coast are a real footy club now

Their luck will run out. What a bunch of cheats, ducking for frees all day. Sadly they are being umpired to the top 4.

Norf are gone already. Pies will win by 30.

Umpires know only one direction to point. Must want their car keys back.

And they probably showed more than they would have wanted to.

We'll thump them in the finals.

July Premiers. Won't beat us at the G.

Clear throw. Joke

Defensive transition is atrocious tonight.

We are conceding too much of the ground to them

8 metre kick paid a mark. To them of course.

That was HTB against Hawkins

Lovely goal. Another 10 please.
