Correct. As Grimes was falling to the ground with Fev in his back the umpire paid the free. Grimes had just picked up the ball and had not even stood up, he was still hunched down when tackled. Along with the TV commentators who i heard when I got home, I agree it was disgraceful. The umpire was number 24 Jennings. That was one of a number of shockers by him, including taking a great mark off Bennell close to goal. It may have been his first game. He was given the ball to carry off at the end and the two boundary umpires ran to him as soon as the siren sounded.
If it was his first game I don't want to destroy his umpiring career, I actually think he did it himself last night. That was the worst display by an umpire in a senior match that I can recall. I am glad it didn't cost us the game. In my opinion he could have been involved in 20 incorrect decisions throughout the night.
Anyway, enough of umpire bashing, more importantly we played fantastic footy and we won and the boys were great.
