The umpires got even with Thomas as they didn't like his criticism of their ranks in 2005, hence Whispers.
Would you agree with this summation?

If so, are you suggesting that the umpires still cheat against us in 2022 because of this isolated incident 17 years ago?

Do you blame Scott Morrison for John Howard's 2005 policies?
Is Grant Thomas to blame for Max King's goal kicking yips?
Could Rod Butterrs have quashed the Hanneberry deal?

Which umpires cheat and what is their motivation to do so?
You are an ex lawyer, surely motive is relevant in this instance.

How are they cheating against us when we are positive for free kicks in 2022?
Why is the AFL biased against us, does it relate back to 2005?
Why were the umpires cheating in our favor in 2009 & 2010?

I can't help that there are posters on this site that do not understand the rules of AFL football and can only fall back on bias, cheating and conspiracy to explain inconsistencies, difficult rules to adjudicate & sometimes incompetence.

Perhaps there is an anti Saint umpire in the ranks, perhaps some Saints were mouthing off from time to time and this had a negative effect in some instances, and other possibilities. But this moronic insistence week in week out that all umpires are blatant cheats and we are on the bad end of every AFL & umpiring decision is pure fantasy and the ramblings of individuals with an extremely low IQ.
You don't really expect a civil answer to the crap posted by you do you? More than happy with the umpiring this year anyway and glad to see you acknowledge that umpires can and do cheat for whatever reason.

I do understand the rules as do most followers of the game do despite your 'ramblings" to the contrary.
I am of no doubt that Whispers in the sky was true and that those umpires deliberately favored Freo.

Perhaps as an avid follower of the games with a clear understanding of the rules you could share with me another instance since Whispers in the sky where umpires cheated against St Kilda, better still Blatantly Cheated.

2009 GF the umpire put his whistle to his mouth when Sneider was clearly held then refused to pay a free kick.

Well, haven't we all strayed from the topic?

Two or three posts about the disgusting abuse that female umpires have had to endure and then it descended into a tit-for-tat quote fest.

Isn't there a whole separate thread to put your whinges about umpiring?

Yes and no I suppose. Yes the female umpires have been subjected to abuse, sexual harassment and sexist comments with the bulk of it coming from in house...from their fellow umpires and coaches. Poor show all round.

MOD EDIT……..Poster suspended for 24 hours for personal abuse

They cop it from everywhere, including from old blokes on internet fan forums.

Glouftsis, the first female field umpire at AFL level, said: “While umpiring juniors through to state league level, I’ve worn uniforms that don’t fit, used change rooms that impose segregation and have had my ability to perform questioned due to my gender by spectators, players, coaches, the media, umpiring peers and umpiring coaches”.


All posters are equal, but some posters are more equal than others.
