Next year, Umpires

[WellardSaint]

There's weird news on Twitter...
4 umps next yr?
Is that just preseason, or is it normal season?

[D.B.Cooper]

I wonder what the criteria is for recruiting new umpires?

#1 - must be prepared to blatantly cheat against St Kilda as sanctioned by the AFL

#2 - must be able to follow direction and training by Nick Foot and the girl umpire and all of the other umpires who hate the Saints

#3 - must be supportive of Ben Long now he is no longer a Saints player

The great Frankie Vergona. He was a brilliant umpire - if you were Fred Cook. He loved paying frees to Freddie in the goal square in front of the Burrough faithful.

You were very quiet when Curly tipped us off to the Ratten sacking.

Please change your avatar (my second request to you re this)
I felt it was completely disrespectful when you used Richo's photo and it's no less disrespectful with Ratt's photo.
It's one thing to call yourself 'The Dud' but it's another thing altogether to use somebody's other than your own photo attached to that nic.

Tipped us off?? He posted something 'might' happen less than an hour before my mum texted me the same thing. I don't think Barrett or McClure are looking over their shoulder...

Plus the bloke legitimately thinks the tribunal looks at the draw before handing out suspensions to make sure the players return to play against us... it'll take a lot of "scoops" to overcome that level of embarrassment!

Disrespectful?? People inside and outside of football get called all sorts of things on here. I noticed you don't have a problem undermining a persons professional integrity by calling them a 'cheat'...

Is calling someone a hypocrite also disrespectful?

WTF, who did I call a cheat?

You have a go at me for saying Ratten is/was a dud as a senior coach, didn't say anything to Curly though about calling an umpire a cheat, in fact you jumped to his defense. Disrespectful?

Who do you suggest I change the pic to? When a new 'dud' emerges I will happily change it, not much going on at the moment though.

You don't even understand (or willfully ignore) the point I'm making.
I've got no issue with you calling anybody a Dud - I've got an issue of you using a photograph of Richo or Ratten attached to your nick.

Ratten is no longer at our Club - yet you feel it's appropriate to continue to use his photo.

Uh... what?

You don't have a problem with me calling him 'a dud', but you have a problem with the medium I use to do it...?

[D.B.Cooper]

Any way I'm sue

Hi Sue, nice to meet you

[SaintPav]

Well, this is all a bit unnecessary.

Is this thread telling us if all the new appointments fail to make a difference then we are up Dawson's Creek ?

Yes, the photo attached to your Nic is my issue, as I’ve told you repeatedly.

Does being an arsehole come natural to you or do you have to work at it?

That’s not very nice or respectful.

But luckily you said it with words and not an image, which is different apparently
