Umpiring on pay tv games

Post: # 786604Post mr six o'clock »

Is it just me , or do the AFL have better umpires working on the free to air games . generally fridays games you dont notice them. whereas tonights game was poorly umpired , shite decisions paid both ways although i think the swans were slightly favoured. ( crowd factor )

Well seeing as the decisions on who does what games are done in October prior..hardly likely

I think your issue might be that you only notice rubbish umpiring when it affects St Kilda

Surely they don't select the umpires in October!
