    This is the most embarrassing spectacle I've seen from an umpiring group in a very long time.

    The AFL's a disgrace.

      Is there a game of footy tonight? The movement around the umpires of guys dressed like footballers is ruining this marvellous spectacle of umpiring. And the crowd is too loud for some of the whistles, and they're being blown really well. Great umpiring. Just amazing stuff.

        Channel 7 have now created a new stat called a Rioli. Cringeworthy.
        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

          It's amazing what you can do to Port at home when you get 25% more free kicks than they do, rather than less than 45% of what they're awarded.

            That's now 30% Jeemak.

                What kind of dickhead doesn't take a shot from the pocket, three goals down with only a minute or two to go from 30m out?

                    I honestly don't know why the media or anyone would continue to make excuses for Port Adelaide. They're supremely ordinary.

                    For some reason they escape the scrutiny they should be subjected to. They get a great home ground advantage, the lot. They should be better.

                        In the modern age of footballers having to smart to learn systems, it's good to know there's still some really dumb ones around.

                        Agree on the media excuses of this mob, they've got no real excuses but keep avoiding the real heat which is long overdue.

                          Bruce just about needs an intervention over his Cyril fixation.

                          And the umpiring of Hawthorns matches is now farcical.
                          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                            Their ball movement is poor and their distribution is poor off half back.
                            They're a bottom 8 side, full stop .
                            Koch and Thomas have no idea to be honest .Theyve lost more games than they've won since mid 14!
                            Hawthorn are going to finish one or two (sadly) Clarkson was right in what he said about port .

                              So does Brereton . It's 50 shades of Cyril with Bruce and Dermie

                                How does Hodge get the preferential treatment he gets. He seems to have umpires bluffed. He also had the Port players bluffed.

                                His knee into Boak was a clear premeditated act, that did not even result in a free. He clearly showed intent and other players have been suspended for much, much less. I guarantee it won't even be considered by MRP.
