    Favourite umpires

    We all know they cop negativity 99% of the time but as a reversal who were or are the ones we actually liked over the years ?
    I will go with Glen James , I believe he was a player favourite too.
    I also have enjoyed David Rodan as a goal umpire, has a great attitude and makes it fun, very positive.
    The 60s to 80s had some very likeable umpires.

      I liked the 'old school' umpires who would give as good as they got. Peter Carey and that vintage. With umpire mic's those times are long gone though.

      Of the current crop, Eleni Gloutsis I like. Very good decision maker.

          Funny thing is they get most decisions right, especially when you watch the replay.

              Glenn James I didn't mind
