GF umpiring below par

The 2010 pre-season was noteable for the general quality of umpiring. So too the 2011 pre-season — right up to the Grand Final.

Fans of both sides in the GF had ample reason to be, by turns, angry, confused, non-plussed, amazed, incredulous, bewildered and staggered.

Not the whistleblowers’ finest hour!

Jeff, we know that consistency from round to round is a big ask, but surely we can expect it from quarter to quarter? Or even pack to pack?

Release the Giesch!

Memo to those doing the reading for the two Barcodes-supporting buffoons sitting behind me: Yes, we know you won the Premiership in 1990, and yes, you flogged the Bombers. You don’t have to tell us every five minutes. Pulling on black and white garb doesn’t have to mean that you resign your membership of the human race as well.
