    This weeks Umpires

    One thing that happens when we have a big win is that there is not much talk about the umpires. Some have even commented that they did a good job.

    Well, the honeymoon is over.

          When the 96PF was on FFC the week before last, I did notice one D Goldstink was one of the umpires. What has happened since then???

          Lets not get ourselves worked up about the umps yet - save that for when we win big, but should have won by more but they gave away a few goals from frees that weren't there

          I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

          If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

              In reference to my anecdote about that supporter from Queenstown on the west coast of Tassie,I think we need to fly her up to Manuka especially to enlighten this week's umpires.

                      Goldstink represents at least a 4-goal handicap to Norff straight away. This is the minimum number of soft frees per game that he pay's against Leo -- usually within range of goals.

                      I do think last Sunday's umps were good. They kept the game flowing which helped us no end -- not to mention free kicks to Bazza! But we do seem a little better at not falling on the ball as much.
                      To all those people who waited 72 years to see a South Melbourne/Sydney Swans premiership HERE IT IS!!

                          Actually, to be fair to the maggots, I thought the umpiring was pretty good in all the games I saw. Tho I believe the Crows were a bit shirty with their treatment.
