It doesn't end well. I told my brother not to wear sunglasses when umpiring, 1. because you look silly, and 2. the players should be able to see your eyes when you are officiating, but he doesn't listen to me.Reading the match report reminded me of another highlight/lowlight - Nettheim for Sydney is the only player I can remember wearing specs since a Balmain player during their glory days....and who on here can remember back to Geoff Blethyn (Essendon)...number 24 I reckon.
Well Nettheim on Saturday copped a FALCON right on the specs and, hey, wouldn't THAT hurt if you were wearing specs ?
No wonder he went off bleeding !!!
Then this happened. Fractured orbital socket and broken nose, lucky not to lose sight in his eye
