Since Luke Power was reported for charging Craig Bolton why wasn't Bolton awarded a 50 metre penalty? Umpires are crap!

Matt I disagree on that one. He wasn't in the contest. Bolton was setting himself to take the mark when Power simply charged him without an intent of a correct spoil, he didn't even disguise it. If he gets off it is a joke.Comment

He took the mark.
Just a brain fade from the umpire, how could you report Power but not award 50?Driver of the Dan Hannebery bandwagon....all aboard. 4th April 09Comment

Was "amusing" to hear Lynch immediately state there was nothing in it and point out that Power and Bolton are great mates.
Power had no chance of competing for that ball and he left the ground and hit Bolton with force. I wonder if he was aware who he was hitting - not his mate Bolton but the Bolton who was doing a pretty decent job at keeping their obvious matchwinner under control.Comment

Just had a read of what the Brisbane fans on BF are saying about it.
Apparently it is the worst report so far this season, barely even a free kick even. Thought about responding but thought better of it. Would probably be accused of sour grapes because we "lost".
Given a choice, would rather Power got suspended than Roe. Roe's actions probably saved him injury and made little difference to Brennan's. Indeed, it may even have lessened the impact on Brennan compared to a head on head collision.
At best, Power's was a monumental lack of judgement and he had a choice not to contest a ball he was never going to get to.Comment

If a mark was paid then he should of (and most likely would of) paid 50.
