      I don't think I've ever heard him say that he didn't actually see Leo take "The Mark"!
      I remember being almost too scared to look myself, but delighted that I did.
      It's engraved in my mind.
      A wonderful moment.

          I saw the mark but it wasn't until you see the photo and the holding jumpers that you wonder how close it could have come to being awarded as a free kick against the Swans.

          Would have been a very brave umpire.

              Nah the umps generally put the whistle away in the last half of a GF and it showed again in today's game. Unless it was something extraordinary they never would of paid a free in the leo pack mark.

                  It's just a shame normal games aren't umpired the same way. How good is to watch when the umps let the players decide the contest.

                      I don't believe that the GF should be umpired at a different level than the home and away season. The umpires should adjudicate at a consistent level throughout the year, regardless of the occasion.

                      I know this probably won't happen, but a girl's gotta dream!

                          Erica, I think it's more a case of most people wish the rest of the other games were umpired like the GF is umpired. The over officiation of H&A games is a blight on our game.

                              Absolutely true, goswannie14. No umpiring consistency throughout the year.
