Shoving him over :lol: :lol:

It wouldn't have pushed over a little kid.

^ No, it was just more gutless sore-loserville shit from Salem - but some people seem to think it's OK.

Lol Ginnivan did not dive, he was shoved to the ground and wasn’t expecting the contact because the ball was out of bounds. Free kick. Thank god my kids aren’t being umpired by eddiesmith in the little league

The game is better viewing when both eyes are open. :wink:
I wonder if the umpires and their advocate Eddiesmith practice this!

I’d be worried what you’re teaching your kids if they went to ground with that little contact as it wouldn’t have knocked over an Auskicker

I thought the Ginnivan one probably was major and obvious, and such off the ball contact is usually paid, but overall, I thought we probably got the rub of the umpiring green yesterday. The Howe 50 was there (as was the one that should have been paid to Elliott) but several of the frees paid to Jamie’s for HTB were hair-trigger, especially given the proximity to goal.

The funny thing is people like to scream about this missed free kick and that missed free kick and 99% of them like Ginny’s dive are not what you want paid.
I had a game this year where my colleagues paid way too many free kicks and guess what? They were rightly criticised for it because no one really wants that.
Next game with the same team they were high praise for our umpiring when I was with 2 better umpires who also only paid the major and obvious, because that’s really what you want to see.
I think you have purposely or inadvertently misinterpreted what I said. I would absolutely hate every minute free paid but I wrote “genuine frees” on purpose dude. In just about every game, they miss major frees for both sides. With 3 Martians running the show, this is not acceptable in my view.

He needs to start playing football, he didn’t play for any frees last night which is a step in the right direction, he needs to contribute next week or he won’t be playing finals IMO.

The Elliott free’s were 50/50 IMO, I’d be pissed if they were paid against us, which they normally are.

He does stage but frees were there
The umpires do select him for special treatment
If he cut out the playing for frees he may get some more

Still pissed that Duckwood has made a career of this and not punished

Yeah, agree. The first one was there, because the defender shaped to handball and then chose not to, but the last two seemed too hot to me. The bloke playing the ball deserves the benefit of the doubt.

Watch it again with your eyes open. HTB/incorrect disposal any day of the week. Billy deserved both free kicks.,

By the way, it’s a violation of forum rules to reply to yourself, Marvelos Meredith
