Re: RD 21 Carlton vs Geelong (aftermatch aftermath)

Let me get my thoughts together...
When the frig is this frigging club going to go to the afl and abuse the umpiring system. How many frigging games do we lose because of those green maggots?
Any 50/50 decision when the heat is on always goes against us. As a club we always cop it on the chin, well frig em, enough is enough.
I mean that fair bump Rowe did on Softwood, WTF?
Time for MM to come out with guns blazing or even this could be the first job of Triggy.
Carlton played well, Geelong played for frees and the umps just umpired friggin crape again.
Thats the problem, I reckon MM goes to em all guns blazing more often than we know. And they react each following week by getting the dirty pineapple and gently inserting it where the sun doesn't shine. I reckon our Club needs to STFU and get on with it. Its like players pointing to the screen asking the umpire to have another look. They never do and never change a decision so why waste the oxygen? Focus on the next passage of play and your immediate opponent.
I'm sorry but that is bull, we have for soooo long now just towed the line and been the alfs little yes club. We have created no waves and have taken whatever comes our way, we'll no more!
We are sitting 13th and will always be there abouts because are now a spineless club that is meek.
How many games or finals have been spoken about on here complaint about the what if umpiring decisions.
As a club we need to ask why does it CONTINUALLY happen?
Well I reckon we have been copping it from the umpires since the Elliot days. I reckon the AFL via the umps have had an agenda against since then, it only relaxed a little under Pagan as he was always saying (sic) "no use worrying about what you cant control". I reckon he never wrote a letter re the umpiring once. I reckon MM is into them all the time and thats why we get shafted. Its just my opinion and Im sticking to it. Im of the opinion that we should STFU and win the games off your own boot, don't worry about umps. In fact, if you think its a genuine problem, bloody plan for it. Plan to play against 25 not 22! Its all above the ears.
