Collingwood vs St Kilda

[DapperDon]

And the comeback wasn't that hard to come up with.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Hand was clearly over the shoulder. HTB was crap all night for both teams.

Ok and what about O'Brian punching Milne in the face and then getting slung while Riewoldt just marked the ball 35 metres from goal?????

 

[LiterallyNobody]

disgrace, saints were clearly robbed not just the o'brien mark but the whole match, based on that performance pies clearly not up to winning the premiership

Good show of humility there old chap

Hello Jack Zeibell

"...you may remember me from a few weeks back. Contact to the head is a serious offence and could cost you up to 3 weeks."

 

[Dusky]

Feel absolutely horrible for the saints and their supporters for having a well deserved victory pulled from their hands solely due to umpires trying to take the game into their own hands.

Disgusting is the only word to describe what we all saw happen tonight

 

[HFF]

It's nice you mention the 2 incidents which went against the Pies and even then the Shaw deliberate was clearly deliberate and a good call. How about the free to Dawes for the first goal in the last which was soft as shit and then Kosi getting nothing when the same thing was done to him? What about the the holding the ball against Gram? And then Brown does the exact same thing 1 minute later for no penalty......

watch it again, clearly over the shoulder on Dawes, nothing soft about it.

Gram was as cooked as we were in the third quarter with similar incidents happening to Pendles and Wellingham.

Shaw deliberate? Pffft. Running at full tilt in a contested situation with ball on the deck towards and facing the boundary is not deliberate. He kicked it off the deck FFS, he had no control over it whatsoever. That is not deliberate.

Long time stalker, first time poster. The end of that game has forced me to actually post. The game was umpired terribly all match, last quarter went the pies way. I don't believe its a part of a AFL conspiracy, but that last free kick was an absolute disgrace. Pies fans in this thread need to realise this and take off the collingwood glasses. You cannot possibly follow AFL and want that to be a free. Anyway, back to stalking for me!

 

[Umpa Lumpa]

I know, I was being sarcastic...

 

[JeffDunne]

The most disturbing thing all night were the images of the Collingwood cheer squad & Dale Thomas' pink jocks.

What ever happened to Tess?

hahah I read the "you may remember me from" in the voice of Troy McClure

Yeah, I'd like to see Collingwood supporters' posts if we were in the Saints' position.
I'd be fukn livid if we got that call against us in the same circumstances.
Umpiring's a disgrace as it is every week.

there is so much rage in me right now i could easily beat the shit out 8 dwarves, at once.

I think the fact everyone thinks that 1 decision cost the saints the game is idiotic, there were plenty shit decisions BOTH ways throughout the game. Raving on about 1 shit decision that goes against your team, does not make it more important than the other shit decisions that went against the oppositions.

 

[Falchoon]

How devastating for the mighty Saints to be robbed of a certain draw tonight and thus a short-lived finals appearance.

IQ needs some work

 

[Stifler's mom]

How many f***ing games have Collingwood been gifted this year by horrific umpiring!!?? Geelong should've got them, West Coast had them done, now the Saints - this is an absolute joke!

There must be some level of corruption, it's far too coincidental.

The cats game decision was a CLEAR 50 against Hunt. Went over the mark and restrained Fasolo.
Either way he had the ball 70 from goal with scores level and 90 seconds left.
The WC game we were not advantaged by the umpiring. If we go to Perth and lose the frees by 1 i'll be rapt!

This game we should have won clearly but for poor conversion. (bad footy)
The umpiring however was clearly our way though.

I think it's idiotic you think that's what people are saying.

 

[Smoky]

Fuc*king umps cost me $100 I had on St kilda cause they are refunding all bets if the team scores 90 points but loses. Everyone should email sportsbet so we can get the refund we deserve haha.

And I backed the draw at 75 to 1...

(It's better winning this way!)

 

[stfan]

25;14 free kick count.

Clear examples of frees being paid to Pies and identicle ones not to the Saints.

BJ in the first quarter gets head high contact close to goals in a sloppy tackle from the Pies. No free kick and typical of the night.

 

[Glassjaw]

Not sure what's worse: The Pies supporters trying to justify the umpiring, or the Hawks supporters trying to blame the umpiring last night.

 

[Lockyer24]

Saints unlucky to give away that last free, but lucky to be in the game anyway

We can't win the flag with our current use of ball forward of centre which is tough when you're 2nd on the ladder

 

[fusion]

Watched the replay - clearly no free kick to O'Brien but why the hell did Kosi kick the ball to him. He marks with 23 seconds left and Milne all by himself. He should have kicked it 40 metres in front of goal and forced O'Brien to come towards Milne. I know if was a pressure situation but the kick has to be better.

 

[Ghostwriter]

Where was Riewoldt for the last half?, serious questions need to be asked of this super athlete.

[Simple Jack]

On the plus side, at least come Monday we will have moved to the top of Roby's 'most favoured by umpires' list.
