Whilst I agree the umpiring can be frustrating, I don’t think it’s all that bad. As long as I can remember, umpiring has been the most contentious aspect of footy. I think generally, the umpires do a pretty good job. Most of the time and once we have seen the slow motion replay, we see the umpire made the right call. Lets be honest, most of our reactions to umpiring decisions, revolves around our fierce support of and loyalty to our respective team. How often have you stood next to someone supporting the opposition who had the complete opposite view on a decision ?
