I'd just like to point outhat umpire number 12 is the one that cost the Saints the game against the Hawks last year. Cats don't stand a chance.

On that note, why are ex players allowed to commentate the team they played for?

I think Gibson's gonna have a bit of a break based on the impact.

Does it really matter? It's not like it impacts the outcome of the game.

Complaining about poor umpiring and posting unironically about a systemic bias in favour of one team are very different things, friend

Perhaps not directly, but its part of the problem of updating the view of the game, and that's a flow-on effect to fans, at least from the point of view of stats nerds.

Sorry, I wasn't being completely serious when I made my initial remark. Did that umpire screw the Saints out of a win? Yes. Do I think there is some systemic corruption amount the AFL umpires? No. They are far too incompetent to organise that.

Sicily in, Vickery out. I'm not sure if that's an upside but we won't be able to blame Ty.

They've been missing for a few rounds but when Lewis and Mitchel come back in you might have more of a chance.
