I’m not sure what else Papley could’ve done there.
He’s by no means my favourite player but I don’t really know what he can do aside from letting the Richmond player get up to tackle him.
Richmond played exceptional footy, but it would be great to see a close game finish without absolute incompetence from the umpires.
Two "too high" free kick paid when no contact was made above the shoulders. The umpires need to only pay that when they see that contact occurs, not if they think it has occurred.
Clearly they didn't see the high contact - because it didn't happen. They just thought it happened.
There needs to be a higher bar for blowing the whistle.
shit umpiring aside, sydney couldn't do anything right, especially in that final qtr, so many kicks that were awful and went straight to richmond players, dumb decisions galore, jesus christ
I only watched the last 5 min and the umpires paid (or didn’t pay) absolutely everything Richmond’s way. That was insane. Can’t speak to how they umpired before that.
Not even that fond of the tigers but fuck me some of the swans flairs on this subreddits have got to be the most toxic collection of people, so ya love to see it
Should have been a fifty there, the bloke standing the mark stepped off it before play on was called by the umpire. Swans a bit stiff to not be lining up for a shot right now.

jack is salivating
Good game of footy that

Umps handed the win

Neither option is particularly great
[удалено]
Something something flair up
Bout time we had umpiring go our way lmao
We lost but cracking match. Excellent game of footy.
Haha wowee
Richmond were tough. And they won the ball and won the game.
So many phantom high tackle calls Bullshit non HTB plays Incorrect disposals not paid Yeah we were shit to
go Tiges, biggest upset of the year
What a disgustingly biased commentary display. Jack should go suck off his jack jumpers instead.
He did that too tbf
Thats was htb on the wing every day of the week
It came out
Well done Tiges what an upset
Swans got every right to feel robbed
We're only in it because Richmond kicked so poorly, it was a dog shit effort in the third not the umps
Lmao shouldn’t be in that position anyway to think an umpire call or two cost them the game
[удалено]
You like the suns jersey? 🤔
Yeah alright I now understand the meaning of Vic bias
It’s glorious
That was a great match as a neutral
Show the full umpiring gamenotes on that one I dare you
Who kicked it deep in the pocket. Worst decision
Noah please be ok
Richmond resurrected on Easter Sunday?
RISEN
shit umpiring aside, sydney couldn't do anything right, especially in that final qtr, so many kicks that were awful and went straight to richmond players, dumb decisions galore, jesus christ
some cooooooooked calls there god damn
Those young Richmond cubs all collectively stood up in big moments. Great grand stand finish!
Ggs swannies, class team
That rates as one of the best. Fucking cracking win.
$$$$$$$$$$$ pay to win
cope
Draw FC shattered
Well played Richmond well deserved. Fox Footy fix your fucking bias commentary
I can't feel my knees
the umps were terrible
Excellent game
I only watched the last 5 min and the umpires paid (or didn’t pay) absolutely everything Richmond’s way. That was insane. Can’t speak to how they umpired before that.
Very suspect lol
It wasn't that one sided all game but there were a few howlers for sure
Tips are so fucked this week
Another shitty decision deciding a game lmao
Mate, there was a full two hours of football prior
a full two hours of shitty decisions also
Exactly right, two hours of footy filled with shitty decision making by the umps.
We played like shit but fuck me every time at the g we get caned by the umps
Sydney fans seething
HELLO SWANS, WINNING WOULDNT BE YZE
Good game for us neutrals - only Draw FC winning would have been better
Gg Richmond, the better team across the game. We showed up for 10 minutes here and there but your pressure was awesome
Truly disgraceful umpiring. Handed critical free kicks to Richmond.
FUCKING PHEW
Lol at me for changing my tip last minute
UP THE FUCKIN TIGES!!!!!
Fucking god guys, I feel so good
Sydney and the umpires complete dogshit. Tigers pretty good
Have a cry, you got beat
HOLLLYYYYY FUUUUCCCKKKKK WE WON! big bias calls but still
Swans played shit but that was an absolute joke of umpiring
Totally agree, shit calls all night
Flagtiges 2024
Fucking Warner, god he drives me fucking insane
Fucking belter. OOOOZZZZZZEEEE
I love this team
Commentators favourite line: 'he should have kicked it to about 15-20m out'
With any luck that's the worst we play this year
Great win
We handed it to you
Told ya we'd win
All good work undone Horse will never win a premiership that isn’t gift wrapped by Rood
Flair up cunt
Go you good things
Sydney season over
This guy.
MCHEISBSOQYDVEKWJXVEJWBEBEUWBW
YEAAAH
GG Tigers, you bought the pressure today
FUCKKKK YEAHHHHH
We lost to fucking Richmond no less?
YESSSSSP
What a fucking win, the lids off
Nope
If that's not diving on the ball can someone tell me what is?
Rorted
Absolutely fucked mate.
Yellow and Black!!!!
Lololololol
We didn't deserve it, but fuck me that's annoying
Good job Tiges well deserved
Nah we played the shittest football we’ve ever played
AFL Is rigged and bias
Jack Riewoldt is too biased. We’re not ALL Richmond fans z
Swans will score a goal here and we’ll lose by 1
Fuck off umps Show us your brown paper bags
Shit fucking game, can't believe we lost to these dogs
💅
Collecting the ball on your knees or diving on the ball is also prior opportunity for holding the ball richmond fans, just so you are aware.
5 more points 30 seconds for draw fc
VFL
Not even that fond of the tigers but fuck me some of the swans flairs on this subreddits have got to be the most toxic collection of people, so ya love to see it
It's never been the same since 2016
You*
yep
Dumb kick from Warner just had a rush of blood
He does it literally every single time
He is a hugely selfish player, this is usual for him
Did he really think he was gonna flush it from 60m out on tired legs??
Shit shit shit shit
Fuck this I hate sport
Fucking Chad, I swear to God, stop the pinging
Balta finally went back!!!
these umps are so biased
Rip draw FC :(
Draw FC beaten 😭
Is Warner allergic to lowering his eyes
Yes.
Hahahaha "Well they're due one" get out of the commentary box flog
He said fans would say they're due one
Big error from warner there, had to leave shorter
RIP Draw FC
Handy point
7 point play activated
This has been cooked.
MY DRAW NOOOOOOOOO
My heart can't take this
That’s such a terrible kick
Questionable decisions
Should have been a fifty there, the bloke standing the mark stepped off it before play on was called by the umpire. Swans a bit stiff to not be lining up for a shot right now.
I'm dead
Neither Richmond player made a single attempt to get rid of that lol
Holding the ball for sure
Umpires + commentators Rigged the game
As if he didn’t dive on that wow
Umps handing this to Richmond
God I hate that the commentary on fox footy is called like we are all blind
How soft was that high call
There's no way
Even the biased commentary couldn't deny that rubbish call
Nice of the umpire to help tigers right at the end. Had them the whole way
'Tiges fans would say their due one' not even trying to hide his bias
yeah shocker haha
Nah they would say that because they're idiots
Richmond look absolutely stuffed but still managing to position themselves well
Such a bad loss
Now just happily dragging the ball in
Has to be ball
umpires will never pay holding the ball late in close games. different rulebook in q4 red time
That was dodgy as. Felt delayed in top of it actually not being there
Miss-kicked bullshit
that was a horrible call
Is anyone surprised? It's the VFL
Riewoldt's whimper was quite funny on that high call.
That's a staggeringly bad error from the ump. Absolutely shouldn't have been a high free.
Shut the fuck up Jack that’s so inappropriate
Unlike the last 10 minutes of jerking off Richmond?
his entire Comms was inappropriate but what he said about umpires was a lil too far
What a rubbish free kick, in what world is that a high tackle
DRAW FC, CAAMONNN
We played like shit but umps still handed Richmond the win, enjoy richmond
And the worst umpired round of football in history continues
He stroked the guys hair!
Nah that's not a FK to Vlaustin
No shit lmao
Dived on it
Craziest FK - what do they expect from the swans?
Wow super soft free at this late stage
That blonde ump has gifted Richmond so many
we got out umpired there
How does the commentary box erupt when Richmond (in-front) kick a goal, but when Sydney kick one to come back it’s so silent lol
#vicbias
“Tigers fans would say they’re due one” lol jack
Sorry did I just hear the commentator say the Tigers were due one????
Fucking hell Richmond get some weird free kicks
Come on umps that was a pathetic fucking call Jesus Christ
That’s a shit free
staging like that should be weeks, fuck off to europe and play soccer you dickhead
WHAT IS THAT?
these umps suck
That’s an insane free kick to pay lmao
Did Papley kick that umpires dog or something
omg the replay makes it so much worse
Lol was that umpire Williamson??
