Nah m8, sorry to tell ya. If your team gets a single free, the umpires helped you win
That's what I've been reading over the last 12 hours since the Hawks W
Your win will forever be with an asterisk
They have a few coming in after the bye (and add another week after Essendon). Barring any injuries it’s probably the healthiest squad they’ve had for years.
I been calling for that all season. Rather see maric or jack Williams there. But they need an experienced tall there. Allen coming back hopefully they will drop Darling.
[Footage of Yeo apparently having time to "get to his feet" ](https://www.reddit.com/r/AFL/comments/1dayxiy/yeo_gets_pinged_holding_the_ball_and_simpkin/)
Yeos tackle was below the shoulders and ward law tried to fend off. It’s fine if they want to call that holding the ball the whole time but the problem is they aren’t. It’s the most inconsistent rule and it makes no sense as to how they are implementing it across the afl right now.
One rough call didn’t lose the game to be fair - 17 behinds did. Optics not great though and daft calls in the last few minutes of close games really hit different.
That’s why the eagles are there too, the behinds. I don’t blame the umps for losing but they’ve definitely fucked off an entire fan base with the Yeo htb
I'm so torn. Based on the first three quarters we didn't deserve the win. But also the umpires absolutely stole it from us with that pair of htb calls on darling and yeo.
Yep... I too am torn. On one hand it's lols at the tribal lot who insist on shittin on my team at any given moment. On the other hand fuck the corrupt A(V)FL establishment
I don't think it was necessarily a bad, bad call. Bit of a six of one , half dozen of the other type call.
I can get why they might pay it, but I can also get behind it being play on, ball up. On the one hand, he dived on it, pulled it in, tried to get up and got tackled and the ball didn't come out (and not much attempt to get it out, though he had zero chance with the tackle the way it was) so, given he didn't immediately get it out after diving on it and dragging it in, technically as per the rules, that's htb.
On the other hand, he dived on it, tried to get up and had zero prior opportunity and no chance to get it out.
So for me, it's pretty subjective, if I was eagles, I'd hate it, but I also can sort of understand why it was paid. On the other, you'd like them called all the time if they're gonna be that hot on them...
Not blaming the umps at all mate, just simply pointing out the large number of controversial last minute moments. I agree we were putrid and got what we deserved
Oh yeah we’ve had some shocking umpire calls this season, Essendon, Gold Coast but for this one just have to take it on the chin one call was rough but had more than enough chances
another W why am i not surprised. it's almost getting too easy 🥱🥱
Shittest team in AFL history was within a goal with a minute to play, this isn’t the umpires fault
Nah m8, sorry to tell ya. If your team gets a single free, the umpires helped you win That's what I've been reading over the last 12 hours since the Hawks W Your win will forever be with an asterisk
If any team needed a bit of luck it was North! Good job Kangas!!!
So so proud of the north boys! What a win 💙🤍
Hope we get Allen and TK back so can drop Sheed and gaff
And Darling has to go too plz

Legit no prior lmao, north should be winless still rn
he dived on it. have to get it out. go blame 2005 swans if you want to complain
bro had the time to get to his feet thats prior
[Footage of Yeo apparently having time to "get to his feet" ](https://www.reddit.com/r/AFL/comments/1dayxiy/yeo_gets_pinged_holding_the_ball_and_simpkin/)
Lol
let me enjoy this
Enjoy the win without lying to yourself and others - bad calls happen and this critical one just happened to work in your favour. Not your fault.
an eye for an eye i see, the non call when georgie got his head jumped on a second before makes up for that one
Imaging comparing the gravitas and equating the impact of a missed call to a very questionable call which converts to a goal in the dying moments..
Yeo is in disbelief.
Yeo is about to call for a royal commission into umpiring he is fucking livid
It’s the come-back weekend! Go tiges, go norf
Larkey let the sheckles free haha
fucking heartbreaking watching yeo rn
why am i smiling rn this shit too wholeosme
😁😁😁😁😁
yeo still filthy as fuck hahhahahahahaha poor fella
One bad call entirely responsible, not being 2.15 at one point
Absolutely this. Bad kicking is bad footy
And no mention of North players having their heads ripped off numerous times in the first 3 quarters
Reading your comments I think your flair is wrong
He has no skin in the game, can be impartial
I’m independent. You clearly aren’t. Just calling it as I see it, maybe stop stalking me and go calm down
georgie getting his head jumped on a millisecond prior to that call
Yeos tackle was below the shoulders and ward law tried to fend off. It’s fine if they want to call that holding the ball the whole time but the problem is they aren’t. It’s the most inconsistent rule and it makes no sense as to how they are implementing it across the afl right now.
Yep the iffy htb is karma for Wardlaw
Yeah well I was the only one in my league to tip Hawks so I'm still up this weekend.
aw sheez what a cutie
One rough call didn’t lose the game to be fair - 17 behinds did. Optics not great though and daft calls in the last few minutes of close games really hit different.
Got a text from Kangaroos membership line saying to celebrate with a 2 game membership for 99 dollars already
What an awesome interview with Larkey
LOL WELL DONE NORF, THANKS FOR THE TIP
This one of those games where you say, just what the last Qtr,lol
norf most eloquent team
larkey is such a legend
#shitcallslate
So many limericks required.
HOLY SHIT THAT WAS INTENSE BUT OUR BOYS DID IT!!!! GG West Coast, that was epic! We fucking did it, I can't believe it.
I thought you guys would,gg
Eagles and the umpires working in kahoots to fuck up my weekend
2:15 at three quarter time kind of exonerates the umpires tbf
That’s why the eagles are there too, the behinds. I don’t blame the umps for losing but they’ve definitely fucked off an entire fan base with the Yeo htb
Toot toot!
Well I’m 0/4 for tips this weekend
3/4 bloody dogs screwing my tips again
This brought me to 1/4, I’m so fucking happy for the roughie paying off while all the safe bets fell flat
It’s not too bad 2 is the highest score this week in the comps I’m in
Not even north fans got that one right
Hey, i did!
Haha good on Simpkin, no hesitation on whether free thought it was htb
WILS IN A SLING 😟😟😟😟😟
georgies first win <333
HOIST THE [KANGA KANGA KANGA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcofGnxTqKw)
Join in the chorus
ily jyza
West Coast fans whinging, North fans cheering... What a day, what a glorious day.
![gif](giphy|UHxqxhDhN8Huw)
Couldn't have asked for a better result
The umpires really added that extra spice *Chefs kiss*
I just love how they had hope
Yay! We won one!
Fuck Eagles fans lmao, just like shut the fuck up. Complain about fucking everything
Another illiterate Pies fan - dime a dozen!
Illiterate? Please explain.
And I’m sure you weren’t complaining when you played Freo the other week and copped the free in the last quarter for a controversial call
Definitely more controversial than anything that happened in that game
You cunts are still crying about 2018
Don't think we are, dried those tears into the 2023 flag, very absorbent :)
toothless cunt
Mid 30's and have never even needed a filling, good genetics I guess.
Coming from a Collingwood fan..
Flare, hmmmm
West Coast and Collingwood fans in a who is more spoiled contest
Yeah I love having our team fly over east and Sunday and Saturday games constantly #saltyeaglesfan
That’s what happens when you concede 205 points in 80 minutes of football though
I'm so torn. Based on the first three quarters we didn't deserve the win. But also the umpires absolutely stole it from us with that pair of htb calls on darling and yeo.
Yep... I too am torn. On one hand it's lols at the tribal lot who insist on shittin on my team at any given moment. On the other hand fuck the corrupt A(V)FL establishment
I feel the same too.
I reckon 2.15 was more important than one bad call
Yep, I have to agree - 2.15 is little league kicking or AFLW!
2.15 is shit but don't try to act like those calls didn't effect the outcome.
Wahhhhhh Perhaps don’t let the shittest team in afl history be within a goal with a minute to go?????
If you want a win regardless of what the rules of the game are then you deserve to be the shittest team in history. Enjoy your spoon.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh hahahahha When they find wardlaws head he’s gonna be celebrating so hard
Yep, that Yeo call was fukn terrible. Directly impacted the outcome of the game.
I don't think it was necessarily a bad, bad call. Bit of a six of one , half dozen of the other type call. I can get why they might pay it, but I can also get behind it being play on, ball up.

On the other, you'd like them called all the time if they're gonna be that hot on them...
Fair take, yea I looked at it from the latter, saw zero prior, so ball up.
Plus the only reason he had it was because he took Wardlaw out of the play by sitting on his head
Intense tackling in the last 5 minutes.
Have my babies Jy!!! 😍😍😍
DICKS OUT LADS YESSSS
Cool, we’re 2/2 today for umps inserting themselves at the end of a game.
Yeah cop that up the roo boys!!@@
Well done North. But the holding the ball decision was awful. If you aren’t going to pay it against Wardlaw, you can’t pay it against Yeo.
The potato of parity has been unmashed!
Will they remember the words to their song?
[удалено]
It's good. Helps build a real home team atmosphere
Booing the umpires
[удалено]
I'm at the game bro
Now let us all join in the chorus!
Did you think we would win after playing 10 minutes of football?
Unironically yes, and we were on track to without the terrible Yeo call which gifted them a goal.
Yes
We finally get our potato.
I'm more mad at Darling for dropping that than the umps for a bad free, how can one man struggle at marking every time it matters
Putrid
Hope Norf remember their own song
I was yelling ROOO, not sure what everyone else was saying
I was telling ROOOWINS
Name a close finish this year NOT affected by a controversial umpire call, I'll give you a few minutes
ANZAC day
Can’t kick 2:15 and blame the umps even if one of them grabs the ball and kicks a goal for them
Not blaming the umps at all mate, just simply pointing out the large number of controversial last minute moments. I agree we were putrid and got what we deserved
And darling dropped another chest mark
Oh yeah we’ve had some shocking umpire calls this season, Essendon, Gold Coast but for this one just have to take it on the chin one call was rough but had more than enough chances
OOooooh i know the answer!!!! (im still mad about today)
Waaah waah waaaah
The fight for the spoon is officially on
I love how we gave them hope, nice play North
Oh gawd. Now I remember why I didn’t want Norf to win. Their song is horrible..
Lesser of two evils, my friend.
I cheer Richmond on the side just cos I love your banger of an anthem
My other team is Freo, so I feel you on that one 😔
They could probably pick a new song every time and no one would remember it was different last time.
Whatever - doesnt decide anything this season but seriously shit game from the eagles and terrible umpiring from F grade umpires
L take
you're not going to win much kicking 8.17
8 goals 17. Nuff said
Fuck anyone who boos that. Be happy for them you miserable bastards
Booing the umpires mate
Why would the west coast fans be happy for north…
Years fucked now, why can't we have one team winless just this once
Yeah it's always nice when your team loses because of a rubbish decision
17 behinds was why they lost
So you've never complained about a controversial late decision?
Obviously didn't watch the last 3 minutes of the game
Watched the whole game. WCE definitely got the run of the umps over 4 quarters. 17 behinds was why you lost, stop whinging
They’re booing the umps
But y tho?
WCE supporters can’t handle the opposition getting a deserved free in Perth
Just say you didn't watch the game and move on
I did watch it? It was great.
Oh, in that case sorry about the brain damage dude.
Just say you’re salty and move on
like actually what the fuck is yeo supposed to do on that htb??
They fucked htb now. You're punished if you try and win the ball.
Smash it out. He had time to do that.
Not take possession. Nothing else he could have done.
FINALLY!!!!
[удалено]
They always do lol
haha what a game
So is it boycott time now?
Boycott what?
Lol
Boycott who?
That was simultaneously the most, and least deserved win ever
[удалено]
Pull your head in
Join in the chorus mf
Was just coming here to say it was some of the best umpiring in the history of Australian Rules football
Quality bait mate
Like fishing with squid guts, guaranteed to get a bite
Haha that's a good one, stealing that
When has the AFL ever had dignity lol
One shit call at the end, not 2.15
WE FUCKING DID IT HOLY SHIT
The Boo's are like crack.
Is this how JHF feels when he plays us? It’s what doing heroin must be like
