Post subject:  FEVOLA CRUCIFIED BY UMPIRES: It's unAustralian!

In 1901 our Federation was created.

It was made clear in our Constitution in 1901 that no classes will exist in our society: ie no house of lords here!!

We are an egalitarian society (except for the self proclaimed dictators of our sports life; the AFL and therir umpires).

So where do the AFL and their AFL umpires stand in all of this?

Are they poms, living in the wrong country, living differnt standard of life?
Are they still Bitter against Carlton?
Are they bitter aginst Fev?
Are they impartial?
Are they calling it is as they see it?
Did the AFL got their "pound of flesh" in 2002? or are they so cannibalistic, and insatiable with their appetite to feast on us that they want more?

Umpires in our country are a rule unto their own. They can't be questined by ANYONE except us!!!!!!!

I'm sick of thre treatment we have been subjected tio in the last 5 years, and I do not wish for it to continue. So I satand up and protest in the strogest manner; publicly.

They (the AFL or the umpire fraternity) don't care at all about the prejudicial behaviour dished out towards Carlton and Carlton players unless they are held accountable (which they feel they are immune to)

SPEAK UP CARLTON Supporters. and let your frustrations with the AFL and their umpires' injustices towards our club speak for itself.

I've had a gutful.

I am no winger, and I can just stomach the last 5 year sentence handed by the AFL (to Carlton, but not Essendon* or Melbourne for similar breaches) , but right now I wish to speak out!!....because nobody else will from a club or commission perspective ... other than the pity I hear from mates of mine who are opposition supporters.

I'm sick of it. I've had a gutfull.

I'm appalled by the injustices served towards Fev (and Carlton) by the Umpires (week in week out)...just listern to the opinions of the TV commentators (who don't influence me one bit) and see how they support my opinion (should matter to you too).

I'm outraged. I'm furious.

Someone has to speak to Gieshen!!

Why is Fevola being vicitmused?

It's obvios to me, because it's obvious to opposition supporters that the umpires have got it in for Fev!! I have witnesses!! Umpires are Un Australian.

Pagan or CFC is going toisay NOTHING so I am!!

THE UMPIRES ARE CRUCIFYING A CHAMPION OF OUR GREAT GAME: FEVOLA.

What do you think?

WE HAVE TO SAY SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stick up for our boys!!
Stick up for FEV!!

If we don't no one will.

It's Time. Now is the time. Someone in the club has to escalate the issue!!

I'm sick of the treatment Fev is receiving from the umpiures (if that's what they call themselves)..ther's other more popular appropriate terms of them (ask your local club members)

This treatment of Fev, or the Carlton Footy Club imo is intollerable.

Say something. Refute the behaviour of umpires. Have your say. Make it clear!!!

HELP!! HELP!! HELP!!

I'm sick of being a victim from these biased, stupid people in uniform!!

What sort of a country are we living in?

No wonder people want to take "ice" to escape the hypocrisy of the AFL AND UMPRRES OF THE SAME LEAGUE.

Unscrupulus behaviour!! :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted: .

I reckon this is a load of cobblers.

Sure Fev gets the odd dud decision. But so does every player, from every team. It's a bloody cop out to say that it's only Fevola.

And it's bad enough that poor decisions and inconsistent interpretations are prevalent in every game, but do you know what is worse? Something that affects our team more than any umpiring decision? It's Fevola's persistent whinging and remonstration towards the umpires. Fev, mate, if you're reading this we all feel your pain, but if you get s stiff call from the umpies, just STFU and get on with the bloody game! You're not the first bloke to get shafted, you won't be the last either. Shit happens.

But the more you remonstrate and bag the umpires the more you will continue to have the 50/50 calls go against you. When you showed the ball to the umps last week that has to go down as one of the most petulant and mindless things done on a football field. Moreover, what did you do with the kick? You missed a shot on goal, albeit a tough angle and all of that. But concentrate on the footy and move forward, don't reflect on the past, sooking to the umpires. They're not going to listen to you.

Fev, there's not a Carlton supporter around that doesn't love it when you turn it on. When you're primed you transcend being a Carlton gun, you're performer who makes the game great for all fans of the game to watch. The Fev I love wins games of footy through freakish contested marks and long booming shots on goal. He is a superstar.

Please, let me remember the good Fev. The bad Fev is an embarassment to the Carlton jumper.

I really reckon the club needs to look at this in a big way. Get Adam Gilchrist down to mentor Fev about accepting umpires decisions. Anything! Just get him to play the friggin ball and keep working his butt off for our team. Fev, you're an out and out gun. Don't forget that!

Bondi amazing u can see it clearly all the way from Bondi. Not condoning Fev's dummy spat......but fair crack of the whip. He is being crucified. Obvious ones are being totally ignored. It commenced against WCE and continued on against the Lions and Saints. Has Geish given this direction?

Sick of Pagan not addressing this issue as well. Sweep it under the carpet Pagan.

Fev is turning into Lloyd looking for the free kick.

Fev needs to focus on the footy and play to the whistle. If he plays hard enough he'll get more free kicks just like every other player attacking the footy.

I was sitting in the midst of the St Kilda members tonight - and they felt that they copped the raw deal with the umps tonight.

My opinion on Fev's dummy spit for that mark in the last - bad decision but the one before went his way when he pushed the 2 st kilda defenders forward.

Both player and umpires need to call a truce or else the game is going to lose one of the freakiest players playing in the league for a long time.

Its clear it is unfair what they are doing but Fev isnt making it any easier.

Rules are rules though and the umpires cant change them just because they dont like the guy.

As i said on another thread Milne and Montagna are still getting better than a fair deal. Something is wrong with that.

No doubt cousins and kerr will always get frees even though there performances have been enhanced.

What has fev done apart from spreading the love and trying too hard on the field.

The football world has it all wrong.

Umpiring was absolutely abysmal both ways tonight. We got soft free kicks. They got soft free kicks. They missed obvious kicks for us. They missed obvious kicks for them.

Fevola carrying on like that does not help his cause. I've umpired quite a lot of football. I can tell you right now - it's not a deliberate thing, but in a fifty fifty situation the umpire will always favour the bloke not giving him shit for the previous 3 quarters. Suck it up and move on Fev.

he should focus on getting on with the game - let the umpires umpire - the decision will not change, nor will it help for later 50/50 contests.

It's frustrating as a supporter to not get the free, but doesn't set a good example to our younger players in Gibbs, Murphy, Anderson, Blackwell, etc. if he keeps remonstrating. :roll:

Fev isn't going to get many of the 50-50 decisions while he spends so much time and energy complaing and appealing for free kicks. Its not right, but its human nature.

He's been doing it since Round 1 of the NAB Cup.

Get on with the game Fev and the free kicks will start coming your way.

I want him to stop his dummy spats byt it's much easier said than done.

Put yourself in his position. Passes that 80% of the time are not good enough, double/triple manning up on him, lack of support, umpiring decisions that mostly go against him .....the man is carrying an inordinate load.

When we predictbaly bomb it up to him 50 times a game on 6 defenders, there will be some contentious umpiring decisions.

Right on the money Rod. Each week compare the goals by the opposition forward to Fevs. Fev has to work his arse off and vary rarely doe he get it lace out in front of him. eg Lloyd, Hawkins, Brown and now Gehrig

Fev would kick 100+ plus in any other side.
