TOPIC:

A rough count on the WAFL website throws up some interesting stats when comparing free kicks for to free kicks against for each team so far this year. It appears the two aligned sides are getting the rough end of the pineapple (good, I'm glad)while Souths are on a dream run (bad, I'm not so glad...it should be Subi).

FART -69
WART -65
Subi -48
SD +3
EF +23
WP +24
Perth +28
CL +49
SF +63

These might be a couple out coz I did them without a calculator but are pretty close.

So we're the only team that can legitimately complain about the umpiring?

on face value barney I reckon you can.

If you soley base Umpring standard on Free Kicks For, up against Free Kicks against then you have no idea on Umpiring

It would be interesting if it could be broken down into which half of the ground the free kicks were paid.

Agreed. The stats show who gives away more free's than they get. It's not heads n tails!

Exactly!! like our game v Claremont at the Showgrounds that we lost by a kick, Claremont had something like 9 or 10 frees inside 50 to our 1 and they got about 7 goals as a result of those from what I can recall..we got shafted big time like we have for the majority of the last 3 years
