Taking away the umpiring, we have been absolutely pathetic!

4 frees at half time - we should be thankful its not a Grand Final

We're also getting beaten up. Hawks are far more physical so far. Need to win these contested possessions.

Only player winning ball is JPK. The rest of the team are losing their one on ones, some not really even competing.

My summation so far.....one team has come to play, the bye can't come quick enough and the umpires are being.....well, AFL umpires.

It's a recipe for disaster.

Needed that from Amartey.

Every week the free kick count is ludicrous Hawthorn are basically telling the umpires when to pay free kicks , We are playing badly, but seriously it would be a better game if the umps just stayed out of it. Right now I'm just bored. I thought they wanted to grow the game in Sydney ?

The umpiring isn't great, but it's not the reason we're losing.
Too many players having no impact on the game.

Yep. And Hawks are playing very well, Clarkson psyched them up for this match.

I tend not to comment during matches...but we are very, very poor tonight. I can't see a single player on top of his opponent.
Umpiring is not the reason we are getting belted.

Rocket time Horse need to address some major issues in the midfield and of course 14-4 free kick count is not helping.
