It's the variable way three umpires implement the same rules on the day because they are working on subjective interpretations rather than literal implementations!
The worst case last weekend was probably the non-decision relating to Kelly, picks up the pill inside his own F50, runs a few steps and is tackled dropping it cold, play on goal Wet Toast. The umpire is in shot, in fact the camera films the whole event almost over the umpires shoulder with the umpire looking towards the play.
Contrast that with SPS, and fans should be burning AFL House down!
Worse still, the way one umpire delivers a pedantic momentum changing decision in the 1st quarter of the game, then does something completely different or nothing in the last 5 minutes of the game that did or could have changed the outcome!
"Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck ....... Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck"
