I think bringing in women umps is not a bad thing, but Eleni doesn't appear to have what it takes. Not AFL standard.
Agree 100%. Its so typical AFL.
Who cares if the umpire is man or women, young or old black or white but for god sake they need to be at the top standard to get a gig and a blind man can see she is not.
Same goes for special comments and the TV commentators - seriously that Kellie Underwood is downright awful yet the AFL wouldn't dare replace her would they.
Commentators are supposed to enhance the spectacle - she does the opposite.
