AFL Umps Interacting With Players Is Pretty Interesting..

"The umpire didn't really sound like he knew" He 100% knew, he was basically saying "If he didn't mark it, you pushed him in the back anyway, so it's his ball"

For when the GWS player was tapping the Brisbane player on the arm, there is a rule where you can not continually target an injured area if an opposition player. If I remember right, Nick Riewoldt had a shoulder or something dislocated or some major injury, and the Brisbane players at the time (Chris and Brad Scott) kept on bumping him at that shoulder or jabbing at it while he was still on the ground. The rule against targeting an injury was brought in for that, and that was what the umpire was enforcing here.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that taking a speccie over the umpire is against the rules

@@themoviehobbit355 What about umpires that take marks? 😁

[@athlonen]

Depends on when that would have happened. If the rule now is don’t touch umpires, there was a time when Mark Ricciuto from Adelaide barreled into the umpire from the back.. not a fine, penalty, or suspension. Simply play on. That was in 1997.
