Less than 3 minutes before the now infamous umpiring decision results in a Freo goal - Sidebottom gets up from the bottom of a pack, Umpire Nicholls asks for the ball three times, ends up getting it himself, looks disgusted.
Wonder if this played in to the call 👀 #AFLFreoPies

@Grazo16@hell4u02 Sidebottom has no obligation to get the ball and give it back to him. All I’m suggesting with this tweet is that the fact that he didn’t clearly played in to the decision Nicholls makes 3 minutes later (which was a horrendous decision).

@JR_00002 I do think this would be something players would be instructed to do in gamesaving scenarios. You’re right - it buys an extra few crucial seconds to get set up behind the ball.
I don’t know why the umpire would feel the need to interfere though. Just ball it up quicker 🤷♂️
