Justice is the key. Like all sports.

@PaulAmy375 Great effort. I have umpired at perhaps 200 grounds including a few that are shut. Yarawalla, toboorac, bawmn extension but I think I have left my run a bit late to do the remaining 720 clubs

@rohan_connolly Now umpires don't bounce this will increase the number of good female umpires

[Phil @Philip8998]

@JonathanJWalsh Great summary. As a long time supporter, I am optimistic for the future. It is easy to be critical but true supporters stay the journey.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@rohan_connolly @essendonfc An unexpected win but supporters need to stay strong. Too easy to be critical. Test is to continue our improvement.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@CraiG_Mc Bombers supporter for 60 years. Never focus on negatives. Always focus on effort & improvement. We are on the Way.

@rhettrospective Daryl cumming original club South mildura. Sam cumming also sunraysia (Wentworth) are they related? Great nephew?

[Phil @Philip8998]

@rohan_connolly Bombers will win one & then we will hold it.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@PatrickRyen Thanks for your fantastic update. Essendon will win a final soon, if players work hard, improve & have supporters that stay strong & don't criticize. As a long time supporter, I saw years where were not in finals & when we won flags it was so good.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@ScooterMcNeice Really looking forward to Parish having a big 26

[Phil @Philip8998]

@essendonfc It is tough sometimes to support the dons but I know that every game that Zach Merrett will give 200%. I rank him one of the Essendon greats. Go well Zac.

@shawry_analyst @Quartermain10 @AFL The AFL needs to rewrite the rule so it is understood & consistent rather than making the umpire decide.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@Peter_Fitz Been hot in Mildura for more than 3 weeks. Maybe rain & cooler sunday

[Phil @Philip8998]

@abcsport Imagine if Collingwood finished last. No way would they go down.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@tim_michell Can you upgrade tdk

[Phil @Philip8998]

@CharlieDons @JonathanJWalsh @bill_wints Yes. Danny Morgan ABC & bombers is the same person. Good journo & handy footballer

@tylermaher5 @SheppNewsSport Vitas Gerulaitis (USA) also won Shepparton Open & went on to win Australian Open in December 1977

@ScooterMcNeice @BomberRicko Brett Thomas seems to be freelancer from Qld. Good publicity for Bombers but disappointing that he doesn't credit the vision. Hopefully he gets feedback.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@ScooterMcNeice Thanks for your work. Many people have a crack at me when I tell them I am a bomber supporter. I remind them when I was a kid we had hard times. Then 4 flags in 15 years. Our time will come again.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@ScooterMcNeice We are going to improve in 2025 with hard work. All the doubters will eat their words. We need to stand united & not listen to outside noise.

[Phil @Philip8998]

@RookieMeCentral Interesting family history. I believe grandfather & father played games for Carlton.
