What's your decision?
|
with UMPIRE HEAD
Hi everyone. Umpire Head here again.
Thanks to everyone who entered last week's What's Your Decision competition.
Wasn't it fun.
Anyway the correct answer was PLAY ON because I actually missed the incident due
to the fact that a player was bashing me up at the time.
And the winner of our competition is MASTER D GOLDSPINK of North Reservoir who
wins an autographed action photo of me.
Thanks to everyone who sent me get well cards. Lots of people have asked me how I
am and to tell the truth I'm still pretty sore. I suppose that's only to be
expected after being smashed into by the full body of an AFL footballer. Darren,
a mate of mine, reckons it's the same as being hit by a truck. Not a big semi
trailer or anything but maybe like one of those bemo ones they have in Indonesia.
And not travelling all that fast. Maybe parked and you run backwards into it.
Hurts like anything.
Thanks to everyone who asked what I've been up to lately. Well what I'm doing is
collecting stories about me from newspapers, radio and TV. I'm pretty famous now.
I'm collecting all the stuff so I can build up a scrapbook of things because when
you're in the AFL it's important to have a high profile and be able to prove it
sponsors and managers and that.
Thanks to everyone who's asked the secret to my success.
Well the answer is there's no secret. In fact as my mate Darren says: "The harder
I work the more secret I get." Something like that.
Anyway here's this week's What's Your Decision action photo. It's from a game I
umpired between Fremantle and the Dockers. I'm not sure who won. Might not have
been a winner...
But I do remember this incident.
What would your decision have been? Get your entries to me and next week I'll let
you know the right answer.
This week I'll give you a little hint. There's a dirty player in this
photo...that's it.
Thanks again to all my fans.
