Didn't Tucker cock up with an umpire referral and Kallis against England? Went for only one aspect when it seemed he didn't edge/glove it.

Either way, spineless umpiring today.

Yep, got that one badly wrong as well. The hand was off the bat.

Crikey, that was a very close lbw shout.

Didn't MB post about how it's not about just one part but any evidence to overturn a decision could be used by a third umpire to reverse it (as opposed to just what the umpire asks)? Thought the same would apply here. If I remember correctly, which is doubtful.

by skully Sat 08 Dec 2012, 07:29

Wow, now Jimm-eh gets Emma. Falling like flies.

by tricycle Sat 08 Dec 2012, 07:30

Tucker was the 3rd umpire in this case. The onfield umpire had given Kallis not out.

by Henry Sat 08 Dec 2012, 07:34

Geez, this will probably end today. Shocked

Aye, remember that bit. Just the situation that I was comparing.

Anyway, he is rubbish.

Have to agree, t, he looks out of his depth. Dharmasena on the other hand looks pretty good. I thought he was shit when he first came on the panel but he seems to be pretty consistent these days.

by tricycle Sat 08 Dec 2012, 07:52

Aye, liking Dharmasena's umpiring nowadays.

The umpiring in this match has been far better than the first two.

by skully Sat 08 Dec 2012, 07:57

I dunno what Tucker did to deserve to be on the Elite Panel. He was pretty ordinary at domestic and JAMODI level. Is it a quota thing - a certain number of whiteys are required?? Wink

by tricycle Sat 08 Dec 2012, 08:00

Imperialist racist bastards.
