Over the last week there has been a lot of misinformation published regarding AFL Umpiring. This misinformation just fuels anti-umpiring sentiment which is not good for umpires or the game itself. It also unfairly demeans the professionalism of the umpires. The AFLUA wishes to correct the record and AFLUA CEO Rob Kerr has provided a statement which can be found here, https://lnkd.in/gF6eGKTa

For the recent AFLUA Hall of Fame Night, the AFLUA wanted to commission a video that captured the immersion of umpires in our great game, and could be used to promote umpiring. CEO, Rob Kerr, had an idea and took it to AFL Media's Paul Bastin, Bianca Smith and Chris Bell for putting it together. The video was well received by the umpires at the Hall of Fame night and has now reached over 20,000 people across our socials.
