I think if you are a recidivist, if you do it a number of times, then you are at risk of reputational damage.

But I think the reputational damage for Zach Butters has actually been overblown.

I get why he's pushing back, but I also don't think it's going to affect him one iota going forward.

I think what will potentially affect him and Port Adelaide is

if and when Nick Foote does the next Port Power game or the Port Adelaide game.

I think that will be an interesting moment in time.

I think you made some salient points, Darcy.

Appreciate your call.

Let's go to Jack on the road.

G'day, Jack.

Jack, appreciate your call.

I think the pushback from umpires is they believe, this is their view, that they're actually better umpires because they're not fully professional.

They get a chance to switch off rather than think about what's a hole in the ball, what's a push in the back, what's an insufficient intent all day.

I see both points.

I think it would make some sense for some umpires to be fully professional, but I'm not sure it's actually financially feasible to make every single field umpire financially full-time, which has been a point for a while now, and so far the umpires have...

have pushed back on that.

Okay, Jack, appreciate your call.

Thanks for jumping on.

Let's have a listen to what Razor Ray Chamberlain said last night on AFL 360 regarding player abuse on the field.

I had one more recently, just before the end of my career, a player made a comment that was in a similar vein about whether I was wearing an opposition jumper under my shirt.
