It has been reported on Sport 927 this morning.
Can anyone shed any light?

He called him allegedly a 'b*** c***'

This is only what I heard on Sport 927.

Do not shoot the messenger.

Before this gets out of hand, can I just say, let's not speculate on Collingwood players. I think we should just wait and see how it all pans out. So can we please not speculate!

Thankyou.

I doubt it, his mum would kill him....

lol

I agree can we not speculate on all of this. I hate to think where this sort of talk may head and if it is just rumour it is better left alone to die and not be made out to be more than it actually is....

Cheers

great to see that the press can always find something to bag Collingwood about rather than praise them for a good win....isn't it amazing, as long as I have been following footy the press alwasy seems to talk about how the opposition won and not how well Collingwood perform

I doubt the umpire would make such an accusation unless he was pretty sure who said it....

NP.... it's a pretty serious offence, considering Tarrant's high profile and the politically correct world of today (if he did it).... this is hardly something the media r going to ignore.

For anyone that wishes to speculate, go here and do it:

I reckon its crap myself. Tarrant and Leon Davis get along great and im sure Tarrant wouldnt dispect his mate by dissing the goal umpire like that.

Seems like people taking a cheap shot at Tarrant who has been a star peformer this year.

ok, lets just wait until further information is released...if its not, then we know it was just bull right? I really dont see taz saying that, but i guess u neva know, he couldve slipped up being so angry. I was sitting closely behind that umpire and i saw them exchange words, but i just dont think tarrant would say that, especially knowing the consequences? Anyway isnt his favorite movie Friday? lol enough said!
