Sydney coach Paul Roos has called on the AFL to pay umpires larger full-time salaries and offer a university course so as improve the standard of umpiring and make it a legitimate professional career path, reports the Age.
Roos said the errors and inconsistencies made by umpires at AFL level was frustrating. He said full-time salaries of $150,000 to $200,000 would bring them up to the level of other officials in the AFL.
