State of the game

[Booney]

you forgot 7 tackles including 6 inside 50, 18 possessions in total, 8 marks, 6 hitouts and 124 fantasy points (3rd best rank on ground).
Amazing what story you can tell using stats...

His first half was exceptional, no doubt, I was highlighting how Rowe was busy beating himself off instead of watching the whole game.

I'd agree with you Boon if Richmond were sitting at the lower end of the eight right now, but they have been the most dominant team this year since the Hawks three peat era off the back of the 2nd half (incl GF) of last year.

But I understand your agenda in what you are saying

He also thought it hit the post...so he can be wrong on so many occasions

From round 15 last year ( up to the GF ) Adelaide lost two games ( 3 and 29 points ) Richmond lost 2 games ( 67 and 14 ). Pretty similar last 10 weeks.

Finished top, won the first home final by 6 goals and the second by 10 goals. Can't be anymore on top than that.

Golden.....

I agree. Going by the stats the crows were the second best team in 2017.

Disagree, they were easily the best team in 2017 and missed a golden opportunity to win a premiership. Golden.

They were the 2nd best team on Grand Final day.

I think they were flattered in 2017 - each to their own.

No need for red cards just make any punch illegal, any punch.

And whats the punishment for an illegal punch?

2 games and a fine. Down to one and a fine first offence.
Fine goes to victims of assault.

Yep as they do now. It'll stamp out this punch in the back/guts behind play.

[marbles]

Yea lets punch out 3 blokes in the granny so its 22 players vs 19 players

[marbles]

Your team mates just been decked and you believe the culprit is welcome to keep playing. Wtf how drongo must u be

[mighty_tiger_79]

How did the umpires behind the play miss it?
They mustve been spectators?

It human nature to keep following the ball with your vision even when you are not the controlling umpire.

I understand that. But the AFL decided to increase upto 3 for the behind the ball incidents.
Another failure.

Yep I understand that too. A footy field is a big playing area, to have "eyes" on every player or player contest, both on & off the ball would mean 18 umpires - yikes!

Red card by video review but only for non football incidents. Off the top of my head it would only be Gaff and Bugg in the last 2 years.
I dont think a red card would be justified in that Freo lads case where he taclked Gray and concussed him or Natanuis tackle. Even the Cameron one 5 weeks is borderline red card for me and i guess thats what the issue is, what would constitute a red card? We have 1 MRO now in an attempt to get consistency, if we have a red card we could have up to 45 different MRO's in one weekend (4umps, 1 res ump)

I’m ok with video review to determine it but it has to be for off the ball incidents.
Cameron was initially going for the ball so I wouldn’t red card him.
Gaff and Bugg I would red card though.
