Given the tiresome (false) "Richmond give away more free kicks because of their game style" narrative - let's play along & ONLY look at how the opposition is officiated when playing Richmond. How can the entire competition miracously behave better ONLY when playing Richmond?

No other club comes close to such a disparity.
It's really an amazing scenario given the above statistics don't even factor Richmond's own free kick statistics.
The Fremantle horror show the catalyst to compile this data.
The numbers don't lie.

Once you factor in Richmond free kicks against, the numbers are nothing short of horrific. Every game is effectively playing with -7 to -10 free kicks and that's NOT including non calls which the above diagram illustrates.
RFC are objectively officiated differently.
Damning.
