A heroic moment from Tom Lynch ruined by the pedantry of the modern game.

Umpires that don’t understand the game at all.

That rule was brought in for slide tackles and players deliver taking out the legs not for players diving for the ball and punching it off the ground and free loaders trying to get an easy free kick.

Rubbish umpiring.

I honestly feel like I'm living in Stalinist Russia surrounded by official apologists when I watch any footy match these days--not just Richmond. One team is under the pump and coughing up goals then the umps go 11-0 for that team and nobody mentions it as a factor--just them "lifting"--even though that is as good as 500 meters gained (an extra BoG back flanker).

11-0!

26-12 for the match!

They didn't lift. They were lifted!

This happens in so many games. Teams get robbed left, right and center and the paid "special" commentators just blab on about their own sycophantic hyperbolic blah blah and miss the nose on their face--which is an elephant! In a room!

[Diocletian]

Tackling like turnstiles again.....

[Tiger Khosh]

I didn’t put much thought into the free kick count in the first half as the crows were generally on top so you’d expect them to be drawing more. But geeeeezzzz we can be absolutely dominating and can’t buy a free kick yet will give one away if someone’s arm hair makes contact above a crows player shoulder.

The 50/50 calls against us, and then the 50/50 that's not paid to us make me want to 🤮

So many incorrect disposals by the crows and then a tickle to them high and it's a turnover.

Kissed on the d1ck these crows. They've played well, but we have copped it hard from the boys in blue.

I’m not one to bash umpires but this is true for this game. Ridiculous to the extreme that quarter.

Someone send Ralphsmith Tivendale's left foot.

Well said

Ballwatching! High ball at HF and not one Tiger goes for it .

That was soft, Tiges!


The review of this game on Monday is going to be ugly for the players. Embarrassing "efforts".

Our tackling and pressure is rubbish.   

Three premierships and they don’t know how to do it anymore
