VFL R8: Richmond vs Box Hill Hawks @ City Oval, Sun. May 15

[pmac21]

Wind has died down by the looks

[JP Tiger]

Hawks getting rewarded for one touch tackles while our solid tackles get nothing (see Stack tackle above).  There really seem to be two sets of rules out there …

[one-eyed]

That was 15 from Dow.

Clarke copped it high not paid.


These umps are woeful. Cost us a clear goal.

[pmac21]

Dow beautiful kick in board (went 20) mark not paid play on.  Ball up. 
10 points up 3 qtr time

Seriously what is going on with the umpiring. 
It's infuriating

[pmac21]

Hungriest team will win this game. We need a forward to light it up in the last.

The standard of umpiring is in crisis and it's not due to "dissent". There's too many stupid new rules that they get so many basic decisions wrong.

[pmac21]

Goal them after 20 seconds

[one-eyed]

Getting smashed out of the centrebounces since HT. Our mids reactive, flat-footed and ballwatching.

[one-eyed]

Dumb Cumberland. Have the set shot.

[one-eyed]

Dumb dumb dumb.

64 - 66

[pmac21]

Hicks again, ordinary kick turnover then Cumberland gives away 50.  Dumb.

[pmac21]

9 points down now. 
They're hungriest and have all the run. 
Would help to get a free kick sometimes
