they annoyed me a bit last night the commentators.
when deledio flew past braun at the last second and took the ball near the boundary and passed it to someone inside 50 it was one of the best bits of play for the night.
but they were waffling on about something else and only made a passing reference to it when they saw the replay. if kerr did that they would have been frothing at the mouth over it.
also edwards smother in the eagles forward pocket was brilliant from a first year player but they didn`t say a word about it.
if that was a first year player like selwood from geelong they would have been gushing about how disciplined that was from a first year player.

umps need to pay equivalent free kicks
What sh!t! I didn't hear any complaints when West Coast weren't paid some of the free kicks, Richmond were paid early. I saw West Coast get some free's unwarranted and I saw Richmond get some unwarranted free's, it went both ways. Richmond had far too many scoring opportunities from uncontested football,
the want to play contested football just doesn't exist at this club, it always lies with the soft option, when things get hot Richmond is always found lacking, I was disgusted with the commentary about Richmond having a honorable loss, they were clearly beaten again and too many players went MIA, your playing a last years Premiers who are clearly not at their best and Richmond should've taken that on board and thought "Let's take it to these pricks and win the bloody game" But the same old excuses will get rolled out and we'll all pat each other on the backs for a job well done cause the only thing that cost us victory was the umpires.
Bowden done well again, lots of ineffective possessions, Lynch kicked 7.
what sh!t!
we had 104 contested possessions to their 90.
bowden was 83% effective with his possessions.
Mopsy, who won the game? I don't know how the stats people tick the appropriate boxes, but I felt Richmmond were never gonna win the game, they had too many uncontested possessions in their forward 50, that would always dry up if West Coast felt threatened, I find it disrespectful that West Coast take it easy and don't put their right foot forward when playing Richmond, like a lot clubs, they just don't take the Tigers seriously, its the ultimate slap in the face for the club.
