@RalphyHeraldSun Umpiring has never been better Jon....

Can you believe it? Crows shafted by the contentious Soligo non goal. And the Rachele shepherd on the goal line. And still find a way to win. Incredible

@JontyRalphsmith El Nour deserves a crack at AFL surely? Blokes a star.

Gutsy, gutsy win by Frankston against a decimated Richmond VFL lineup. Played catchup all night after conceding three goals in first three mins & nabbed the lead at the 25-minute-mark of the last to win by 12 pts. Joe Lloyd strong in defence, MSD prospect Jackson Voss had 27.

@RichmondVFL Can we sign El Nour now please

A brave effort comes up short 💔 Goalkickers: Fawcett 2, Yassine, Toner, Ryan, Renfree, Philp, Lowther and Garner.

@Jousting_Sticks 12-13? Mayo.

17 dudes on the injury list and I’d say that 12-13 of them are certain B23 and the rest all could be given youth/form. And Matthew Lloyd is still gonna get on afl dot com and call them an uncompetitive rabble

Im sure Swanny will tick it off ✅️

I'll do it

@AFL @CalTwomey Blues should pay Richmond for developing Walker too. Its only fair.

Sydney chairman Andrew Pridham says teams that draft players out of northern Academies should have to pay a fee of $200,000 to the club that developed the player after the AFL's bidding changes were unveiled 👀 @CalTwomey has the exclusive details: afl.com.au/news/1508432

@1116sen @CobramEstate @SENBreakfast Even though a Vic club is equally negatively impacted as Port are? 🙄

"We're furious. It's putting the 'V' back into AFL." Kochie wasn't happy about the latest draft changes. @CobramEstate | #AFL | @SENBreakfast

@TheWestSport Im sure he'll kick dead straight against us in Saturday 🙄

Jake Waterman is yet to kick more goals than behinds in a game this season, with an overall tally of 12.20. Can he fill his boots against Richmond this weekend? MORE: buff.ly/8m3Vf4f

And this guy was supposed to bring common sense back to the game 🤦‍♂️

@FOXFOOTY What a clown 🤡 Way to speak up too Gerard you coward.

😠 "Do you think that's a good look for the game?!" 🗣 "It's not ideal..." #AFL360's Garry Lyon and the AFL's Greg Swann go head-to-head on the stand rule, with Lyon in disbelief over the Ben Miller call from Anzac Eve.

@1116sen @kanecornes @LockedInSEN Good list apart from The Sopranos. Thats an outrageous call.

"I think it's so overrated it's not funny." @kanecornes lists the 21 most overrated things in the world! 👀 @LockedInSEN | #Crust | #AFL

@FOXFOOTY Haha. Not in full control? He picks it up and does a 180 with it in both hands 🤦‍♂️

“In my opinion, if it’s not a ‘hell yeah’, it’s a definite no …” ‘Razor’ Ray Chamberlain runs through some of the contentious calls from Anzac Eve. 👀 #AFL360

@Richmond_FC @nibhealth Enough is enough. Do something about it @ShaneDunneAU

@FOXFOOTY @DavidZita1 But you don't HAVE to stand the mark? 🤔 Classic AFL refusing to own up to their mistakes.

‘IT WAS THE CORRECT ADJUDICATION’ 🤔 As @DavidZita1 explains on #AFLTonight, Greg Swann said this Ben Miller incident was correctly officiated last Friday.

@3AWisfootball He got 7 stats. Kick ins dont count as a disposal, kick in play-on do.

"He got 14 stats for nothing”. 😯 FULL THOUGHTS 👉 nine.social/17mK

@Lindsaybrownlow @PletsasHellas @Jasperc53 wut

@PletsasHellas @Jasperc53 Willem is a much better ball user than lalor lol, shocking take.

Who, in the last two draft classes, would you confidently pick over Willem Duursma right now?

@Thomo_Grant Does my head in Grant.

Why do commentators see the replay and blatantly deny the vision? Dunstall just said “chopping the arms” which the vision showed he didn’t. By all means don’t question the umpiring if you’re instructed not to (100%) just comment on something else don’t deny the vision.

@JontyRalphsmith @blair_burns9 Probably his best ever game

@blair_burns9 Tom brown looked to have recaptured last year’s form too

As a Richmond fan, you can find some positivity out of Sam Lalor (7clr) and Sam Cumming (5clr) showing plenty in the middle. Burton worked hard and ran 14.5km, Retschko also took a big step. McAuliffe had moments. Grlj good again. 4 of them teenagers. #AFLTigersDees

@mattricho0 Huge impact on the game last night Richo. Some baffling decisions.

Wouldn't change the result but Richmond got the wrong end of a lot of decisions or non decisions last night. Some baffling calls.
