Fair or not that score line is just awful. I really want the women’s comp to be successful but at the moment people are going along when it’s free. How long will be people tolerate paying for a game like that though?

Why is his sitter being brought into it? Like not even in a way that gets him off the hook, he wanted out way before that. His narrative was never pity me and my family it was “Ive got my money and I’m footy royalty now do what the gently caress I say to” and Gold Coast rightfully told him to gently caress off. I have no pity for him at all. He knew what he was doing when he moved to GC and he knew what he was doing when he extended. Priorities change etc but he’s a big boy getting paid a fuckload of money. He doesn’t need white knighters defending his honour.

Carey is so emblematic of the AFL community being laughable with its women outreach. Don’t disrespect women, oh unless you can kick a ton of goals mate, then glass a woman and assault a cop and gently caress your teammates wife and assault a woman in Melbourne she’ll be right mate hahaha I mean I know tons of players get away with tons of poo poo but Carey is still considered a god and now has so many media features it’s like it never happened

racing identity posted:Just remembered that Adelaide was by far the best team last year and Richmond rolled downhill into a premiership on the back of two home finals they didn't earn and now Adelaide's window is over and Eddie Betts will never play in a premiership Adelaide fans will never stop being funny. It was amazing walking down swan street as a tigers supporter last year after the game. Great job on playing well in every game except the one that counted though

I don’t like Adelaide but that’s good news. I’m really torn on player loyalty poo poo. One one hand you don’t want it to be like the USA where players have no affiliation with clubs and move all the time, but on the other hand it’s a job- people should be able to make decisions for their career. Of course we as fans always take it personally. Go dusty / gently caress you lids etc

NTRabbit posted:The community hasn't forgiven him, most people think he's a poo poo bloke, a handful of media companies have forgiven him, and a handful of old boys club other commentators don't even admit he needed forgiving because they don't want their memories of his playing days tarnished. The community would have to boycott watching the football to do anything about it, because there's no way to get around it. Yeah you’re right. Just poo poo. Like I know this is naive as anything but the AFL company aside the community has seen things like the AFLW, indigenous round, the start of a pride round, white ribbon etc. sport can be such a positive influence in the community and “hah hah AFL” aside it can still be quite a community focused game (or at least it feels like it in Victoria) Then you’ve got loving Carey on everything

Great game, go tiges. On a serious note with AFLW chat my wife and I found out we are having our first child, a daughter, in December. Get your poo poo together AFL. I want her to be able to go to women’s or men’s games and it just be normal that there are both major comps. And it be normal for Richmond to be (back to back?) premiership winners

Spedman posted:So we should be happy the biggest club in the AFL is dominating the comp? We got good in the last half of last year and got lucky that Adelaide poo poo their pants in front of 100,000 people, and we’re only one game in front of the top spot now. We are doing well we haven’t been “dominating” Also to strap on- Geelong complain about home game at the MCG but don’t complain about the crowd size / money they get back from it. It’s like if hawthorn started losing in tassie, well yeah they don’t have home games but who is really to blame?

Gaff shouldn’t have been let back on. I’m really not up on the whole “red card” debate, how many sports don’t have some ability to immediately kick a player off for something like that? Also, why the gently caress are so many people defending this guy? “So our of character!”, gently caress, the poor victim is probably going to be having smoothies for what, 8 weeks? Ugh

It’s in your character to assault someone breaking their jaw. “Perfect record” nope, not anymore. “Haven’t you ever made a mistake” yes but I’ve never put anyone in hospital for it.

Diet Crack posted:
The salt is delicious. Richmond are bottom on getting frees and top on them being paid against. I was at the game last night and some Essendon fan screamed about the umps paying a free to Richmond literally while the scoreboard showed Essendon on 28 and Richmond on 14. And yeah finals will be hard. Hopefully we’ll win but once you get to eliminations it’s anyone’s game. But “tigers are advantaged at the MCG” is such a copout to how well we’ve been playing. And especially since half the other teams in Melbourne have their home at the same loving ground, any team can play well there as they should try to, it hosts the most games in the sport.

Solemn Sloth posted:to be fair though, you have only been playing well at the MCG, so it seems like your significant advantage is a legit topic for discussion Except we won at etihad every time this year too? We lost two Adelaide and port and the eagles, and lost against GWS by two points. If the MCG was such a benefit what explains Richmond from the 1980s- mid 2017?? Anyway I don’t care, I guess having a premiership and then one good season (let’s see how long it lasts for us) means we are stop horrible behemoth of a club that should be stopped

Hannah mouncey has said she isn’t going to be playing footy anymore. How does this compare to other sports worldwide? Other contact sports as well? I don’t really know how to feel with it all. Like “she identifies as a woman so she’s a woman” works for not being a dick in social situations but I just think of the difference in build of someone who grew up with a male bone structure etc vs the vast majority of the female comp. but even that is that just a trans panic lovely opinion? :/

As a Richmond supporter obviously I’m happy he fits in so we aren’t just relying on reiwoldt and also maybe even so we’re not just relying on nankervis in a pinch, BUT It does suck that we are basically poaching a great player from a poo poo team, like salary caps mean that any one team can’t be too crazy with this however it certainly can mean a bunch of the lower teams are kept down and the higher teams stay up. I get the compensation stuff but what can be done about this? Or is it just the players association won’t do anything that restricts the ability of players to move where they want?
