Do you think teams continue Covid measures during the season or we just see heaps of outs?

I followed the score but didn't watch. My interest in football has waned since 2020. Don't think I need the gloom of bad Richmond in my life again. 30 years was enough.

So Eddie's thing about getting rid of goal umpires and having two umpires near the goals, is that as dumb as it sounds?

I'd be playing Dusty on Friday night against the Eagles. Yes, he's very underdone. But he's Dusty. And the Tigers can't afford another loss.
Tigers are playing one of two teams (the other is North) where I doubt they need the extra help.

That smother was fantastic commitment. I was livid because there was a free player ahead a handball away and Castagna had to try to make up for his misses all night.

Richmond's 9 game streak was ended by Port Adelaide in a 2014 elimination final.

Collingwood defeated Port today to win their 10th straight game.

So was that a screw up by the umpire to pay Richmond a free but do a score review for a score that didn't matter?

For those not watching Balta was awarded a free for a push in the back in the Brisbane goal square as another Tigers player touched the ball barely over the line, prompting the goal umpire to request a score review. The field umpire said Balta got a free kick but stopped play for a score review which was determined a goal but didn't matter.

It's interesting that enough investigations were done by AFL and Safework to determine the camp was not only absolved of wrongdoing but early this year media outlets were forced to apologise for previous reporting on it. I believe Betts completely, but wonder why the media would buckle under what must have been insufficient investigations. Maybe there was no money lost so they just didn't care enough to fight it.

State government body SafeWork did an investigation and found no wrongdoing. Can't say whether they suck as an institution or what but it looks like they fumbled it bigtime.

It was one of the CM people who said that to Betts.

Definitely not a teammate.

The thing is, the media was really only apologising for insinuating that the camp was run in bad faith. Essentially apologising for calling them malevolent, rather than just dangerously incompetent.

"Wrongdoing" is a pretty strong word. If the camp just consisted of them insulting the players for a weekend, it would be a lovely camp, but would it be wrongdoing? Where is the line crossed? The issue here isn't that the players were assaulted or otherwise interfered with illegally. Rather, they were just treated with absolute disrespect, and had their trust in the club abused. Like it was surgically designed to destroy the culture of what had been a pretty tight-knit group.

That grand final was less than five years ago. Of the 22 Adelaide players that took the field that day, only six are even still on the list, and only two (Walker and Laird) are currently in the side. The other four include Matt Crouch (almost certain to leave at the end of the year), Rory Sloane (ACL injury), Paul Seedsman (ongoing concussion issues) and Luke Brown (has seemingly lost his spot to Patrick Parnell), all of which could very conceivably never play for the Crows again. That squad went from contending for a premiership to being completely dessicated in the space of five years. Actually, most of them were gone within three years. Nine of them (Brad Crouch, Kelly, Atkins, Cameron, Hartigan, Lever, Greenwood, Betts, Jenkins) requested trades to other clubs, while Daniel Talia ended up leaving with bad blood between him and the club. What an absolute hatchet job.
Right I see. It's unfortunate that a conclusion that it was run in 'good faith' can easily be construed to mean what was alleged did not happen. It seems the camp's website certainly have framed it that way.

2020 was a tight game until the last quarter.

In 2021 the blow-out after a tight first half was unexpected and cool.

Admitting ignorance here. Why do women's games have such low scores? I understand the blow-outs because the league expanded at a rate where there's not enough talent to fill positions, but what is it that makes so many games just a few goals?

^^^Cheers for all the info. I'm gonna get into the Richmond team for the rest of the season after hearing they knocked off undefeated Brisbane.

It'll be interesting to see how the women's game evolves given the differences highlighted in SS's post.
