Agree that this is grossly overused.

Some of these ???touched endlessly looking at the fingers and so often inconclusive.

In which case, use umpires call and stick with the on field decision. If there isn't enough evidence to overturn it, then it should stay as is

The president has said Richo has the boards' full support.

Usually means the decision has already been made and they are planning the execution.

It would be more believable if the prez came out and said, we can't sack him coz it would be too expensive.

Which might be right, he's contracted through the end of 2020. So this and two more seasons. Ouch.

Nothing says "AFL applying worlds best practice" like looking at grainy blurred lo res footage and using it to overturn a decision made by an actual human 2m from the event that they're reviewing.

In tandem with good development and a good culture. If players aren't coached properly, they don't win games every week and they certainly don't win the ultimate prize. 

Humanity has a real issue with viewing everything as black and white (I am still guilty of this, but am trying to change). It is never that simple. 

I know other things are needed, but my post was that List Management/Recruiting is the most important aspect.

You need the socks before you can pull them up.

Go Freo

Honestly, is Jenkins the biggest pretender of all time? 800k a year? Omg

Must be something about wearing #4 on your back

He’s such a putz. Just stands in the goalsquare looking for the easy goal. I wouldn’t want him on our list even if he was on rookie wages.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
