Big difference between the 2. That 50 meter penalty that lambert got really sucked. He should of been penalised.

No. There was no play on call and he was tackled to the ground.

That's where I reckon the rule needs changing.  Waiting for the play on call is unfair to the tackler. While I admit the one tonight was line ball, I reckon the umps should decide the issue without hiding behind a 'no play on' call if it is clear the player was playing on.

Early call, but the Baggers remind me a little bit (actually a lot) of our Neeld era club. Lots of very ordinary players, dodgy recruiting and “guns” who seem to be getting no better (Dow?). It seems they have put 30-50 games into a very ordinary list, and topped up the guns with very ordinary second tier players. Cripps a star, but apart from Walsh, no one else looking like it. Cheap shot by McGovern, then fell over like a pack of spuds. Ordinary! May they continue to suffer!!!!

Agreed. I think Cripps should get out of there. No idea where he should go though....

Blues had 4 first round picks run out tonight.... f k me!

Im watching the league already. 

No no no.... They had 4 number 1 picks run out tonight! 

They have 9 first round picks playing tonight (if you include Martin) 

Most of those picks are top 10 as well....

God. This is incredibly boring. If that is what we are in for there really is no point. 

No different than  any other season opener between Richmond and Carlton.

Absolutely zero atmosphere. The worst thing is that it emphasizes the terrible commentators and umpires.

I was thinking this playing without crowds thing advantages GWS the most out of all the clubs.  It will be like they are getting a home game every round.

He won't go anywhere but if he did it would be back to Perth.

Has tackling become passé in the modern game? I don’t know how you can match the Tigers without closing down space and tackling relentlessly.
