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....

    why the usual half time break?

    Thought they all wanted to shorten it and it was only kept so the fans could get to the toilet etc....No fans ...so

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

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

    God. This is incredibly boring. If that is what we are in for there really is no point. I’m going to watch Netflix - had enough.

    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.

    Should become a free agent right in our premiership window, so I recon it's payback time.

    Basically in junk time as far as I'm concerned. 

    He would have been handy, but not at inflated prices.

    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.
