Riewoldt is doing it to the player next to him as well. Unsure why that wasn’t also reported on. 

I'm sure we all know why

Best spin I’ve seen since Warney’s leg breaks by Ward but hey, it’s the Dons. 

As much as I hate the Bummers, I hope Ward gets a hefty fine for that effort... worse than Papley’s in as far as it directly impacted the result

God this is weird.  Id be surprised if Chol wasnt angry about it.  If anyone stuck their finger in my bum they'd be knocked out cold on the spot.  And I didnt even mentioned the constant penis grabbing.  

What does everyone else think?  Watch the video before you comment

I saw it when they sang the song last week and I thought how weird. What possesses another person to do that. But it has happened more than once. I mean if I'm Short or Vlastuin I'd look back and think why would I do that. Would I really want someone doing that to me. Just sing the song and be done with it. But I kind of like how Dimma got taken to task on it. I bet after the presser there was a bit of scrambling going on to see what happened.

It has not gone unnoticed

Big Footy board (general) has a lively discussion as does the Tigers sub forum

I noticed a post that it's now in the hands of the AFL integrity unit... (no I cannot comment)

Essendon losing no matter the margin always makes for a good weekend when it’s under a goal with a dodgy free kick just makes it a little sweeter.

Does Ward deserve a fine for his dive? I’m in two minds, I hate divers but I also love seeing Essendon lose after a dodgy free kick is paid against them.

And here's the Richmond apology...

Richmond's statement released later on Friday said: "It had become aware of some player behaviour during post-match team songs recently that is unacceptable and not in line with the club or community expectations."

"It was a stupid action and I am deeply embarrassed. I've apologised to Mabior," Vlastuin said.

"It was unacceptable behaviour and a poor example," Short said.

It’s been an interesting discussion post game on Fox ht. Ward himself said he played it well because he knew contact was coming. At first glance it looked like over exaggerating post contact. 

Interesting to see if they do fine him, because if they do are they admitting an umpire error possibly cost a team the game? It can’t be a free and staging at the same time. I don’t necessarily blame the ump in this instant, it all happens quick out there.

A good ump would just put the whistle away and let the game play out.

There's not many of those around.

Close results aside that was an atrocious game.

It was played on the boundary line. Ball was out maybe 60-70% of the time. Strangely it was almost always on the camera side of the ground

Same for so many games.

I watched the F1 warm up (very boring) and then skipped through the game(kayo 30 second jump is wonderful).

I don’t watch non MFC matches these days aside from the occasional Essendon match when they are a chance to lose. I stopped last night half through the 3rd when they were well up. Best start to the day to wake up this morning and find they got rolled. 

(My other guilty pleasure is Scully leaving Melbourne when we were [censored], going to a [censored] GWS and finally settling on a [censored] Hawthorn. Yes I know he is filthy rich)

Ward free was there

Russian judge gave him an 8.8 for the pirouette midair

It was definitely there - hip to neck - but he did make the most of it.

The thing that scares me about the run home is we are playing our classic bogey teams  (North, Pies, St Kilda, Doggies).

We seem to always lose to them no matter how well we are traveling.  Especially bloody North and the Saints.

That's assuming of course, that all of those teams above us from 5th to 11th lose their games - signed, The Wet Blanket ?

Doggies losing today would help our cause.   The other 3 teams playing today are irrelevant to us, they will all finish top 4.   Just need the Lions to get the job done.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
