Love Kossie and his aggression, but he needs to learn the risk (fine lines) of jumping into someone with a raised elbow comes with a consequence.

The AFL prides itself on integrity and officiating games is probably one of, if not the most important aspect of that integrity.
We all know everyone makes mistakes, but tonight wasn’t about mistakes, it was about blatant inconsistent officiating and I will be gracious and say it was probably caused by trying to appease a fanatical crowd.
I do think that Umpires are influenced by the crowd and their own observers when officiating matches. Umpiring is a tough gig and I would hate to be one but when supporters boo decisions (at all grounds) that are actually correct it does not help their cause. And some rules (stand, 50m pen, hands in the back) are simply ridiculous and should be amended to make the umpires job easier.

Will be a perfect night for footy and I hope Petty kicks 5 just to rub it in.

5 changes for the Crows shows how desperate they are.
I hope JVR and Howes can play big ones.

In addition to the Dees I will be heading to the double header on Saturday, im hoping Freo and the Dogs can produce an upset.

I get umpires make mistakes but some of the rules and the application (stand rule, 50m penalties, hands in the back) are becoming a farce.
I would hate to be an umpire in todays game and the lack of opportunity for captains to react/discuss decisions also does not help to build relationships.

Gallagher got the nod this week, nothing against him but 90% of AFL players could get those numbers against WC.

If Baker had his eyes on the ball as part of attempting a mark then Richmond would have a case for appeal.

Have a sneaking suspicion that Kolt could get a call up this week given they've flown him up and with clouds over Chin & perhaps Trac.
After watching the session this morning im thinking the same, cant see Chandler playing.
But I imagine if selected Kolt we be the sub as I think Woey deserves to start.

I doubt Ben Brown will do much training this season, let alone between short breaks.
Does Trac have any visible bandages or strapping?
No, maybe just general soreness.

Tholstrop is also training with the main group.

Good to see Richmond taking the game on and have a go.
As for West Coke im convinced they are worse than us during the Neeld years, which is saying something.

Two years running we have played an Adelaide team in the Gather round. Big disadvantage.
We played Essendon last year, I would prefer their kind stayed in Melbourne :).

The Adelaide media will be out for blood this week and I expect the Crows to come with a response. But otherwise they have been ordinary thus far.

Outside of the GF it's one of the best wins I've seen live. ANB deserves a hug.

Soft goal to give up there but otherwise we have done well to be only 5 points down.

We would make at least 10 times the cost, never seen restaurants, retails and pubs so busy outside of the fringe festival.
