It's a self fulfilling prophecy at this point.

Shockingly over officiated game. 40 total free kicks with 2 minutes left in the third quarter.

Was also interesting to hear when he was talking about the casual clothes, that for the past couple of years something like that would have leaked to the media early in the week but this year it was kept quiet. Sort of crazy that even the players were aware of how much we were leaking. Is it now safe to assume the leak is either no longer at the club or has finally been silenced?

Looking back at the highlights, i absolutely loved the response to paddy's first goal. The genuine excitement and happiness on everyone's face as they got to him couldn't have been more indicative of Kingy's imperative to above all else have fun. Given the stage of the game and the close margin, celebrating a first goal might get lost a little. Yet all the boys were there and genuinely pumped to see paddy's first goal sail through. Felt like they knew they had a job to do, but weren't going to stop having fun on the way to finishing that job.

I had lost the faith at half time in the game day thread and was rightfully called out. Putting my hand up to say I’ve never been happier to be proved wrong. This truly is a new era!

Sparrow. 29 touches, 7 tackles and a goal. nuff said. 🔵🔴

Gonna have to do it against the umps in the last it seems

Play like this and I’m certain we’ll hand Essendon their first win. Goodwin broke these players, never seen a group more in their heads than ours.

Spineless performance, boys should be ashamed of themselves. Also umpiring is [censored]

Fritta was mature enough last year to respond the right way to getting dropped. If you're scared that dropping someone once will make them want to leave the club or spit the dummy, they're probably not the guy you want at your club. If Rivers is made of the right stuff (and i believe he is), I'm sure he too will respond maturely to this call and in many respects it could play a part in helping him become the a-grader most of us think he is going to be.

Liam Ryan hitting a bloke off the ball in the head, very on brand for him. Has always been and continues to be a dirty player. (Also hit max gawn in the head off the ball in our game)

It has to be said as well that Patrick Voss is a horrible waste of perfectly good oxygen. What an embarassing, self centred, egotistical individual.

Steele tried really hard all day, not the best day for us but it’s clear we’re gonna get 110% from him every week. We’re lucky to have him.

Not suggesting it’s why we lost but that was a classic Perth umpiring display. Shocking and consistently disgraceful umpiring didn’t help us out one bit. Holding the ball only paid for one team out west.

this umpiring is so cooked

Much better quarter, boys are trying hard, the path to goal isn’t as efficient but it’s not always going to be smooth sailing. Simply though we aren’t going to win this game playing against 22.

Voss is a ducking [censored]. What an absolute embarrassment of a human being.

Patrick Voss’s own father is embarrassed of him I reckon.

Jim's game is back again for a second year. Will take place against Brisbane in Round 6. So great that the club is continuing to honour the legacy of a club legend. P.S. Also hope this means the jig is back!

Career best game for Roo, absolutely love that for the young man!!

Kingball is fun 🔴🔵

I love Omac still but gee Neale gave him a bath today.

Pathetically soft effort from mcvee. Enjoying those midfield minutes at freo champ??

pretty sloppy display, should be closer but richmond lacking a lot of polish trying to finish off their work.

McGovern loves a flop, still remember him trying to flop against melky couple of years ago.
