afl and chris salt knew we were gonna win 5 flags making us the greatest team of all time by far and they wouldnt have that now would they
I'm predicting next year we will lull the comp into a false sense of security. Come the bye round we will be sitting nicely in 9th spot (see what I did there), the media and oppo will be about to write our obituary then Richmond 2019 will step up to the plate to destroy the AFL once and for all. Taranto and Hopper might as well start practising how a premiership medal feels sitting on their necks.

Here's my take on the recent rule changes and how a lot of them were anti-Richmond.

1. 6-6-6 starting positions at centre bounces.
Of all teams, Richmond set up least in this formation. Fox Footy ran a stat that in 2018 prior to this rule coming in, the Tigers setup in 666 something like 3% of the time. This rule therefore theoretically affected us the most.

2. Kick-ins
After a point, the bloke kicking in has free rein to run a fair way and exit defence easily, compared to when you had to stay in the goalsquare. Who were the absolute masters at locking the ball in to our forward line and getting repeat entries? The Tigers. This rule meant that opposition could bypass our pressure/zone.

3. Prior opportunity at ruck contests
Rucks can now take the ball out of the ruck without being penalized HTB. This helped teams with strong rucks and penalized teams who were notorious for using hybrid rucks. Cough..Grigg..cough.

4. Stand.
Think we all know the bullshittery behind this dog of a rule.

There's some other rules that are just crap all round. The ruck nomination rule, protected area infringements, dissent to name a few.

Only half decent rule they brought in was stopping giving free kicks to players who raise/shrug their arm to draw high contact. Although the interpretation of this rule has been woefully applied, it's a good starting point.

benny needs to get in and release evidence of the afl deliberately trying to end certain clubs

might destroy the afl but it will be worth it

we can start our own comp after that with blackjack and hookers
 
The umpiring has been Discraceful, why? Becouse these bullshit rules have given them too much to think about, get rid of them and the umpiring will improve dramatically

seriously at every contest they are having to look for about 10 rules in the space of 2 seconds, then they are having to deal with what teams and players the AFL has instructed them to umpire for/against

i hate the campaigners but at the same time they are screwed with how it's been set up now

Bombers new CEO was ex-NAB chairman and was a major cog in the Royal commission into inappropriate banking practises resulting in huge fines and Thornburn standing down and forfeiting millions in payments. He was also found guilty of having extravagant family holidays partly funded by dishonest practises….

Who is in charge of conducting due diligence …?!?? You’d think they’d be pretty over the top after the Dank and Robinson debacle. And assuming they knew the history, what on earth are they doing putting someone with very questionable ethics in charge of that joint ?

Mind boggles …….

Hahaha …. he resigns because he’s part of a church that believes homosexuality is a sin …. but no mention of his questionable record and ethics as head of NAB…. could the Bombers be any more embarrassing to support?

Geez I hope Brad Scott doesn’t go to church on Sundays….

Didn’t he do the external review that sacked Rutten and the former CEO and recommended himself as CEO 😄

Essendon 2022 … the gift that keeps giving
 
I was totally shattered when Geelong won the GF but Essendon appointing Brad Scott and the CEO debacle today has returned a smile to my face
They sacked Truck, then no one but the scapings of life wanted much to do with them.

I mean, and just to add to their malaise, What does Dodo Kok blok if we don't take an early draft selection. That's his soul purpose for living.

This year? that bloke, he be Roo Ted.

It's like Karma just popped in for a coffee and wants to say... Hi ho the diddllio ya all campaigners, my bus has A....Rived!
