This is from our 2017 final against Geelong. Dangerfield has a massive history of this behaviour, but never gets called out for it.
Cheat player, cheat club, cheat ground

That is supremely awesome, he starts falling before contact is even made, like whats that character from Mortal Kombat that does the sonic boom...is it Raiden? Whatever, its magnificent
Yep, "nothing to see here" - Chris Scott lol.

Dylan Grimes was crucified when he did it against the Crows, yet this flog is lauded as a hard player and continues this weak crap.

All teams have players who do it, some more than others like Geelong, yet they like to focus on one or two from Richmond to divert the attention from their team.

It was a bit of a dive/exaggerated contact.

Hardly anything to suspend over or even fine for that matter.

Fines are for the howlers, AFL too soft to suspend.



Grimes and Zorko were both fined and rightfully so!

Agreed, but to only isolate 2 incidents from 1 game when there are so many more is frustrating.

If AFL were serious they would look at all games the same way instead of cherry picking certian incidents in the hope it sets an example.

It's the one where Davis shepharded him out fo the marking contest and knocked him to the ground.

Unlike the one last week where Dangerflop dove through the marking contest without contact lol
Not a chance it was that one, as the replay clearly showed heavy compression on Reiwoldt's arm from forceful contact.
The OP must be talking about a different incident.

He’s an absolute shocker when it comes to diving. A shocker.

And he’s getting worse. Bloody good player, as they often are, doesn’t need to do it.

Now calling Jack Flopsy.

That free and 1st goal was a gutless act. These guys are serious athletes and to flop to the ground with minimal contact was pretty embarrassing.

But Flopsy won another flag and all will be forgotten.

I’m sure Jacks going to lose a lot of sleep over this
