I'd like to see Yze read Scott's diatribe verbatim at the next post match presser and then just sit back and wait for the meeting with the AFL.
Won’t do it club has no balls from the top down
 
It's baffling that they are still going so hard. Hardwick, Balme, Peggy and soon Gale gone. Most of the leadership group gone or on the way out. They're just gonna punish the fans now? Did we enjoy our little time in the sun too much after 2 whole generations of eating shit?

I think there was a directive against our tactics around 2020… now it is subconsciously baked into officiating which is much harder to remedy (unless of course we make some sort of public outcry)
 
another Richmond hater. always gives us doughnuts and and notoriously trigger fingered against us with the 50s. every week we cop at least one fifty that is blatantly wrong.

And the CFL still are putting em in a Richmond clash uniform.
Fed up with the Corrupt Football League.

You know the uniform thing is deliberate. Conditioning of the masses
 
when is the club actually going to stand up and say something
The Fluoros lean heavily into umbrage as response. The weedy centrals then develop their own set of clues, their "little miracles" that get screamed at (against?) your club in the following weeks (seasons?). If they're going Salty Chris and his boys, mang, there's serious head wobble with magnificent swell.

They be strutting big time, ordering up shots of HIGJAM

If they go at Salty' pussies, they'll go anyone! Well maybe Brad's boys will safe for a bit?

Anyhooo, a reasonable alt. strategy - Get the AFLPA to hoot and holler behind closed doors. Remove "Shockings" rules. Get ruck nom's shelved for good.

Your fourth sentence is the most salient.
They are punishing the supporters because of the outcry over the past few years.

Corruption doesn't like to be exposed.
 
The stand rule is a perfect example of rule which is open to manipulation. How long it tales to call play on can be varied.

The protected area rules can be varied just as easily, with 50m penalties dished out or not as necessary.

There have always been grey areas, such as what constitutes a mark and what doesn't.

But the rule changes of recent years have taken it to another level.

I'm not prepared to accept it is a coincidence. It looks like a strategy, a means to an end.

What many see as institutionalised incompetence can often be something more sinister hiding behind a veil of deliberate mistakes.
 
Few have given thought to the effects of years of this umpiring on the players.

We have professional players who tackle but almost never see a holding the ball decision. In their favour, that is, only against them.

If I was Taranto or Hopper, I'd be wondering what on Earth waa happening. They never received this treatment regularly at GWS.

I stopped watching last night's game with the free kick count at 13 to 2. We did give away some dumb frees, as we do in every game, but the missed frees are now a joke that I can't tolerate any longer. I just cannot understand how 4 umps missed Vlastuin's dangerous tackle, and missed his handball that he was pinged for. You can tell the players have had enough - Rioli twice asked the umpires about the 50M penalty..

The AFL have shafted us for 8 years, and I'm waiting for a game where the players just walk off in protest. Far fetched, but players will want out of Tigerland and we won't be able to attract players if this keeps going on...

Just look at how well looked after Dimma's Suns are now....
 
We are in the current process of being systematically destroyed as a power Club!
We are in the current process of being systematically destroyed as a Destination Club!
We are in the current process of being systematically destroyed as a 100,000 member Club!
We are in the current process of being systematically destroyed as a worthwhile Club worthy of Sponsorship!
We are in the current process of being systematically destroyed as a Club worthy of Powerful/Rich Coteries!
We are in the current process of being systematically destroyed with our Home Ground Advantage reduced to playing on late Sunday Afternoons!
We are in the current process of being systematically destroyed as a Club for footy lovers to watch with our rare TV exposure.
Just canna wait for next year's AFL Football Fixture!
If we do manage to fortunately secure first and second Draft picks, the AFL will go out of their way to help them easily leave ala Norff!
We will be the First Club to be ravished by the AFL when Tassy arrives.
Who will care about our new renovated PRO! Even if the Club manages to pay for its costly Reno! Will the Club be able to afford its costly upkeep!

Crazy how different his free kick tally is against when he was at Tigerland.
Boy's Club have got us where they want us.

Injuries we have copped,the CFL must be elated.

The exciting headline about us getting beat says it all.

Cats get absolutely smashed the headline reads,Cats Fall to Gold Coast lol.

Non aggenda
 
I saw the umpire warn a Port player about 666 instead of paying a free against.

Now we all know what the cheats would do if it was Richmond.
 
The good thing about us being s**t is that I don't have a conniption every time we get *******ed by a yellow maggot
Yeah me too BB. I'm really surprised with myself how at peace I am with it these days. Like a few of our players, I think I'm still full to the brim with premiership feels.
 
And the CFL still are putting em in a Richmond clash uniform.
Fed up with the Corrupt Football League.
thats on us. we changed our sash colour to the umpires fluro
