    Yes lets all blame the umpires for being 25 pts down at half time. It had nothing to do with them kicking beautifully inside 50 to loose players and us kicking to 3 on 1 contests...

    We also seem to have 3 players going up in defence in a marking situation, leaving us exposed. The disallowed goal or the missed 50 for ball stripoing early would have prevented us from playing catch up, but until the last 15 minutes the tigers have had higher intensity.
    Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.

    The two decisions you described were genuine howlers - the umpiring equivalent of dropping a chest mark in the goal square. But you're certainly correct that there is one team going much harder than the other, and sadly it ain't our boys. Certainly looks like we haven't prepared for this Richmond approach properly, which seems very strange indeed.
