Crows win, the town will be unbearable this week :-(
No one highlights umpire errors or bias as the AFL will stamp their papers.
I'm glad the staging by King and Weightman is being highlighted by all media. It is a disgrace and I'm glad it didn't cost the opposition the wins.
Last year Weightman said it was a "skill set" milking frees.
The AFL have to start being tough on them. Fine them, and if they keep doing it, suspend them.
The "keep doing it" should be structured as each incident of staging should be half a week plus a fine. This would match the sanction in association football, where "diving" is penalised as misconduct and a yellow card.
Staging is already a reportable offence according to the Laws of Australian Football. Why aren't these incidents of staging being sanctioned by the MRO?
