Round 21 - Adelaide v Richmond - Saturday 16th August - Adelaide Oval.

[Jay]

Did you Richmond fans happen to miss that Sloane GOAL?

Did you Adelaide fans happen to miss the whole GAME?

Yeah the start of the last quarter especially.

When Richmond consistently gave away stupid free kicks, yeah I saw that. What's your point?

Adelaide have no excuses. Literally handed the entire game on a platter. You don't know how salty you sound when clearly the umpires favored the home crowd

"No excuses", apart from the worst goal umpiring decision of all time. Not saying we definitely would have won but it certainly didn't help.

Ok, you had 1 excuse, Richmond had 20 at least

Even if you add the 6 points from the goal, we'd have still won by 4 points.  ;)

Technically you would only add 5 since they get a point for a behind ;)

[Jukes]

Umpiring was pretty poor to favour both sides imo, both sides had the run of the green at varying points...the DRS decision was definitely the correct one though imo. In the end they all balance out pretty much, tiges probably the deserved winners.

Ours cost us an obvious goal. The other calls were 50/50. This one was just a blatantly obvious stuff up.

Oh yes, of course.

I was too excited to think with clarity.  :P

Griggy with 68 SC in less than a half of footy. Hopefully he can have a proper run at it next week.

the wrong goal decision actually helped in the end. from the kick in you scored a goal within like 5 seconds. the classic 7 point play. that's how I look at it anyway

Yup that too

If the goal had counted, maybe we get fired up and win the clearance and kick another goal soon after. End of the day, it was the wrong decision and there is a chance it affected the result.

The score review has to go, and so does the sliding rule. The free paid against Sloane late in that 4th quarter was ridiculous.

that's a maybe though, and a very slim maybe that you could score in that 5 second patch. the extra point is a definite. plus seeing as the Crows didn't get fired up after the goal they kicked after the point (which would fire you up more imo) I don't think they would've from the bounce if the goal was paid. I respect your opinion, especially as it was your team, but I strongly think it actually helped. this took me a while to write feeling pretty seedy in the morning so sorry if I didn't word it very well :P

Haha all good man, I get where you're coming from. Maybe I was a bit fired up passionate last night, but it was still a bullshower call :P

Now let's just sit back and watch the Tiges finish 9th ;D

This - definitely wasn't the match-deciding moment IMO.

And Jay, agree about the sliding rule I think it is a joke. Happened to Cotch a couple of times as well, there's nothing better than seeing blokes like Cotch and Sloane put their head over the ball, but seeing those free kicks last night really was annoying.

You guys know why the sliding rule came in right?
