Really don’t know what to make of this incident. Bytel is concussed and Darling caused it but is it a football accident with extenuating circumstances or a three week ban? MRO will clearly assess it today given the focus on head knocks 👇heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/afl-…

The bold calls the Tigers might need to make to secure three picks inside 15 in this year’s draft before Brendon Gale’s Tasmania runs into the draft and takes all the top talent.

Ollie Henry, Neale, De Koning, Clark, Holmes, Stengle, Z Guthrie, Miers, Dempsey, Bruhn, Conway. Reckon they are in a good spot with Tom Stewart and Jeremy Cameron still likely to play on for another 3 years

This will be Richmond’s 11th loss by six goals or more in the last 18 games. The 10th loss by 30 points or more in 14 games. The injuries are significant but the Tigers have been non competitive for a while now. What comes up must come down. Unless you are Geelong or Sydney

Brendon Gale says on 3AW reports he will attempt to secure list boss Blair Hartley at Tasmania are not correct. Says Hartley will stay put at Richmond under the current structure and is invested in the current list renovation. Great news for Richmond heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/bren…

Benny Gale’s replacement is a good chance to be Simon. Who? Turns out there are five contenders named Simon, including RFC commercial boss Simon Derrick. Would Kylie Rogers be a possibility to get more club experience? Inside the race to replace Gale 👇 heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/bren…

Benny Gale officially the new Tasmania CEO. Perfect appointment. A massive legacy at Richmond. A huge hole left by the departure of coach, CEO, skipper, recruiting boss, president in recent years. Now the task of thriving despite their loss heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/bren…

James Rendell left footy for a shot at the NFL via one of America’s most famous colleges. The loss of his father – late, great Matt – played a role in the remarkable switch, which came with a poignant coincidence.

A third week in the VFL for Luke Parker which is eyebrow-raising given he finished fourth in the best-and-fairest in 2023. He only kicked at 36 per cent efficiency last weekend with four clangers. 37 touches, nine clearances, four tackles. Sydney's side is stacked right now

Brian Cook last Friday on the hamstring concerns: 'There is no clear reasoning behind what is happening and we have had a really good look.' Said it seemed a combination of players with injury histories and the program. Cerra has missed games in four stints since R19 last year.…

How about Caleb Windsor’s goal. Takes a little mini step to balance then actually seems to deliberately chip the ball over his Carlton opponent to ensure it’s not touched. Maybe dumb luck but maybe a stroke of genius Fox Footy

The AFL hasn’t fined players for staging this year. Hard to fine Kemp when other players haven’t been cited for that type of incident. It has to be “excessive exaggeration” and affect an umpire’s decision making.

New umpires boss Stephen McBurney spoke today on the challenges of umpiring in this era when players try so hard to win free kicks. That Van Rooyen tackle was perfect but how does the umpire know when Kemp pitched forward so he could win the free kick? Fox Footy
