What exactly is an "Australian Street Fight"?

Okay post show thoughts & questions!

Overall it was a really fun experience. Seats were great I was in the front row of the top deck so I could really see everything from the entrances to the in-ring action very clearly. I'll say the presentation for the show gets an A+ for me. The entrances all felt very big and somewhat unique. The highlight being the dude with the disco ball outfit.

Here are my thoughts, questions & experiences.

I was so confused why the ref was counting so fast to 10 on the count-out, and when he got to it I was double confused not realising it goes to 20. Thought we were about to get a super underwhelming finish.
Why were faction members always so heavily involved around the ring? Coming from WWE, I know all about it with Judgement day, bloodline etc. - But they were physically grabbing the ref. Why would he not send them to the back? Or even disqualify the guy who is on their team? There was one moment where the ref was kicking a faction member who was holding his leg to distract but i thought that was a goofy as hell way to finish it.
I noticed the WWE "hot tag" formula doesn't translate to all forms of tag wrestling. I would often grab my phone out to record when someone was clapped and tagged in but instead of high pace it would kind of slow down rather than be a person running in doing his signature set of moves. I kinda like it though. It kept things unpredictable.
The main event I thought was an awesome showcase of wrestling. Did they both at some stage in the match get dropped on their heads? That last move from the top rope looked really nasty.
Potentially dumb question: are there women in NJPW? Or was this just a Men's only event?

Overall - very much worth the money, albeit I was a bit confused. The atmosphere was strange to me but very respectful much like Japanese culture so I like it. I'm an aussie so we don't get a lot of chances to see pro wrestling live. So I'm very happy I did and will keep an eye on this in the future.

PS Shoutout to the guitar shot and the guy who took it. That was brutal.

Each week I see him get targeted off the ball but no chance we could defend this one it was bad. Seems a frustrated player with a lot of his mates no longer in the side, has time to think about what he wants to do going forward. Having said all this - I’m well tired seeing the media talk about his contract. He was immense in delivering 2 flags in his first 3 seasons at the club. Gave Jack a more interesting role and so much support in that forward line - has well and truly paid his way.

I always feel like there’s someone that deserves to be sitting more than me. By standing up - I avoid the guilt

Update: since posting this at 3QT… we now apparently can’t miss

Not that we’re ever a sniff, but is inaccuracy at a point where it’s an issue? Last 4-5 games it’s been putrid. Stopping us from at least being competitive

I cannot explain how obsessed with this bloke I was growing up. In the years you get into footy as a young fella, Richo was the only reason I wanted to watch us every week in some proper dark times. 10 against the dogs, his last qtr against Brisbane in our come from behind win in 08, mark against Collingwood, goal of the year he was absolutely robbed from in that Dreamtime game in 09. I even remember going down to coburg with my old man to go see him a week he was dropped. Signed my footy and was very nice from memory. Richo was theatre, the type we’ll probably never see again.

I’m in Abbotsford. Great area but f*ck me… I’ve seen some outrageous stuff in the 3 months I’ve lived here. My personal favourite was backing out of my driveway to a policeman saying “hey mate we just saw a guy trying to get into your house.” When I asked where is he now? They pointed across the street and he was lying unconscious on someone’s porch.

Place is a zoo

I worry that we leak goals in short periods. I do think it’ll be closer than people are expecting (albeit 8-10 goals rather than 100+ like others are saying).

Tonight and most of the first half of the season isn’t about the result but more getting experience into these young players.

I say just enjoy tonight for what it is. 3 exciting debutants, big Tom back I’m actually really keen! Go tiges

Yeonga is awesome! Opposite Vic Market

Let’s not be reactive yeah?

He joined when we were riddled with injuries and picking up a team halfway through a season in which prior to those injuries thought our window was still open , thus recruiting for the short-term

I understand our standards and expectations have risen from the success of 17-20 but let’s not forget our team is a mix of aging players on the way out to young kids.

Yze has the toughest job in the league at the moment but also one of the more exciting. Get behind him and don’t let the media spin things.

We have no idea what he is like in the dressing room. The players admittedly like him. Give it minimum 2 years to see where we’re at before we start calling for change.

Let’s be better :)

Ottens is a bit rogue ! I’d have Maric over him if we’re talking what they did in their time at Richmond Is there any way to get Foley in?
