I reckon Riewoldt's right.
He should be pinged every time for his actions....so now he's drawn attention to it, here's hoping
So accepting that the AFL want to set a standard of respect, what's the solution.
If you don't agree with the current practice (which I agree is a little dodgy given the inconsistency of interpretation and application) what do you guys see as the answer.
