First Crack showed Rankine going into the middle and stood on Cripps. Crows won the ball, Rankine pushed forward and got away from our captain who was right on his tail but too slow to stop him.

Next time Hewett picked him up but then just let Rankine go by himself inside 50.

Sure, its not great and will be harshly judged, but do we actually have anyone that could catch him?

I saw stuff live that made me think the game review will be hard to watch for some players this week.

They kicked 16-4 which is crazy accurate.
The 2 weeks prior they scored 8-15 and 4-10.

Yes, but as other posters have mentioned, they had nine shots from directly in front and within 40 metres.  That accounted for eight goals and one behind.  The ease with which they hit targets and were paid frees directly in front or on slight angles is damning.

At the other end, we scored two behinds from shots taken within 10 metres 🙄

I'm not sure whether there's a transcript of the Judge's decision online yet, but he addresses all these issues.
(State of inebriation, activity at the bar, the entrance to Parliament). He goes into specific detail as to why he gives weight to some aspects and little weight to others.

It is a remarkable exercise in critical thinking, analysis, and a logical progression from evidence to conclusions … with a bit of humour thrown in.

I particularly appreciated his efforts to explain the points of proof required to reach his findings.
