"Controversy"

West Coasts win has come under controversy after Rioli illegally help Maynard from the contest. Source: https://au.news.yahoo.com/controversial-moment-overshadowed-eagles-win-072734682.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.188.40.60 (talk) 08:31, 29 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This source does not state that Rioli's action was illegal, just controversial. Therefore I don't think this section is required until an official source rules the action was illegal. LeighM26 (talk) 11:01, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In The News

Can everyone please read the note right at the top of this page. This article needs better sourcing so it can appear on Wikipedia's Main page. HiLo48 (talk) 11:05, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well done to everyone who helped. We did it. And it's bloody difficult to get Australian items past the all-American (and a little bit of British) bias at places like In The News. It's a shame we had no success with Bob Jane. HiLo48 (talk) 22:49, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Commentators. Why?

What's the point of listing that bevy of commentators in the Infobox? It's unsourced. There are probably more commentators named in the article than players. HiLo48 (talk) 03:19, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the commentators are more famous than the players. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:14, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, someone else agreed with me. It's down to three of them now, and sourced. HiLo48 (talk) 22:50, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rejoice in the experience. I was unable to find a source myself, although I knew it to be correct. I think it sets a nice precedent of only listing the hosts. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 02:17, 3 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
