Notable Events

* In Round 5, Fremantle and St Kilda's game ended in controversy after the final siren was not heard by umpires, with the extra time allowing St Kilda to level the scores - the result was changed by the AFL commission later in the week on the basis that the timekeeper had failed to perform his duties.
* Richmond suffered three 100-point losses in season 2006, against the Western Bulldogs in round 1 (115 points), the Sydney Swans in round 7 (118 points) and then St Kilda in round 17 (103 points).
* A struggling Richmond team defeated league-leaders Adelaide in round 8 in an often-discussed game. To counteract Adelaide's strong flood, Richmond slowly built up a lead by patiently controlling the football without ever kicking to a contest, a move described as both boring and brilliant. In the final quarter, Adelaide were forced to switch to man-on-man tactics, almost erasing the deficit, but falling three points short. In executing this plan, Richmond took 181 marks, which is the highest amount ever (recorded since 1987).
* In round 8, Brendan Fevola became the first player to kick all of his team's goals in a game since Mark Arceri in 1991. Of Carlton's 4.10(34), Fevola contributed 4.5(29), Simon Wiggins scored two behinds, and three behinds were rushed.
