Re: Back on the bike!

We played. We lost. We move on, get back on the bike and make sure we're all there next Sunday for Roo's final home game! +1 Sorry, Jiggster & Maj, but what was dished up today was utter rubbish. I'll make my own mind up about attending a meaningless event next week. Loyalty's all fine and good...

Re: Votes v Dees

Billings was poor. At least three contests near where i was watching where he went at half pace and Melbourne got the ball instead. He was flat as a tac. Dished the ball of instead of take responsibility and he was wasteful, especially in front of goal. Carlisle Roberton Longer Dunstan Sinclair Ind...

Re: Season-defining match against the Dees coming up

Depends on how quickly the boys recover. That was a bruising game today. Our depth isn't great. Hopefully if Gilbo returns he can replace Roo. The post game consensus among the tribe was we need to do a few things differently, starting with the side we pick. We can't go in with the same front end s...

Re: Paddy McFatty?

A Richmond supporting mate of mine reckons one of McCartin's problems is he is carrying a little too much excess weight for an AFL player of the modern game. Said he looked to be more in proportion with a full forward playing back in the 90s. In all fairness, our number 1 draft pick does look a lit...

Re: Mr. Richardson

Wow, sack another contracted coach? I'm sure that will do us a world of good in securing a quality replacement. The process was to build talent and pick off a couple of free agenets in 2018/2019. Richo should see out his contract and his part of the process. Like many have written on this thread, c...

We did it again! Lost by our exact average losing margin of 42 points. Only Brisbane has a worse losing margin average. The blows to our percentage has just about wrecked our finals chances.

Re: Longer!!!!!

I don't recall the exact numbers, but even Richardson made the point Longer gave his mids '1st hands' opportunity advantage by a very wide margin, but the mids butchered the opportunities presented.

And, I emphasise, a 'very wide margin'.

Billy ain't the problem, either.

Re: Richo v horse

One problem is we can't take a mark in the forwards ( last week as well) and we seem disorganized in the forwards. Swapping Bruce for Paddy had no positive improvement. It ain't just the forwards who are disorganised. Wouldn't matter much if they were, given how few times the rest of the side was o...
