Review Dees v Richmond and the Ghost of Tommy - the Good, the Bad & the Fugly

[Gysberts2Bate]

Debatable because a fit and not decapitated Trengove is seriously good, it's just we haven't seen him for a while.

Trengove is going to come back in a big big way next year.

In a way I reckon the season ending injuries to Trengove/Hogan might actually encourage Roosy to stick around longer. Just the rapport he's developed with the squad tells me he'll want to be working with those two as well, getting time into them and helping them make the most of themselves (especially JT) like he's done with Pedo, etc.

I'm not convinced Hogan is season over.

I'm not convinced Hogan is season over.

If nothing else goes wrong he'll start playing reserves with about 7-8 games to go. He could get 4 or 5 games in.

Great to see Toump back. He's a valuable link man who can kick. Huge help getting it forward.

Our final five games of the season are against Brisbane, Hawthorn, GWS, WCE and North. Would definitely be a good run to give him a taste of what to look forward to next year. I'd only want him in if he was at absolute full fitness though.

 

[Theseventhhamster]

He's got a massive tank for big. He can come in to the side in the kind of condition Dawes was in when he started this season.

The Good: Winning today's game
The Bad: Predicting A win ahead of time
The Ugly: Losing the game and feeling sad for another week

.... Nooooot!

 

[stretcharmstrong]

Pedo's turnaround has been as good as Ive seen at the footy club, Cult hate into cult status in the space of 9 games

7 games. He was pretty shit rounds 1 and 2 if I recall cleverly.

I am loving him at the moment. Hope he keeps it up.

I either watched a different game or some of you blokes aren't aware what number Grimes wears. I missed the first Richmond goal, is that what all the herp a derp is about? Great defensive game from our captain.

He made some monumental errors. Rewatch the game and you'll pick em up. Overall, an acceptable game, but not a captains game.

He worked hard without reward in the first 2 games as a lone forward

 

[stretcharmstrong]

You're sick, get help.

I've read that he cost us two goals so I figured someone thinks he's M Jones.

Good:
- Cameron mother******* Pedersen. Clunk.
- Gawn/Jamar. Best I've seen the ruck combo work in years. Maxy will only get better.
- Viney/Vince/Cross/Jones/Tyson. Finally we have a midfield.
- Dunn. Did Vickery touch it?
- N Jones' last quarter. Has to be looking at AA consideration.
- Watts. Needed someone to stand up and get us over the line, worked his arse off. A better set shot anywhere?
- Polish of Tyson. Love the fact we have a couple of left footers around now too.
- Gametime given to Toumpas/Salem. Much improvement to come there, minutes will stand them in good stead.

Bad/Ugly:
- The Dawes clothesline. Need him around. Hope he only gets 1.
- Tom McDonald with ball in hand. Only thing he needs to work on to be a really good player.
- JKH as sub. Understand why they did it, but let the boy play.

Here's to Terlich playing much better defensively today. particularly overhead. Jamar's hitouts too, he's probably 3 goals better than Spencer.

Sorry to keep singling you out, but Terlichs game today wasn't really above average for him. . Good on you for realizing his value, but he's been doing that shit every week.

The kicking makes me suicidal still.

Nope he's usually in awful defensive positioning. He barely lost a contest today while also giving his usual run.

Yes, needs to work on it. But the other qualities he brings make up for it and then some. Same with McDonald and, to a lesser extent, grimes.

 

[Brock 'n' Roll]

The Good;
-A Win
-Our young midfielders
-Sticking it out to get the win in previous years we would have rolled over.
-The big blokes Jamar, Pedo, Dawes and Gawn.
- Howe

The Bad
-Richmond supporters
-Our kick ins again, every week they cost us goals.

The Ugly
- Jack Grimes and his disposal kills us with turnovers every week.

We 'll agree to disagree. Unless you want to post several dozen marked up screen shots illustrating your point.

I want to kick Fumbles in the nuts, he's really starting to irritate me.

I know he's a great defender but a 5 year old can kick better and has cleaner hands.

 

[ManWithNoName]

(Haven't seen the game yet)

I'm not saying I'm a god. But since I became a member we've won 2 and should've won the other.

So.

What about that bounce?

You're certainly not Paul Roos, no.
