NAB Cup - Round 1: Richmond V Fremantle

[sante]

No Thomson is disappointing.

 

[RichosGuns]

Would have like to see Thommo playing with no Johnson or Coughlan. Just feel against Palmer, Haselby, Sandilands and Crowely, we needed another inside mid to help out Foley and Tuck.

Great to see Postie, Nahas and Hislop get their first go in the yellow and black though

"ADAM Thomson will have to wait at least another fortnight to play his first game in Richmond colours after being dropped from today's side to face Fremantle at Subiaco Oval."

"Jarrad Oakley-Nicholls and Jake King were the other players to be rested, while rookie Robin Nahas was a late replacement in the squad for Will Thursfield."

"Richmond has named Nahas, Dean Polo, Mitch Morton, Jay Schulz, Richard Tambling and Angus Graham on the bench with Jayden Post and Andrew Collins the nominated substitutes."

 

[Rayzorwire]

Team on the telecast is the same as RT and Banzy have outlined.

Updates to follow for those who don't have vision.

 

[Rayzorwire]

Dockers first goal after Newman ballsed up the kickout and Raines got caught dropping the ball.

 

[Rancid_Beasties]

Not a great start

 

[Cousin Tiger]

hislop gave the 50 away for slinging soloman down after the free kick against raines

 

[Rancid_Beasties]

SEN keeps saying connors, they are surely mistaking him for collins?

 

[Rayzorwire]

Hislop hits the post after some good work from Foley in traffic.

 

[Rayzorwire]

SEN keeps saying connors, they are surely mistaking him for collins?

Nah RB, Collins is an emergency.

Point to Simmonds, Dockers flooding, we're tackling very hard.

 

[Rayzorwire]

Grover goals, 16-2 so far (Solomon goal was a super goal from a 50m penalty), but score is not really a reflection of the play so far.

 

[Rancid_Beasties]

Nah RB, Collins is an emergency.

Point to Simmonds, Dockers flooding, we're tackling very hard.

So Connors is playing? Or is it someone different altogether?

 

[Rayzorwire]

De Boer kicks a freak snap, 22-2.

 

[Barnzy123]

Look like a bottom 4 team at the moment, very scrappy play.

 

[Rayzorwire]

So Connors is playing? Or is it someone different altogether?

No idea RB, Connors definitely not playing though.

Point to Reiwoldt.

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Oh noes!

Nah, who cares.

 

[krustyman]

oh dear, they are getting a thashing.

 

[Rayzorwire]

Another super goal to Freo - 31-3

 

[Moreaux]

Great Kick from jackson to richo's dadvantage

 

[Rayzorwire]

Beautifully weighted pass from Jackson the bloke with shit skills to Richo...misses from 15m out on a slight angle.

 

[Moreaux]

Great Left foot snap from JR

 

[Rayzorwire]

Goal to Reiwoldt - left foot snap from the boundary after a terrific mark from a Tambling shank.

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Same old same old, not using the centre corridor hence having shots on angles .
Foley and Edwards started well , Raines still struggles in close. !!

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Polo situation sounded exciting on the radio. Good to hear..

 

[Rayzorwire]

Polo has done some excellent contested work so far, but he's playing on nobody.

Great goal to Richo - super goal from outside 50.
