Rnd 1 Matchday Thread - Richmond Vs Carlton MCG 7:45pm

[Selective Retention]

Boundary umpire is a carlton supporter.

 

[Quivorir]

This boundry ump should be sacked.

 

[dumb]

death by a thousand cuts... most carlton fans would be happy with that after some sloppy work served up tonight

 

[BallaratBulldog]

78k at the ground, not going to fade just because of live tv.

 

[Quivorir]

78285 people. Tomorrow should beat the record I think.

 

[theyellowsash]

Whateley comapred it to Franklin as well.

cause franklin is the first guy to kick it from the boundary...

 

[eddie betts]

If only Waite could hold a mark...

 

[beez]

Great crowd

 

[Taco]

Serious question, are these two teams playing for the Shit Haircut Cup?

 

[Quivorir]

Holy shit this boundry ump is terrible. The players ****ing stopped and he still doesnt call it :S

Proly out on the full tbh.

Haha I'll pay that.

Gibbs must have lost a bet and Maric is just wrong

You could see in the background he was about to raise his arms to signal out of bounds and then decided 'nah, **** it'

There's been some horrendous "styles", hasn't there?

lol'd.

Murphy was never going to miss that. Class player.

And one more, fat lady.....

 

[DamoESP]

Heard there is about to be a power outage in Melbourne, all those microwaves being fired up at once.......

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

Carlton home now

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

Do Richmond fans actually think they are going to be playing finals with this team. No chance in hell. They have 3 absolute stars and then just alot of rubbish. Their backline, and especially tall defenders, are pretty ordinary. You don't play finals when you have a rubbish defense.

Or he looked at it, saw that the entire ball wasn't out of bounds and made the correct decision.

Think you will find it was more the media tooting that horn than the supporters.

They had all the hype during the week too. It is however, only one game but looks as if not much has changed.

You serious? What about the previous two then?

It was actually the right call, ball never went completely out. Play on.



Riewoldt kicking his standard few late in the game. Junk time king.

He misses the sitter lol

 

[Jentleman Geff]

Carlton have stunk in patches tonight and will still finish up thumping Richmond.

Why does this game get this fixture? Even the close games are ridiculously one sided.

 

[THRILLHO]

There's been some horrendous "styles", hasn't there?

Reiwoldt's is horrendous. One half of his head shaved. At least Maric's hasn't been expensively styled.

What does everyone make of Deledio's game? First game after signing the massive contract. Personally, I think he simply hasn't exerted himself on the contest enough. Very disappointing.

One of the biggest 40 point thumpings I can remember. Richmond have absolutely stunk outside of that third quarter charge.
