Autopsy Roast & Toast v GWS and Changes for Port

[Tigeral]

I was happy today - stupid happy, but happy.

Finally got to see a game live.

We really contended with GWS, who got us on cleanness and maturity.

Some of the kids did well - Green, Banks etc

Midfield worked well in general.

KPFs couldn't take a mark or convert opportunities, unfortunately. But Sampson could actually hold his own in the AFL for he first time. Huge step up.

Pick 1 looks fairly well locked in maybe 2 if we beat North.

Overall, I see a team that has weaknesses, but has he ability to improve fairly quickly if he right players are added. High end skilled mids and KPFs particularly.

few issues, Miller missing some punches, kozi can't kick straight, Ryan can't mark. Minor issues we can fix by ....

I’m glad someone else thought Sampson showed a bit. I think our coaches has stuffed his development up as he used to be a good leading mark and kick in the VFL. This one handed rubbish has to be limited to only when he is no chance

 

[Downtown06]

There’s always chances to kick across goal.
Just don’t sit the ball up so high it takes 10 years to come down and gives the opposition a chance to intercept

Maybe don’t do it as a ruckman though..

Know your limits and go boundary, safest option, but yeah esp being a ruckman

 

[aislegi]

Hahaah if you believe that you've got blinkers on. Yeah he was on the back foot but he couldn't be bothered to compete plus not the only one here to raise it either.

Was too busy giving Nank a spray for the poor kick to compete for it

 

[Groupie_]

remember when we had the rance, arseberry and grimes brick wall in the backline

the best defence of all time

The shit kick by Nank gave him the out he wanted. He was thinking. Awesome, shit kick, **** that one's on you Nank, I'll just stand here with arms out while Ward takes an easy chest mark a few steps away.

 

[The Mighty]

How's Nanks kick across ground to Short. I know it was a shit kick but Short couldn't even be bothered to jump and put his body on the line.

LOL

Summed up our senior players today.

Shorts made a career doing that

Geez I like the cut of Kingsley’s jib. I liked his comment about “fast feet around stoppage”. That’s exactly what we need to increase in the off season. We’ve got the grinders and the gut runners but we desperately need a couple of faster midfielders with elite agility who can use it well. You can see when Bolton goes in there we look so much more damaging. Need more of that. And our forward line needs a lot of work. Is that too much to ask?

I know it’s a tad harsh but I thought steely green was poor. He looks lost and like he hasn’t got any elite qualities and kinda fluked 3 goals. Hopefully I’m wrong but he needs to improve a lot.

Hugo most improved this season.

Finally, after watching the under 18s today I really hope we don’t finish bottom. No advantage at all this year as there’s so many good players with no clear stand outs. Let’s keep making a nuisance of ourselves.

1 guaranteed dropee for next week.....
Enough of this bloke....

Although the midfield was reasonable, some of the I50s weren't clean but agree that forward line was dysfunctional and lacked polish and skill.

The FL didn’t put enough pressure on their HB and they ran the ball out easily giving them easy and efficient forward entries. Outcome a high goal to F50 entries efficiency.

 

[guruisatiger]

Vlaustin is crap

 

[LTT]

I was very vocal about Millers game today, it was an absolute shocker

But TigerImposter ’s boy has also had a fantastic season so far and been an absolute rock down back

Not happy with his game but even the best players have bad ones

What’s important now is how he responds next week and learns from today

Milller was beaten today but I remember seeing a young Hogan kick 4 goals on Rance. So maybe not that surprising. The surprised was that Balta wasn’t moved onto him. All of our defenders were beaten at various times. It was a strange game. Green was good. Banks is so much better on a flank rather than a wing and HRS and Mansell showed real improvement. Kosi looks like he could be a reasonable player in a better forward like. Short and Kmac are list cloggers.

Spot on! As I was watching it, I was thinking “They’ll be talking about this on the Richmond board”.

 

[guruisatiger]

How much did the entire energy of the game change with Greens little purple patch

The same with vlaustin terrible turn over in the last

Couldn't even support Richmond today, ****ing traitor

 

[TigerImposter]

Cut it out. He was no where near competing for that. The kick hung in the air and was well short of him.
He makes a few blues, but the pile on over this is too much.

Short atm is the straw that could break the camel’s back.

 

[Cam Payner]

Vlaustin is crap

Will finish top 3 in the B&F and possibly even win it....mind you all blokes will have to do to poll well this year is play the most games...

 

[Coach_Required]

I think I've had my gif access taken away when I'm using my mobile .... All greyed out.

Another horrendous effort that will no doubt go unpunished by the match committee yet again...

Good points! At every opportunity we have replaced speed with a plodder. Even our “quick” players in Mansell, Campbell and green aren’t particularly fast.

We commited to Hopper and Taranto, now we need to put speed around them as they lack it.

A 75 year old Tiger mate who struggles to walk and her gf who beat cancer turned up today.
Where the heck are you?

Caves Beach Hotel drinking schooners and shooting shit with mates.

shorts effort was ordinary but wards effort was incredible
9 outta 10 players dont take that mark like ward did

 

[aislegi]

Ryans second efforts are non existent, its hard to watch at times.

Not only that, at his size, I’d like to see him knock a few more blokes over with his first efforts

I met him for work a few months ago and he seemed nuts. He’s extraordinarily prolific and energetic for an old man. My hat goes off to him.

Unfortunately the poor old camel had its back broken months ago and is rotting in the ground

At that point of the game we had to try something. Try and take the game on through the flanks and the middle.

Not just kick long down the line and hope for the best

 

[aislegi]

Only let them have 36 i50s and conceded 108 points. WTF is that?

Inside fifties is a rubbish stat. Key, as others have said, was how easily they ran it out of defence.
