Plenty of Quality Plays here in this compilation on top of all of the quality individual GIF's above good team play today when it counted.



If anybody would like to see the rest of the GIFs (yes, there's always more), for the Eagles game, they're from this post -> https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/richmond-gifs.1047662/post-79095091

 

[Swanks McSwankserton]

I been criticising Bolton the last few weeks, so really wanted to say he was awesome today, especially his link up passing. And that mark he took with his last touch was sublime.

 

[Tigerbob]

Cotchin in for Clarke.

Banks in for Cumberland.

 

[Maurice Mitchell]

Charles is Charles' cousin.

Would be missing his good mate Jimmy Saville

Sort of like Chris Scott , good at giving it but no so good at taking it !

Thought I was driving behind him the other day. Licence plate said SODIUM.

Wasn’t him.

 

[Maurice Mitchell]

dimma has destroyed the boy

He definitely hasn’t helped

Dimma was asked about him before the game and he said he was one of his favourites.
Got a few things to work on etc etc.

 

[Triggering Tiger]

Cotchin in for Clarke.

Banks in for Cumberland.

I'd rather have bauer in for clarke because we now know he bauer can play both ends and it gives cotch another weeks rest for his aging warrior body which i'm sure he'd appreciate.

 

[tropicaltiger]

Broad can take Darling out of his back pocket now.

Has there ever been a more 'looks like Tarzan plays like Jane' GOAT than Darling???

 

[TigerMoz1973]

She's about as welcome as a fart in a spacesuit.

I'd put her more in the Turd on a pillow level myself but yeah.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

I wonder which Richmond player this week will purposely run into the outstretched elbow of "The greatest Guy in AFL"

Hang on there, I remember somebody else being "the Greatest Guy.....

 

[smasha]

I forgot to put Dan Rioli in the votes.
Would he be leading the JD Medal atm?

Been ultra reliable all year.

Round 8: Hardwick post-match

Damien Hardwick speaks to the media following the Round 8 match against West Coast.

Dimma had two cracks at Kane Cornes in the presser today! Nice stuff.

It was pretty light hearted stuff from Dimma.

 

[Tigerbob68]

It was pretty light hearted stuff from Dimma.

Yeah! Premiership team-mates. They would know each other pretty well and I don't think either would be bothered by a bit of banter.

- 22 disposals, 82% efficiency & 5 score involvements. Pretty handy game considering how lacking we’ve been on the wings lately. I liked his game.

 

[Wooden Robot]

Got a sneaky feeling Chris Scott will rest Stewart.

He's not dumb like us and doesn't think he can carry four or five blokes a season by resting them.

 

[TigerImposter]

Great to get a win and actually hear the song being belted out after a game by the lads.
I think the Taranto and Hopper argument that we gave up first round picks for them is well and truly dead now. With our recent first round selections I doubt we would’ve picked two ready made A graders like them and they may not even exist . Prestia is still the smallest giant I’ve ever seen on a footy field and by God does he make us grow an extra leg. Great to also see the talented enigma in Bolton light up and put up a show for his old WA fans . Maybe we will get us our first two rounders back for Mr Magic . Dusty was back to a 70% version of himself and looked better playing his old role.
Flossy returning to form was a big plus and with Broad were the standouts down back. Pickett was good with Rioli and Short.
My kids report
Mansell is a potato and needs vfl time and then delisted
HRS good link player with run , but needs an injection of testosterone
Clarke I’m happy with his progress and is showing similar potential as Sheds around the same age. I think with his leg speed and skill set he could develop into a player.
Cumberland is way out of sorts and down in confidence. Needs to mature in mental toughness as he has the the class to be a natural forward.
Ryan is a big talent and could be anything. Took four marks and is starting to hold his ground better in ruck contests.
Miller is strong and tough, but with a very limited skill set and I think is probably better off as a defender. I’m giving him a little neck room as he’s playing a role which is not suited to his natural game.
Ross down on last Year, but looking better and I think will get better with more games.


On the game plan with no Lynch we’re still messing around with it and delivery into FL is awful. Too much handball and often delivered poorly. Guys aren’t accelerating on the receive and look like they’re in slow motion. Overall our skills are below standards and I’m still concerned about our link work in the BL whether it can handle the pressure of a top eight team.

 

[Hoos]

Our skills are terrible, our 1989 side would have rolled this lot.

That side would not beat anyone. This current side at it's worst would still comfortably beat our side from 1989 (or '86-'87, '92-'93 and 2006-10).

 

[Hoos]

Jack Ross - 22 disposals, 82% efficiency & 5 score involvements. Pretty handy game considering how lacking we’ve been on the wings lately. I liked his game.

Me too. Hopefully he'll be allowed to stay in the side now as he does get better the more games he plays. Won a lot of hard balls and rarely wasted it. Really good game.

 

[Hoos]

Very pleased to see a return to form for Vlastuin and also Grimes.

Overall it was just an okay win, but considering how bad we have been I'll take it. Even if it just brings a little confidence back it will help enormously.

If Cotchin is the only in next week I think it's pretty safe to say its will be Cumberland who makes way. Maybe he should be the sub? Come on halfway through the third quarter for Cotch and kick 3 or 4.

I'm guessing Soldo won't be back as Dimma didn't sound to optimistic in the presser. If Young comes back as well in who gets dropped? Miller? Anyone else and we're veering dangerously close to going in too tall.

 

[cairo tiger]

Unfortunately Miller has to play in the tom stewart elbow cup game

 

[Wooden Robot]

That side would not beat anyone. This current side at it's worst would still comfortably beat our side from 1989 (or '86-'87, '92-'93 and 2006-10).

Big call given we beat Footscray, North melbourne, West Coast, Brisbane and Sydney that year.
A lot to like about Hoggy, Honybun, the Flea, Lambo, Trent Nicholls, Brendan 'Bowser' Bower and Michael 'Pickers' Pickering.
Come to think of it, Pickering could teach Cumbo a thing or two about work rate and maximising obvious potential.

 

[Groupie_]

we will be in the top 4 by round 19

 

[Muddiemoose]

Was just watching the highlights and noticed that although Graham didn’t get a massive amount of the ball he was instrumental in the forward line

Was involved in Clarke’s with a 1%er and a couple of Prestias goals by setting them up

Type of stuff we have missed in our forward line a lot this year and the type of stuff that was Lamberts bread and butter but not rewarded on the stat sheet

 

[bc27]

Starting midfield was Bolton Taranto & Hopper.
27 clearances, 26 score involvements, 17 inside 50’s, 16 tackles and 6 goals between them.

It’s not going to be that level of production every week but they need to build on that game. Because that’s our best three mids.
