Round 1 - Richmond vs. Carlton

[adelaide_40]

Attrocious by richmond last night, Tackling was non exsistant, turnovers in the defence, Innacuracy. A shining light was raines B.O.G. for richmond IMO followed by foley, Richo tried hard but there were to many passengars for them to win.


Carlton played well mitch robinson had a great debut, kreuzer was good in the ruck and around the ground. and It was interesting to see them kick more than 10 goals without fev kicking most of them. I thought Wiggins was good as well.

 

[adelaide_40]

Forgot to add for richmond good game by morton and riewoldt looked alright to

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Eddie Betts is rubbish, Garlett will get killed.

Lol, 5 to Eddie. Garlett did pretty well on debut.

 

[JuddyBuddy]

For all you Carlton idiots that think you will win this easy think again as it wont happen. You would be lucky to win let alone by alot. But i guess all Carlton fans must be idiots its just normal. Tigers by afew goals.

Come again?

 

[JuddyBuddy]

but our backline is more capable and settled then the blues.

Capable of what? conceding a massive score?

 

[TigerAntho]

Go the blues, great performance, what was it that kevin sheedy said? something about richmond being able to win the flag this year.....i think essendon got rid of him at the right time he starting to get delusional.

Richmond battling for the wooden spoon this year, they have gotten nowhere in the last 5 years, there skills are still pathetic.

Carlton looking good, in a few years they will win a granny

lmfao..a geelong idiot...how refreshing

 

[TigerAntho]

pretty much mate..our backline showed it was shaky..dropped marks...pathetic!

that said I am prepared to give TW up till round 11 to turn things around.

 

[Black Ball]

Richmond has too many players who are dumb and who make too many errors both forced and unforced. An obvious example is Simmonds, how on earth does he get a game and as for Tambling what a lazy over rated non event is he?

 

[Gibbo_88]

Was anyone put on report last night?

If Simmonds is Richmond's best ruckmen who is the next two? Are they any good?
Sorry don't really follow Richmond just thought the ruck was shocking last night for them.

Yeah, Kade Simpson was put in the book for head high contact in the first quarter. He tried to pull out, I think he'll get off.

 

[DamoESP]

I think Simpson was put on report for a head high bump on a tiger, but from the reply's didnt look like there was anything in it, and he tried to pull out. Dont think he will get anything for it.

The crucial moment in the whole game, was when Simmonds drop that mark early in the first 1/4, and then Richo picked it up, and Fev picked up Richo and slammed him head first into the turf in a truly brutal tackle. Ball spilt free and Waite goaled. After that I knew we would win. Richmond simply don't have the list talent to get anywhere near this talented young Blues side.

 

[Richo is God]

Lol, 5 to Eddie. Garlett did pretty well on debut.

Wow, one good game in his career.

 

[parrot]

Wow, one good game in his career.

So where do the Tiges go from here? You were thrashed by a well below full strength Carlton side first up who were playing 4 first-gamers. I just can't see the Tiges finishing outside the bottom 4 in 2009.

Everything went wrong for us last night. I dont know how anyone could be that bad in round 1. Our skills were shit house.

 

[markthepark]

LOL

Fevola kicked 2.1 or thereabouts.

So who the f*ck scored the other 138 points LOL

richmond scored 100 points with stupid turnovers for carlton.
thats the stat there.

 

[Ted38]

Wow, one good game in his career.

You would have to be kidding he is a regular contributor and a great team player and guess what? He'd piss in a game for your lot and they would be better off for it.
Good old Richmond, build up the supporters hopes and then find new ways to let them down. Their skill level was very substandard which led to an error rate that is unacceptable for an AFL side.

 

[Zarrix]

I didn't think Carlton were overly impressive in their skills either tbh, but richmond were absolutely atrocious. Their clanger rate must of been extraordinarily high. Carlton fans shouldn't feel too secure, because a local reserves team would of given Richmond a run for their money last night.

he didnt pick richo up. he used richos momentum and pretty much pushed him in the back.

mate we had a bad game, our kicking was woeful. i would not be suprised if carlton got smashed this week, because they thought they did great guns and can beat any team.

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Haven't you blokes given Terry Tan long enough? I'm not stirring, but surely he's had more then enough time to prove his worth?

Id be suprised if your mob got within 100 points next week....Good old nithmond...Like the tigers of old all right!

If they dont make the finals this year he should go.

If any reserves side had played Richmond, they would've been annihilated by the tune of 100+ points.

you talk it up while your winning but will you still when you lose or we beat you.

 

[parrot]

Fev grinding Richo into the MCG turf early in the first quarter....

Richo will think twice about chasing a cheap stat in Fev's territory in the future.
