Game Day Round 10, 2020 - Brisbane Lions vs. Richmond

[Johnny Bananas]

Rayner missing a couple of games is going to suck, but at least it gives Cox or Coleman a shot.

 

[TyEdwards27]

McStay wouldn't have done that.

???? We have seen Mcstay do that

 

[Maroon Monsoon]

Absolutely.

Ah Chee has shown signs he can do something.

Witho looks a bit lost tonight.

Swing the changes ,got nothing to lose.

Reckon without needs a bit of space to use his kick but the tigers pressure is taking it away from him. If he can keep from dropping his head it'll be a good learning experience for him

 

[KissKiss]

Seeing the 4 teams playing tomorrow have rested 21 players between them. They clearly realised they need fresh legs.

Fagan has been too stubborn in backing his team in. Now we have run out of legs in the midfield. And been forced to debut too many KPPs at the same time. Probably should have looked to bring them in earlier to get some experience

 

[Mooch]

Never notice a mid field half time Repaint before

That pitch has taken some hammer in the last month!

 

[martinson]

I think we're more than competitive but you can't win games of football if you don't make the most of your opportunities.

They do ,we've butchered ours.

Plus Reiwoldt and Lynch get away with murder from the umps ,if a backman did what they did it'd be a free kick every time.

Rest. Anyone a bit iffy don't bring them back on. I don't care if we have 17 players.

 

[Ozzy_Lion]

What a crock of crap has been put up on this thread.

We're easily competitive with them.

They've been gifted goals ,we've blown opportunities like we have 100 to spare every quarter.

Umpiring is beyond a joke.

We're a bit cooked but I'm more than happy if they win this by 10 because I know we can go with them easily.

Why on earth we don't go long to the square like they do instead of short into the pocket is a question perhaps best asked by our coaches because it's cost us nearly every time.

It’s not the umpiring, need to stick our tackles and kick straight to try work out way back in. They were pretty dominate.

I thought I was in a calm state of mind coming into this game with the ability to put the game into perspective coming off a four day break, and playing a good team and all.

And then Hipwood and Ah Chee thought they'd try their best to give me a f***ING brain aneurysm.

Nearly hit Jason dunstalls dribble kick level of sprays in the that first half.

 

[FFB1]

His job to fix it.

Can’t fix shithouse goal kicking

 

[redblueandgold]

Payne, Skinner and ballenden wont make it. Wouldn't play them again

Agreed.. now time for most of us to eat humble pie.. they are clearly NOT top level players at this stage of their footy careers.

Ah Chee has been one of our best players.

Just getting out worked, tigers have more around the outside of where the ball is in dispute then have players out the back. Paine being out played which I think is causing Harris to try and do to much. Every time they go inside 50 they look like scoring. Our shooting for goal puts to much pressure on the team

I don't know if Payne was being outplayed from the first 10 minutes at all, but Harris was definitely jumping around everywhere trying to do too much too early.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Hate playing work nights.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Rayner was on track to get that “most consecutive games since debuting” record. No more.

 

[Mooch]

I’m surprisingly ok with this. They are a very canny group who can make young players fault and exploit it.

We’ll learn today so we can smash them in the granny.

Very strange to be calm right now.

Getting beat is one thing, we need to reclaim something from the game though. We need to go home with a 2-3 goal loss, not a 6, 7 or 8.

Anyone see Jon Ralph crap on then about 10 of 12 games . Metricon isn’t our home ground you goose .

Dickhead. FFS Richmond don't even call playing at the dome a home game

 

[deklares]

Hows Lynch bullying the smaller players

 

[Hollow Knight]

God Lynch is a detestable specimen.

 

[Maroon Monsoon]

How bad does cams hammy look for those watching at home?.

 

[a mayes ing]

If we had swapped players out sooner e.g. debuted Ballenden, Payne and given more chances to Skinner earlier in the year then they mightn't be as rushed as they are today. They all look incredibly inexperieced (as they should due to only have 0, 1 and 2 games) but is inredibly difficult to play againsta very very good team. We need some mongrel, looking very tame out here

You are spot on.

 

[jackess]

Just pay a free against Lynch and they'll stop

Ridiculous

 

[kylegee28]

**** me. Tom Lynch is a squib.

I thought this should have happened vs Adelaide, some other posters didn't agree however.

Total overreaction.

They're playing their first and second games 2 of them off a 4 day break.

What does anyone expect ?

We'll be fine ,they'll all be good players.

 

[Keays2myBeamas]

100 games of experience in the backline is worth 1 goal saved i reckon. With rich, Lester and Birchall our we’re missing 600.
