Game Day Round 14, 2023: Richmond v St.Kilda

[EddieMurphy]

30 seconds left in the quarter. Of course we were gonna give up a goal

Consistency we gave up a couple in the last few mins of the first.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

Game over we are too stupid to play wet weather footy.

 

[Dard Ball Get]

Ross 9
Steele 10
Byrnes 3
Owens 2

 

[Mowman]

And this is why the club is chasing McKay

 

[my name was taken]

I would blame the rain if I didnt see the turnovers with my own eyes every week.

Missed the first quarter, saw 24 to 1, got home and we were down 10, classic stuff.

Worth watching the first quarter later?

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Why are we surprised. We've seen this shit for 10 years

[Pakenhamsaint]

What that moron who can't kick to save himself?

 

[Barrels]

Ugh. We’re going to shit the bed, aren’t we…

 

[BigPowerForward]

Richmond goal kickers
Howard 3
Bolton 2
Short 2
Cotchin 1

 

[Verdun66]

Right on half time. We’d done well. Then some dumb stuff. Red time goals are killers.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Ugh. We’re going to s**t the bed, aren’t we…

It's St Kilda so yea.

 

[StFly]

Crickets shit the bed too, today can GAGF.

 

[aussierulesrules]

Let’s face it, while our already far-from-great midfield is well short of their best, or not at full strength (eg missing Jones and Clark, with Steele injured) we’re going to be hugely vulnerable against almost any team who really come to play.

It is what it is.

 

[Curunir]

And this is why the club is chasing McKay

He's just as bad as Howard

 

[saintbill]

Steele, Ross, Byrnes & Windhager is just a horrible midfield unfortuantley.

Crouch can't bloody do everything.

 

[Saint Shags]

Might just be about time to actually make a couple of our mids accountable for performance?

Ross and Steele again not doing enough.
Old man Cotchin and Martin have 19 and 18 disposals.

Ross with 9 and Steele with 10. Not good enough by half.

I don't think that's entirely true though if Sinclair and Owens permanently played in the middle

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

Sincs and Owens to the middle need that competitiveness in there

 

[Saintbloke]

The midfield is as bad as it can possibly be. Our captain is getting flogged and shouldn't be playing anyway. Ross and Byrnes are nowhere near it, the half back line is continually kicking to the opposition. Caminiti kicked a goal, but is nowhere near it and should be subbed for Sharman. Higgins and Gresh are putting no defensive pressure on. Poo is doing ok Don't know where we go from here.

 

[Simon Templar]

Who thought it was a good idea that Jobe Watson commentates? He can hardly speak. He's been at it since he retired & he still can't get a fluent sentence out of his mouth. Almost as bad as Alastair Lynch

 

[SteeleSaints]

Dumb football Saints.

The usual shocking turn overs by too many. As the commentators are suggesting they need to play to the conditions. Simply not smart enough to adapt.

We have had some good players but far too many passengers - Steele, Gresham, Owens, Battle, Byrnes, Ross, Woods simply not getting enough of the footy. Some have been struggling for form for sometime but we have nothing in the VFL putting them under pressure.

Tigers are up and about will take a mammoth effort to get back into the game.

 

[cartel]

Six goal defeat coming up. Another mulligan.

 

[Saint Shags]

And this is why the club is chasing McKay

I gotta say that doesn't fill me with confidence.

I'd rather actually develop one of our own. McKay isn't on the park long enough to throw big bucks at.
Would rather take the extra pick that the Gresh move would give us than have it diluted by picking him up. But that's just me.
