Game Day Round 19, 2023 : Richmond v Hawthorn, 1:45pm MCG

Wings playing a cracker today!

 

[SA HAWK]

DGB as a forward isn't going to work. Mitchell said he sees him as a defender long term, so play him as one.

Zero touches in a half isn’t great.

 

[Mr Lizard]

good half of football Hawkers! bring it home

 

[cryptor]

Wingard playing a great game. Generating a heap of scoring opportunities for the team.

 

[Sicily]

Noodle getting smashed around the ground - needs to lift

 

[dermott]

All of a sudden our forward entries have been efficient. Wingard on fire as well. A week is a long time in football.

 

[HairyO]

Clear out the F50 and leave The Chad one out for the second half.

We have been waiting 5 years for this….

Playing the "contract year" game of his life !!

We need two KPF to make our forward
line hum, he's just about the best option we have on our list to play that role.

This looks like the Chad the Hawks thought they were gonna go week in week out when he arrived. Good to see

 

[Mitchell Madness]

First time a team has gotten the better of us and played Hollywood footy that we have stood up. Previously when richmond were chipping around and laughing, we'd have sunk into our shells.

Do I think we are in control? No, but it's better than being even or playing catch up

Finn is absolutely BOG - despite the stats. The half back rebounder is vital, and the reason richmond aren't getting a run on is because he's shut down rioli

Also, 33% of turnovers resulting in a score (7.2). Efficient footy is better than quantative footy

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Our midfield is awesome when it's firing

 

[Jason Dunstall]

Hopefully Denver gets dangerous early and Lewis can then get off the chain.

Yea thats not happening unfortunately. DGB unsighted & not even halving those contests. Hopefully he can turn it around in the second half & at least provide a contest

Richmond are Yesterday's Heroes...Hawks need to wrap this up in second half if they take their opportunities.

 

[TassieGrown]

21 point lead is about right, need to snag 5nd half goals and they should be enough.

DGB nil touches how is that possible

The Chad turning back the clock

send Finn to Bolton if Rioli done

Depressedhawksfan is quality on insta

 

[Kuuz]

Might be worth shifting DGB around back or putting Ned on early. He’s tried but zero touches won’t help his confidence

 

[Roddy]

I feel like we've already won. Realistically, the more experienced Tiges' bodies and heads will overrun us here, but I like what I'm seeing very much.

Hate to rain on parades but we need to keep a lid on it re: Wingers. He's pulled games out of his arse like this for us previously, we need to see him produce this brilliance on a regular basis, not once in a blue moon...

 

[tribey]

This looks like the Chad the Hawks thought they were gonna go week in week out when he arrived. Good to see

He still lives in my otherwise cold cold heart

 

[smeltitdeltit]

reeves will go but Soldo had left arm free and right arm was pinned but at the bicep

 

[SSSSSS]

DGB gets into good spots but either isn't demanding the ball enough or his teammates aren't looking for him.

In any case he's giving Lewis a chance and he's beating his man so that's a positive. Lewis plays so much better when Kosi/DGB is in despite their own field performance.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

I hope we leave DGB where he is, let him find his way in the game and see if he can build into it.

Wings playing a cracker today!

Where has this version of Wingard been?

 

[cryptor]

Biggest (and only) half time margin the Tigers have been able to overcome this season was 18 points.

We just need to keep running and applying pressure and we’ll take this.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Where has this version of Wingard been?

He’s had demons to deal with in the form of a lack of confidence in his body.

Getting some touch at Box Hill seems to have done him wonders.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Zero touches in a half isn’t great.

It's terrible. What's the bet he will get subbed this quarter having had no impact on the game and will be down on confidence, resulting in him being dropped. Call me flogstradamus.
