Game Day Round 22: Richmond v Essendon, MCG, Friday 17th August, 7.50pm AEST

[Highly Evolved]

Essington has rocked up.

 

[bombreys]

Had no one to kick to, going for goal was the best option

True, but he shouldn’t have called for the handball either, poor decision from both

 

[vast]

They seems to always have extra numbers at the ball and in the backline. We have extra down back I guess but they will kill us if that continues.

 

[Learntopray]

Forwards being sucked up the field again against Richmond. Might as well play the tape from the past couple of games against Richmond.

How much of it could be a coaching directive to block space.

 

[quotemokc]

So is anyone on Grimes or is he just playing loose?

This has been my biggest concern too

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Credit to them. Their pressure forces rubbish disposal. Myers shit himself and fumbled at one point. You could see he was expecting something that did not happen and ballsed it up. Reminds me of hot potato in the old auskick days when kids just chucked it on their boots.

 

[adsla69k]

Not a bad 1st quarter. Structurally we will tighten up and fix a few things. I expect us to be up at halftime.

 

[Eleven 38]

I thought we played pretty well. A couple of things we could change a bit. But just need to keep backing ourselves in. Going into our shells and its season over.

Yep they have to be better. Same thing happened last game we are matching them around the ball but just turning it over.

 

[srobbo]

A few things.

1. Forwards can’t get sucked up ground. Hold your lines ffs.

2. Stop handballing at your team mates feet.

3. Lower your eyes kicking inside 50

 

[vast]

Being beaten tacticallly again.

 

[Shanghaistu]

hey guys i’m Trying to watch the round 22 game but someone decided to show a replay of the Dreamtime game instead . Ie, Composure going into the forward line non-existent and panic is the tactic we use when going out of our defence

 

[sameolds33]

Suck it Rance!

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

give them some of their own pressure medicine well done tippa

 

[lysp]

Thanks for your service Trav.

And he's back!

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Once again tippungwuti had involvement with the goal

 

[Highly Evolved]

Where is Tommy tapping to?

 

[Barry Roundhouse]

Yeah Travvy

 

[Mercurial89]

Jesus that was a good kick by Houli

 

[84859300]

No campaigner off the back of the square

 

[lysp]

Another dodgy high

 

[vast]

**** off ump. The ducking campaigner everytime

 

[mike14]

I know we don't have a forward line but we could at least pretend to hit up targets

 

[vast]

Franga!!!!
