Game Day Round 3 2021: Richmond vs Sydney MCG 1:45pm

[NaturalDisaster]

People lets not turn on eachother

 

[Tiger Toffee]

Play like shit and lose in April vs play like shit and lose in September.

Not a hard decision to make if you had to make one.

 

[Tony Harrison]

New rules require more run so we play egg and caddy

 

[Muddiemoose]

if this carries on I'll need a rope.

Leave enough to me

 

[beema limapep]

Egg

yes him too

 

[OhDustinMartin]

for christ sake if this board manages to successfully blame a near 10-goal schlacking on the umpires i will....actually not be surprised. it's nonsensical and immature. get over yourselves. every year we've won the flag, we've had one or two smashings. we were supposedly done in round three last year, and if you missed out on what happened, we won the flag. flipping relax. yes there's been shockers, as there are every week. the umps have been bad, so have we. let's perhaps cover why we picked eggmolesse-smith?

 

[Genghis Tron]

9 goals and we pinch this. We've been playing possum this whole time.

I'd rather we just head back to Punt rd for some R&R. Recovery and Reamings.

 

[HTT]

Umps have been genuinely disgraceful.

I could see a blatant high tackle on Caddy in the pocket from 60 meters away when the ump has the same angle only 4 meters away.
Frees aren't going both ways

Feels like every time they miss one for us, they pay the same thing to them in the same play. And it leads to a goal. Comical.

 

[DustinsGuns]

Egg was delisted and redrafted. What more evidence do we need that picking the final guy on the list over someone like Ross was a good idea?

At least it's only April and not August. Plenty of lessons to learn and even good teams lose once or twice a month.

You'd imagine this is his last game at this level.

I'm just worried that he was seen as the next best option.

 

[Lsta062]

I got called in to work & just saw the scores ... WTF is going on?!?

Exactly what the scores indicate. We’re getting pillaged and we’re not playing like we usually do at all

 

[VB_longneck]

other teams are peaking now and are 2 months ahead

we will peak at the right time again

 

[jc12]

A lot of work has to be done here. If we think it will happen rest of the year and just peak at the right time forget about it. Remind these guys how much it hurt when we got smashed 2018. We need to get to ****ing work asap

 

[Grockadoc]

This happens almost every year. There are players from our side that win the Premiership and then get comfortable at the beginning of the next year. I want to see what Will Martyn can do.

Also, don’t think we can play Caddy and Aarts anymore based on what I have seen last year and this year. Aarts is clever around the goal, but messes up too much in my opinion.

Hence why I was an advocate of Higgins playing instead of Aarts. Just as clever but had way more upside. Higgins dropped after poor performances, but Aarts got a run.

 

[Genghis Tron]

but let's perhaps cover why we picked eggmolesse-smith?

I've backed every decision this club has made for some time.

this decision actually annoys me.

 

[k31th]

that was a shocking turnover by Baker... just didn't see Papley at all and gave it straight to him

 

[DustinsGuns]

That was mint Baker. Keep the Hollywood look aways to yourself, dickhead.

 

[Cevap_Roll]

The umpire bashing a getting old: no way known they have impacted the 4 points.

We have been bad no doubt.
But....
5 free kicks inside their 50.
Dropped Mark be Heeney in their 50 but paid a mark.
50m pentaly in their 50.
2 x 50m penalties around the ground.

Also time to stop playing musical chairs with some of our players.
If someone gets injured just replace them with a kid that plays the same position.

 

[Rubber Hips]

Baker baker baker

 

[Tigez 4 Life]

Baker should be dropped for that alone

 

[Drunken Wookie]

10 goals and we pinch this.

 

[caddyshack]

Baker has been poor this year.
Needs a spell.

 

[NaturalDisaster]

Christ that was bad

 

[dderpppp]

It has to be said Baker has been pretty bad this year..very fumbly

 

[Swanny69]

Weird-ass 32 degree April afternoon ... weather gastro...

 

[OhhDeledio]

the **** is lyon talking about baker ball watching? he had the ball clown
