Game Day Round 9: Richmond v West Coast @ Optus Stadium 2:40pm AWST

[Tigers_fan24]

Need to work on our set shots. Been a trend now and has buried us today

 

[Tigez 4 Life]

Lost another 3 then got flogged by saints?

Cheeky

 

[TigerTime99]

Where we've fallen down is the center they've killed us, pressure, sling shot footy from defense and our second tier players have been horrible and haven't stood up.
Some would say they've played like us

 

[db26]

We don't need another tall in the side my arse!
This is a prime example of why we should go hard for Lynch.
Also to not play a second ruck today is F&^^% crazy stupid.
Lost it at selection

Agree with this need another string to our game plan not so predictable.I would have played Soldo and Nank and Menadue.

Why does george always go for the snap when he can run stright in and kick a drop punt

 

[Tony Harrison]

Then won the flag.

Oh that, yeh forgot.

 

[OhhDeledio]

Holy ****ing shit why would you go for that kick? **** me

 

[shaky]

Yep. So many players lose their cool when we get dominated. This is how you beat us, move the ball quick and put the pressure on. Find out a few of our role players.

 

[tugga]

Castagna and Jack with the run around kick 30 metres out.
**** off with that shit.

 

[SunshineBoy]

And that says more

 

[Daffytrain]

Butters and George have gotten too much strut and big headness about them after last year now. Not doing the simple things right at all now. Need a rest in the 2's. Stengle surely in maybe Turbo comes back or give someone else a crack.

Few blokes needed this reality check that the competition is coming for us and you cant just take it easy.

You gotta get that out of ya game jack, drop punt should be ya bread and buter from there

 

[Rubber Hips]

Do we play these campaigners again before finals?

 

[Shazza_]

Not fussed.
I’m glad in one way that a lot of our fans will get a reality check . We are a really good team but we aren’t this ridiculously dominant juggernaut that some portray us as. We are going to lose more games going forward don’t worry about that, but you’ve just got to be in good shape at the right time.
Makes me laugh the focus on form around round 8, next minute Essendon should feel confident of giving us a good run.

question is who is gonna beat us on the G at the pointy end

certainly not these blokes

 

[tigs2010]

Just handed Eagles golden ticket to the big dance.

Must finish top 2 so we get there too.

 

[Drofder]

Not gonna panic but a couple of blokes could be replaced and a couple need a quiet word in the ear especially one or two blokes playing like millionaires on the forward line when they get an opportunity to score.

 

[tigers47]

2 players kicking across the body when dont have to FMD

 

[Tony Harrison]

I want our rioli back

 

[SA Tiger RVZ]

Jacks shot them epitomises why we are getting smashed today. Not taking a percentage drop punt instead going around the corner. It’s been coming for weeks with this show pony shit.

 

[Rubber Hips]

That hit on Cotch's head...no free?

 

[Lsta062]

No one will beat them there in a PF lol

That is why our loss today is not a good loss. We now have to rely on West Coast or Adelaide not pushing us out of the top 2 if we want to make the GF because we haven't proven that we can beat them interstate. Expected better than this and am disappointed.

 

[HTT]

I do. If we get a PF against Adelaide or West Coast interstate, then I have barely any confidence that we will win it.

I’d back us. HGA is way overplayed, didn’t stop us from completely dominating the 2nd quarter. Can put this one down to simply being beaten by a better team on the night.
We don’t lose to teams twice anymore.

prob been told its ok to do that. confidence would be shot too

when players change numbers to those that are lower its a worry

 

[Tigez 4 Life]

Another throw by Nat

 

[BKM78]

These set shot snaps can ggf'd. Fair dinkum.

WC at WC is like Adelaide at Adelaide last year.
Will be nearly impossible to beat them there.
We need this smack in the face and it wont be the only time it happens this year.
