Game Day The Jordan McMahon Trophy - Tigger discombobulation - Round 9, 2020

[fronkalicious]

Tonight’s game is an example of why wallis is only an average forward.

Just doesn’t have the athleticism to compete against the best.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

Should've left it to Gowers, Tim.

 

[Mojorisin]

Haha, Tim be like ‘nah Bill, this is mine’

Different player same result

 

[TheBont]

why does bev keep putting english in the forward line when he cant kick goals for shit?

 

[Doggies_13]

For all those saying free kick Richmond, this is the quarter by quarter breakdown...

We aren’t losing because of frees but the stat is misleading, there have been a few that should of went our way but went their way but at the end of the day it amounts to maybe a 1-2 goal swing we are getting pumped

 

[dogwatch]

Sorry, but the umpiring is not why we’re losing.

We’ve been smashed all over the ground.

Nobody said it’s why we’re losing.

Just making it so much harder to watch.

Neither can the forwards though

 

[Libba39]

Maclean and Lloyd lovers....come on down!

 

[random__hero]

Who else can we debut next Monday?

 

[Piesnchess]

How many pairs of pants has Bruce McAvaney gone through so far?

Hes Deeeeelicious !

 

[Leon]

Thankfully they couldn’t kick straight this quarter.


Someone really needs to make an intervention re: Gowers

 

[doggiesin08]

I’d take Schache over Bruce at the moment

 

[Struggle]

Please recruit some players who can kick the thing through the two big sticks. That's all i want

He isn’t the sort of forward who should be a club’s leading goal kicker, that’s certain.

Fits in well with other dangerous forwards but when we have none he’s not a great front man.

 

[Braybrook Son]

I feel sorry for Macrae. Trying his guts out tonight and he clearly looks stuffed. Should’ve been captain, not Bont

 

[kaistar]

Bevo obviously a well credentialed, great coach, but how come gowers and Lloyd are getting games in front of weightman and west. Lipinski seems to use the ball quite well. Smith seemed very fumbly all night.

 

[Substance]

It'd be cool if we kicked 30 goals this quarter

 

[Rocketsurgery]

Yeah, I saw that too. And Vandermeer took note. There will be a square up.

When an opposition player wants to do that i want to see one of our players run through him. Absolutely clean him so him and his team mates know they wont get away with it. I don't give a crap if our player gets suspended for a stretch. Show some mongrel.

We have a bunch of little bitches in this team. Learnt nothing from gws 2019 final

100%

They have 13 more inside 50’s than us Fronk. Two of the 3 total goals that Riewoldt and Lynch have got were from free kicks. The chol one was bad. Even if we play Naughton in defense do you simply want to keep letting Bruce get completely mauled with no support? Or would you rather we bring Schache back in next week?

 

[Erect]

Gowers obviously isn't the reason we're losing but it's the principle that he's playing over guys like West that has shown so much more which is the issue

He's been good all things considered. Would probably have two if it wasn't for the blood rule and with the way we've played as a team that's as good as you could hope for from a small forward.

 

[mambavino]

This game shows that we’re still a pretty flaky side at the moment. We won’t challenge until we can find that consistency of effort every time we cross the white line.

 

[SayerTheCreator]

Gowers on negative DT points. Outstanding effort son.

 

[Jeff 1975]

The Tigers arrogates is up to 11

Having Wallis Lloyd gowers Bruce all in the forward 50 is probably the slowest forward line in the AFL by a mile, we seriously lack speed in there and too often the speed we do have in Richards and vandermeer are required to push hard up the ground and use their speed coming back which means they are knackered when they get there and can’t apply pressure
