Age 485 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Disappointing crowd to be honest. Spare seats everywhere
Ethan Tremblay 31,388 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) We’ve gone backwards and are bottom four material. Two goals in a half isn’t good enough. We just aren’t up to it and are a comedy to watch. Edited April 24, 2018 by Ethan Tremblay 2

Could someone who is sound of mind give me, and others in the same boat, a brief run down of the half. It seems like we're having a dip but running into the same problems. Richmond get an inside 50 and if they get a point or intercept mark me go long down the line every time, they get the ball back. Rinse and repeat.
Redleg 42,156 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Worst skilled side in the AFL. Effort has been fine. Game plan putrid. Refuse to switch. They have no idea what they are doing. Evert kick is to a pack. Putrid football. 7
Brownie 6,086 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 We've had 3 up and then 4 up. I'm going to watch this one out to see if we can get 5 defenders to fly for a ball 1 3

Same as that except Richmond arent fully switched on. Otherwide it would be 6+ goals. At least tonight isnt raining. Goodwin has no idea how to adapt to a live plan.
gOLLy 401 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 They are a bunch of crazy chooks without any heads. No system at all. Don't get me started on Gartlett.
YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,823 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 We get sucked into the contest like seagulls and their is always tigers waiting for easy clearances it is really dumb football in slippery conditions What is with the continuous dependance on playing down the members wing [censored] me drunk. We are clueless a mess. 1
picket fence 18,184 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Stretch, Harmes, Neal Bullen, NEVER TO PLAY ANOTHER GAME Garlett, hanging on Just Game plan PUTRID SKILLS NON EXISTENT COACHING WOEEEEEEEFULLLLLLLL

Our effort and pressure is good. Skills for both sides have been bad very fumbly and a lot of hack kicks forward due to the pressure. We refuse to switch the play, constantly going down the line to contests where we are outmsnned and /or outsized Richmond have kicked 2 goals off the deck due to 3 defenders going for the ball. Same old story. Richmond have killed us in the centre clearances 7-2. Martin killed us out if the middle that quarter. Oscar has been very good, Lever serviceable in defence. 2

Has our defence been any better?

We kick to 3-1, we all go up in contests while they crumb goals out the back. We panic. We over handball. We are lost. What has happened to this team? We have gone so far backwards it’s frightening. Not one winner tonight except Oscar who has been solid all year. 1

Can always rely on you for an honest, balanced assessment, Doc. Cheers. The centre clearances are a real issue as it looks as though Gawn is dominating in the ruck and we are not taking advantage of that at all. Going simply by stats it also looks like Harmes, ANB, Brayshaw etc are giving us next to nothing at the moment which just isn't good enough. Hopefully something clicks and we turn the corner in the second half. 1
chook fowler 19,772 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 We have too many spuds including in the coaches box. We have no forward line and Fritsch is in the grandstand. FMD.
Go the Biff 3,474 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 What run we had from the backline has evaporated. No run in the midfield. Too many in the contest as opposed to at the contest. Getting towelled in the middle. No forward coming TO the ball. Finger in the dyke stuff this. Second half could get ugly And this kick down the line stuff is (shudder) Neeld-esque
sisso 2,627 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Shocking game of footy, we don’t look likely to kick more than about 2 more goals at best
SaberFang 7,151 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 The whole situation is just baffling to me. As everyone else has said, we've gone backwards at light speed. What the [censored] has gone wrong with this club in the off-season? If we keep this up, we'll be lucky to get out of the bottom 6.
Straight Sets Simon 23,113 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 We are playing Neeld-era football. 1
layzie 34,528 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Is there any reason why we are so unclean with the foot and they are slick?
praha 11,267 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Defensively we are doing okay but structurally everywhere else it's actually worse than last week.
