Dusty won the game for Richmond and Oscar kept Carlton in the game.

    [censored] you Richmond.

    Why do they do the little things so well? Doesn’t even take talent. But they do them better than anyone.

    Dusty is an absolute freak though.

    Is there anything worse than a player that kicks a goal rubbing the hair of the defender. Complete lack of respect and class. 

    you have to respect your opponent

    Yes but take Dusty out of that contest and they probably lose. But that is why teams win multiple flags there is always a  great player driving the success. Barassi, Matthews, Hodge, Hird, Dusty.

    Sam is not soft. Never squibs a contest and plays the ball hard. And doesn’t crap his pants when he has a shot on goal

    Weideman is soft as [censored]. Often gets monstered by the opposition key back

    Good luck

    Lost it already and I don't even follow either of these teams.

    we are going to get absolutely smashed this season, call me reactionary whatever. there was not a single around the ground ball up all game, boundary throw ins sure but pure ball ups - none. and that's all we're good at...

    Well, one things is for sure.

    BT & JB along with Jobe and Hodgey were appalling.

    Fair point. If there’s less stoppages as a result of the new rules and game styles, then our strength (stoppages and contests) is taken away and our weakness (clean kicking and maintaining possession) is magnified.

    They got closer to the Tigers than we did last year.

    Yes i was thinking about that

    Goodwin has coached a different game style. 
    we need players who spread and shepherd each other!!

    Carlton played into the tigers hands and nearly won.

    Good on them but playing that way against Richmond you will lose four out of six.

    Not sure what style is required but the slow maul is pobably better.

    I noticed the importance of fast hands tonight, teams who handball the quickest will do well (bulldogs come to mind)

    Thought Carlton did the overlap handball  really well. Wonder if that is coming back into vogue.

    Harry McKay really needs to convert better. He has all the tools!

    Noted that tonight, they played a different style, fast direct footy which was great to see, made them look like a far better side than us

    Might be tougher but had zero composure and can’t convert. 

    imagine if the Weed played the 3 quarters McKay played. He’d be crucified on here 

    Haha McKay can't convert,  but yet Weideman missed a simple goal 25m dead in front against Adelaide to win us the game..

    You say it's poor list management we delisted McDonald and now you're saying Weideman is better then McKay?? You really are a Doozy..

    McKay is everything I wish Weideman was at. Weideman has done nothing since that Geelong game. That's nearly 3 years ago now..

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
