Straight Sets Simon 23,113 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 5 minutes ago, Gawndy the Great said: I think we need to seriously consider resting a few for next week. We can get Hibbo, Sparrow, Smith and Grundy to cover a few players. Harmes, Jordon and Woewodin should be in the gun regardless of the result. 6 1 Quote
Nascent 9,345 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 Nice to see new PBs for Petty and JvR kicking a career high 6 goals and 4 respectively. Gawn huge in the last half. 4 Quote

See how many intercept marks Richmond got today in our forward line. Keep Tomlinson back, drop Harmes/Woewodin/Jordon and move Smith forward. His name is Robert Paulson. Sorry, that's a glitch. His name is Brody Grundy 1 2 Quote
Pennant St Dee 13,452 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 Good win, they came hard and like the crows did with us last week we just never let them get away when things weren’t going our way. We are an experienced side and stood up when we needed to. Some very important players hitting form at the right time. Clarry, Fritsch and Sparrow all to come in. Forward line mix today with Fritsch added is probably the one we go with 6 Quote

It's not about whether or not he can play forward, it's about what it does to the backline when he does. Thank god Lynch (and Nankervis) were out. Swings and roundabouts. Quote

GO YOU MIGHTY DEMONS!!! 🔴🔵👹 We didn’t just get the job done. They were desperate, and we ‘broke’ them! 3 Quote
YearOfTheDees 3,266 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 Did we just witness the perfect round of results for the MFC. Even the Freo win didn't change our draft hopes. 7 Quote
Dee-monic 620 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 Fantastic last quarter but until then our midfield and defence lacked pace and co-ordination. Outstanding displays by Max the Magnificent and the much-maligned Petty (six shots, six goals). Melksham's skills with both feet proved invaluable with two crucial goals from acute angles. We now need to win only two more games to clinch a top-four spot. Win all four and second place is possible. Altogether a superb round of results for us, and we still have Oliver and Fritsch to come back. I reckon Joel Smith's pace and ability to read the play earned him a chance to start ahead of Tomlinson next week. And to put some icing on the weekend cake, Freo's upset win failed to lift them on the ladder. 3 Quote

Nothing he’d done playing fwd this year gave any indication he had a game like that in him. Can't agree with that. He looked like he was going to rip the game apart before he was injured the last time he played fwd. I saw it coming, and there's more to come 9 Quote

He didn't look that happy after the game. It was as if he saw his chance of playing finals slipping through his fingers. I feel sorry for him. 2 Quote
DeeZee 7,496 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 They threw everything at us, but we stood tall and found our best forward line combination for the year with Petts, Roo, and Melky! 2 Quote
adonski 13,267 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 The best part about Petty's game was that it was actually against a pretty good defence 4 Quote

I saw it coming, and there's more to come Agree to disagree, didn’t read any comment in the pre game thread that had Petty kicking a bag. I’m glad that he did. I just find it childish when people want to carry on with their “to those who doubted…..”, footy’s an emotional game. I was wrong and I’m happy I was. 6 1 Quote
Skuit 10,031 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 Thanks to Richmond and the MFC for a seriously entertaining match. Was introducing the sport to my Albanian hosts and not embarrassed at all. They loved it. Plus Yze! We have at least six new fans - but I think I can convert the whole village. 22 1 1 Quote
