Well that’s another choke that cost us the season. I’d say it’s mathematically impossible to make it now. Daisy was quiet and down on form as were a number of teammates. At lest there were a few decent kicks and marks. One thing you can take from this game was that it was pretty high scoring for a female match.

What was so bad about it? One was pretty similar to most old scoreboards. The other was one the yellow and black tv. I always thought the tv, although not in colour, looked neat was had a futuristic look to it. Again, the car parks were the main drawback. But as I said, Dad always took us for a bite to eat and drink afertwards, giving us plenty of time to wait for it to calm down. Like I said before, leaving the G after a game and getting to the station is madness. I have been pushed, groped, rubbed up against, had my ass grabbed in the tight conditions, not to mention how unbearably cramped and hot it is on the train. I have opposition players ridicule me if we lost, drunk idiots trying to ask me for my number. All the great fun of leaving at Richmond. Which is why I try to go have a meal or drink before the mad rush home. And sometimes I have to work the next day, which makes me even later. The fact is for people in places such as Dandenong, Cranbourne, Springvale (all booming populations), etc, it was a really convenient place to drive to. Most of the residents of the SE surburbs were sad to see it go. I for one was devestated. I’d gone there so much in my youth, it was almost like a playground to me. I read John Cain was an MCC supporter and didn’t want the MCG losing matches. Let’s not forget how cricket and now soccer have forced the AFL of the G at several occasions. Had Waverley been upgraded, I doubt they’d be kicking us off the G for soccer. I mean take all AFL game of the G and see how long they can survive in occasional soccer internationals.

Goodbye season 2018. Pathetic effort against a rubbish team.

Banana is killing us.

Disgusting. They’re just walking right through us like we’re not even there. Not even trying now.

The problem is because of the short length of quarters and infrequency of goals, lead protection becomes an important coaching strategy

He’s jus got to get it into them to stop following the ball regardless where they are. Try to make positions and opportunity’s for your teammates to kick to. Plys try to make the, understand if we lose this, we won’t make it to the grand final. They can’t just stop scoring when they switch goals at quarter time.

It’s why I love football and hate soccer. Soccer is like watching grass grow.

Yet another lead captulation

Pretty good so far.

But I don’t see why it would give Richmond an advantage over them.

Waiting...

See how Bitchmond are beating Essonscum. Maybe it is a hint of what’s to come in the season ahead.

Maybe they just use this as a practise game, but the way they were marking and kicking was brilliant. If this was at training I’d still be excited about the year ahead.

I never once saw any moss on any seats I went to. If they did, don’t forget they repainted them in the 90’s. Again, it takes forever to get out to a train, through shoving pushing (on even worse days) groping at Richmond. You had the option of staying st the pubs and having a drink before leaving to wait if you liked. And considering how quickly you got home afterwards. As much as I go to games now it was never as much as I did at Waverley. Having a ground so close and not have to take trains or go to the city. It was a fantastic ground. Defensible.

Right into the crowd! Love it.

Everyone gets beaten once in a while, Parker!

And people were saying that our female team play better last week ?

Regarded by who? I went there as a child and I never once complained about the cold. Seems to me a grown man would be able to take it better than a little girl. It was a fine ground. Never had any complaints the whole time I went there and I was there at the famous bears hail storm games. Massive ground and ten times better than the cesspit that is Docklands.

Love it when we double their score. I think maybe now the game safe in our keeping, bring on some of the new kids and maybe some experimentation in position changes to see how they’ll work.

Killing them. I hope this is an indication of how good we will be in 2018. Already set a date to go to the North game

46-92

Aw no too cool? It’s a winter sport. Gee some people complain about anything, you would have hated following football in the 60’s. Monash freeway was easily accessible. Just a weak excuse to get rid of all the suburban grounds.

Maybe, but all I see is grass. I thought they’d be itching for big league games. The weather looks a lot better than here.

I went there all the time and never once had that problem. I think people who aren’t from the SE suburbs were just in a stink that we had a major stadium at our doorstep.
