Demon Disciple

We were half way there before we decided to play some football GB.

Agreed Travis. J Smith thinks he's a world beater, he's about 4/5th in line when it comes to our tall forwards. I'd like to see Weed get more aggressive though, and tell him to keep out of his space.

Bloody annoying, clearly lack of communication, but i'd rather all went up than none at all.

only a dislocated finger thank christ. Put it back in then some ice will do the trick

Lions are being direct whilst we are stuffing around with too much handball.

Not sure if you've noticed Sisso, but going back to early 2000's, our season proper has generally reflected our pre-season form.

We look so hectic when going forward, yet we're letting them waltz through the midfield going the other way.

Good to see we have improved our defensive efforts over the summer. fmd.

Farcical it wasn't a free to Weed earlier, even more farcical that he was given one just then. Like always, umpires are continually negatively influencing the contest.

It's very concerning that we are conceding so many points against us. 113 against the Tigers and already 26 against the Lions and it's not even 20 minutes in.

The sooner he gets pushed out the better. At least Frost shows initiative and toe. OMAC is slow in every aspect of his play (especially in the head).

Get him to sign up the rest of his family, Chief!

Cough.......................Cyril Rioli........................Cough!!! Get Jordan Lewis into his ear

Stop [censored] up our game Gil. God i hope Robbo is right and you are shown the door come year's end.

Can't be too displeased with the final result. Our start was great, our second and third quarters were a worry, but liked that we fought back to within a goal in the last. With the players' we had out along with a horrid middle 2 quarters, we did well against a relatively strong Richmond side. Hope Garlett's injury isn't too much of a concern, but otherwise, thought it was just what we needed (highlighting the areas we need to further focus on going into the season).

He's slow in the head and slow in general play. He reminds me so much like Garland in their seemingly lackadaisical approach.

Yep agree King. He's just not quick enough instinct/reaction-wise. Nothing wrong with being a good disposer coming off HB though.

With the likes of Petty, OMAC, Frost and Wagner in there................can you be surprised?

Lack of appreciation for teeth.

Oliver is Oliver, but with the stunning emergence of Harmes and re-emergence of Gus, our midfield bats very deep.

We're missing VDB, Gawn, Viney, Hibberd, Jetta, Lever, May, Jones, Lewis, Melksham and Hannan (i count at least 9 of our best 22). Tiges are missing Grigg, Castagna, Lynch and Caddy from their best 22. A few missing from Tiges, a lot from our side, commentator clearly has NFI

Trac really needs to work on his goal kicking, he's had all summer to work on it and he is still having his troubles

Not surprising, but jeez Smith has a lovely leap. Effortless

Probably to see if we're looking good at making the finals p.s. which i think is as weak as pi$$

slow and steady young fella, it's a marathon not a sprint
