Hellish Inferno

That's some man bun on our trainer

Grrr need to make the most of this. Cats will have their time

They really know how to milk and play for free kicks. The bastards obviously train for it Definitely Scott's influence (along with Selwood). They probably justify it by the 'whatever it takes' mantra

Trac...

Happy with this. Yes it's not pretty all the time, but GWS are having a crack and making it difficult Hopefully we kick away by a few more goals. Dees by 30

Wow GWS playing pretty dirty and getting away with it, so many borderline frees not being paid to us. They've been fortunate with things going their way, but reckon we'll blow the game open at some point in the second half.

Wow those hotspots in the pockets for Richmond have to be a set play We definitely struggle to kick goals from centrally 20-30m out

I don't think this rule has even been exploited fully yet. On Saturday Fritsch took a mark about 45m out and was standing at the end of his set shot routine from about 65m. Rivers called for it running past but when Fritsch handballed it to him, the ump called play on so the man on the mark was able to run towards Rivers who had to kick it from about 55m. Wasn't really the smartest play to call for it so far out. To exploit this, once the ump has called "stand" the player taking the kick should be as close as possible to the mark and have players running past. This way Rivers should have been able to clear the man on the mark and kick from 40m. Previously the man on the mark would have seen this and shifted sideways to cut off the run through. It may even cause a 50m penalty if the man on the mark goes too soon

That's my impression also

Actually think his run up and kicking technique is good. Straight, steady etc. The issue is the ball drop and I wonder if his head is looking up to soon. Also, clearly thinking too much about it

Wow dumb football around goal

Special comments from Luke Darcy as King takes a set shot "Good looking kick. Slightly across the face...in fact he's missed the lot..."

HOLD YOUR FCKIN MARKS!!!

Darcy "Good looking kick...slightly across the face...in fact he's missed the lot"

Where are the players??

corrupt

Dumb

Smug umpire

Get stuffed, I command a high price for this level of wisdom and insight

Goal to Cox

Yep, good teamwork and well drilled coaching - sadly two things we seem to lack right now. Address this and we're top 4

Trac is a ripper, but what makes him a good leader that marshalls the troops and responds in game to opposition tactics? I feel our group were hurt more by the loss of on-field runners delivering messages. The best teams are well drilled, disciplined and have senior players that are also coaches on the field

Part of the problem is that so many of our mids only know one way and that was drilled into them since they were kids. The issues we saw with the midfield may look bad because the players are trying to do something different as instigated by Yze and co, and it doesn't come naturally so the first few games are still an adjustment period. Let's hope they figure it out soon
