Title: Richo -100% effort - 30% reward
Post by: {X} on August 19, 2007, 09:03:15 AM
richo is a liability and is not a champion, he is no where near a champion
champions kick goals when they need to be kicked and richo once again choked, not once but twice at very crucial times
ok , richo gives 100% but for what! heartache and consistant failure

its time he gave it up

we saw a young kid last night choke, jack did it, but second time round he composed himself and kicked truly. yes anyonme can miss, but miss twice from easy shots but a so called champion! no way.

yes brown missed an easy open goal too, but he was stiff he mised the post but he did play like a champion last night

even tambling showed great qualities, after a shakey start, kept his head up and played real well and kicked a gr8 goal

im sorry but for all the gr8 work richo does , he is a serial f up and shoudl just give it up!

its sad when a fool like the big q can miss kick goals and kick 7 and richo bust his behind for 3

on a side not, newman is hopeless, so is raines and sugar tried hard but has lost it, had a chance to kick a 50 m goal at a crucial stage where a captains goal was needed but chip kicked instead.

and that boy raines....no no no, lift ur game /improve ur skills or leave

You just said on another thread how we all know your opinion of Richo (not hard as it is continually forced down our throats) so why create another thread just to reiterate what we already know you think?

oh but repeatedly letting the world know how much one loves and gets wet over richo is ok

plz  :sleep :sleep :sleep

facts are facts . richo is an overrated has been and total choker!


ah when the game is done and dusted he has no trouble kicking a goal!!!!

when it means nothing


j.brown................ now there is a true champion!
everyone fears and respects brown, a true powerhouse fwd  that never ever lets his team nor fans down

richo is just a dead beat

and only blind tiger fans regard him as a gun, everyone else laughs at thim and does not fear him!

they let him get the ball as he will not damage and hurt where and when it counts

sooky richo lovers just have to accept he is not the player u all think he is

A bit of maturity wouldnt go astray ::)

A generalising lie, a hell of a lot of opposition players and supporters not to mention Richmond players and supporters,  have nothing but the utmost respect for Richo.
Fear?   hmmm he's paid to play football, not scare people


But last night he let the club down   :banghead

True but he certainly wasn't alone, altho some would say he lost it for us ::)

he is "meant" to be a champion, a leader, a star, a legend, a real goodplayer! but he has not shown for a few yrs running now that he can even be a matchwinner or inspiration
he nearly did , nearly v the dons this yr, but still stuffed up

but seriously , when is the last time richo dominated not just on the field but on the score board where it counts!!!!


richo has given his service to the club, gr8, tap him on the best , tell him the truth , yes u have given all and tried ur best but near enough aint good enough



hypo
richo in a grand final         22 kicks   18 marks 2 goals 6 behinds and 3 oof

he would choke

j brown would have 22 kicks 15 marks 7 goals 3 behinds and 6 goal assists

Sadly we'll never know what Richo would do in a GF. He's an enigma. He could have a day out.

Jonathan Brown didn't exactly star in Brisbane's 4 GFs even though he's a star.
2001: 14k 2h 5m 2.2  Won
2002:  8k  6h 5m 1.0  Won
2003:  9k  6h 8m 2.0  Won
2004:  7k  6h 6m 0.1  Loss

Browny has a worse career conversion than Richo btw. 57.3% to 59.5%.

... but Brown kicks the important goals, where Richo misses more than he kicks

 :banghead :banghead :banghead

love Richo, but his kicking for goal is his undoing unfortunately  :'(

His kicking of CLUTCH goals has punished us for years.
He does not convert crucial kicks, his mind plays tricks on him.

Seriously would you have Richo kick for goal to save your life??

in 2004, brownhs pinky finger was the only oart of his body that was not injured. but its what brown does on the field not just his kicking that is vital, he has presence, richo is a fairy

a totally fit brown is by far the best player in afl, and he is showing this atm

brown is a machine of a man, richo is just an oversized fairy whose game is controlled by fear and failure

No you wouldn't but neither would you want Nick Riewoldt, Rocca, Cloke, Q Lynch, Tarrant, Tredrea and a number of other forwards. Goalkicking is one skill that hasn't improved over time with professionalism. All our forwards last night missed gimme goals  :scream.

Missing goals when you are behind on the scoreboard always stands out more too especially if the opposition runs it up the other end for a killer goal. Richmond sides have spent most of the last 25 years being on the wrong side of the scoreboard during games.

confidence also plays a part IMO.

When your team is up and flying the nerves settle a bit more and the 2 goal posts are that much wider apart

For all his faults if there's someone who knows how to play with injuries it's Richo. His goalkicking is random but he ain't a fairy. By the way Joel Bowden has owned Jonathan Brown over recent years ;). At least Richo doesn't have that on his CV :lol.

ps. I saw the best player in the AFL last night in our game with the initials D.K. Games are won in the midfield.

To call a man who has made it to the top of his chosen proffession a fairy just goes to show you obviously have personal issues with Richo, an inferiority complex maybe, and the mention of him being oversized, maybe means you have issues with his height.
Once you come to terms with that, you might be able to move on and get over it!!!!

I love Richo but enough is enough.
He was pathetic on sat nite.
Was screaming at his teamates not kicking to him and when he does get it, misses easy shots.
They say AFL is an elite sport.  ::)
Watch Tiger Woods, now thats elite sport
I think Richo has been sensational for the RFC, if I was Wallace which I aint ( THANK GOD)  , I would play him at CHB or an extra onballer running off half back through the midfield. ;)
Title: Re: Richo -100% effort...stick to the Topic
Post by: WilliamPowell on August 20, 2007, 08:35:38 PM
Having spent the weekend visiting family interstate I am just catching up on the events on the forum.

The following is not directed at 1 individual but to all those who have over the weekend resorted to personal insults

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!   :banghead

Stick to the topic. Disagree with someone - thats fine, great even but to try and get your point across by taking what are commonly called "pot shots from the cheap seats" and insulting someone because you don't agree is unacceptable.

I am not interested in who started it, who said what because it doesn't hide the fact that a number of OER members are doing it - end of story.

I will repeat what we (MT & me) have said a number of times - stick to the bloody topic and stop with the insults. We've been extremely lenient (perhaps too lenient) but in fairness to everyone else who follows the guidelines please give it a rest. This is supposed to fun place to visit for everyone!

If you don't like a thread - dont post in it.

We cannot remove threads if they don't break the rules but we will edit threads if the get personal.

Regards
WP

Fitness and athleticism wise AFL is an elite sport but are far as ball skills go agree Jack nowhere near yet except for the top few players.   

I think Richo has been sensational for the RFC, if I was Wallace which I aint ( THANK GOD)  , I would play him at CHB or an extra onballer running off half back through the midfield. ;)
When Richo was younger they could have played him through the midfield but it's too late to change the way a 32 year old plays. Richo gets totally lost in the backline  :help.
