Kurt Tippett may be in doubt in to play for the Crows this week after suffering a knock to the head and concussion against North.

That will help.
-
Nought chopped them up with handball and it looks like Adelaide don't have a plan B when sheer numbers around the ball doesn't work. Our high possession 'keepers off' game might just work out perfect for this game.
-
Wonder if Walker will get in trouble for his kick? :pray
-
My predictions for this week..
Carlton will beat Hawthorn and we will lose to the Crows.
-
Tippert will play
-
Would rather play the Crows at full strength...
-
Taylor walker has been cleared... Suprise suprise ::)
Source from twitter and SEN,
Listening to Robbo on SEN, he is outrages they cleared Waleker and said it was malicious and inconsistent.
-
North did us absolutely no favours at all by beating Adelaide. Expect the crows to come out very strongly against us
-
Anyone got a link to the Walker incident? Listening to sen and fat f*** Robbo thinks he should have copped something.
-
For those living in Adelaide or travelling over there this week, the team will be training at AAMI Stadium on Friday at 2pm.
-

I'm sure the MRP would have looked at the case, raised their eyebrows then looke at opposition for next week and smirked... Papers stamped your clear to play ::)

If that's the case we still owe em for the geelong game
Plus if you have a look at the fixture Nought have a game in rd 19 against doggies. The week before us, bet I can tell what will happen there as if scripted.

You would think that we would be too good for the dogs at the MCG.
Will probably rain :shh
-
Get Jake King to do the pre game address against the dobbers to get us fired up!!!
I think we match up pretty well against them actually, hopefully Foley, Grimes & Vickery come in for O'Hanlon, Batchelor/Dea & Miller.
Jackson to go to Thomson and Lids, Cotch, Dusty to go head to head with Sloane, Dangerfield & Vince. Foley & Grigg to get off the chain.
Big Ivan to come out fired up also....
Tigers by 15 points

I think this is gonna be a great game this weekend!
Re: nought they are like a pimple on a bum, annoying enough for you to scratch it but nothing worth doing anything about.
Would love to smash em by 15 goals this year.
-
I give us a huge chance.
Grimes and massive ins.
Crows have five day break. They have been good but they are not a top 2 side that they have been playing at all season. At some stage the standard they have set so far will drop. I'm hoping with illness and a 6 day break we can exploit them.
Won't be easy but not impossible. Can be done. :thumbsup

Agree tuck, would love to win and let pushup do a bart simpson on the adelaide cheer squad (flash his arse)

Stats that matter
Jason Porplyzia will play his 100th game against Richmond at AAMI Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Tigers play a high-possession game, ranking 1st in the AFL for handballs, total disposals and uncontested possessions. Brett Deledio has collected more disposals (330) than any other Richmond player, putting him in the top-10 possession-getters in the League this season. Deledio is also the best player in the competition at sending the ball inside his team’s forward 50m.
Ex-Carlton onballer Shaun Grigg is one of the architects of Richmond’s possession game. Grigg is ranked seventh in the competition for effective kicks (129), third in long kicks (72) and second in uncontested possessions (230).
Tony Modra holds the record for most Crows goals in a game against Richmond. The mercurial forward booted a Club record 13 goals in Adelaide’s round 16 win over the Tigers in 1993.
Shane Tuck and Trent Cotchin are Richmond’s leading ‘inside’ players. Tuck is ranked second in the League behind Patrick Dangerfield for hard-ball gets (86) and sixth in contested possession (165). Cotchin is also top-15 in both of these statistics.
Adelaide has won 19 of the 29 matches played between these two teams, but Richmond has taken the honours in the past two clashes.
Former teammates Sam Jacobs and Ivan Maric will go head-to-head for the first time this weekend. Jacobs and Maric are No.1 and No.2 in the competition, respectively, in hit-outs to advantage this season.
Jack Riewoldt is second in the Coleman Medal race, having slotted 35 goals in 12 matches this year.

Shows how uneven the competition is. Out of the past 5 meetings (over 4 years), one game has been at our home ground (or in our home state) and we are about to saddle up for another away game.
Ridiciulous.

They must be basing it on info from last week when our injury list hadn't been updated since June 5. Let's hope they are also wrong with out of date opposition analysis on Saturday.

Preview: Adelaide v Richmond
By Harry Thring and Paul Daffey
Tue 26 Jun, 2012
WHERE AND WHEN: AAMI Stadium, Saturday June 30, 1.40pm
LAST TIME: Adelaide 15.9 (99) defeated by Richmond 17.19 (121) round 23, 2011 at AAMI Stadium
After a disappointing display last weekend against North Melbourne, the Crows will be hell bent on restoring order against a rested Richmond outfit. The Tigers enjoyed a bye last weekend, but will that work in their favour? Richmond is building towards a long-awaited return to finals football and a big scalp in Adelaide would be a huge step to achieving that goal.
THE FOUR POINTS
ADELAIDE
1. Adelaide was well down in its primary KPI against North Melbourne - contested possession. The Kangaroos smashed the Crows at the contests; managing 134 contested disposals - 19 more than Adelaide. Coach Brenton Sanderson will want his players to get back to what they had done so well in the first half of the season, because another loss here and a few questions will start to be asked.
2. If the Crows are to play a telling role come finals time they must stop their opposition scoring when their own attack dries up. After Fremantle worked its way back from a six-goal deficit in round 10 and St Kilda from five goals back in round 12, North Melbourne kicked away last Sunday. There's no doubt that when Adelaide's flying, it's one of the most imposing sides in the competition, but when it's not it seems to be scored against with relative ease.
3. Adelaide's midfield didn't fire against the Kangaroos, conceding more clearances it they won and leaking 16 more inside 50s. Scott Thompson, Patrick Dangerfield and Rory Sloane were all serviceable, but their numbers weren't high enough and they didn't receive nearly enough support from Brent Reilly, Richard Douglas or Bernie Vince. With Richmond boasting one of the elite midfields of the competition, the Crows' engine room must rebound.
4. Taylor Walker found some goalkicking form last Sunday, finishing with 3.1. With Kurt Tippett no certainty to play after he suffered concussion against North Melbourne, Walker might need to step up his output against Richmond. He's capable of tearing sides apart and with Jack Riewoldt at the other end, a mid-90s-style full forward showdown could eventuate.
RICHMOND
1. The most notable duel in this match will be between Adelaide ruckman Sam Jacobs and his Richmond counterpart Ivan Maric. It was after the Crows had flagged their interest in enticing Jacobs from Carlton that Richmond moved in to lure Maric from Adelaide. Both men have had fine seasons, but the Richmond man is winning by comparison. He has more marks, kicks, handballs and, especially, tackles. Jacobs will need a big game to tip the scales in his favour.
2. The feelgood story out of Richmond's defeat of Greater Western Sydney in round 12 was the performance of half-forward Daniel Connors, who returned from oblivion to kick three goals, including two in the last quarter as the Tigers fought off the Giants' challenge. The club suspended Connors during the off-season for his nocturnal shenanigans. He had to string together a series of consistent performances with the Coburg Tigers before earning a recall to the Richmond team, and he'd be keen to hold his spot.
3. Richmond's two key defenders - inexperienced pair Alex Rance and Ben Griffiths - will have their work cut out against Adelaide duo Tippett (if selected) and Walker. Rance has been a rock this season. He's also been the first point of attack on many occasions; his average of 16 disposals a game is high by full-back standards. Griffiths has been only fair since earning a recall in round nine, and will want to be at his sharpest to hold off Walker, who's likely to his opponent.
4. Last week's bye came at the right time for Richmond. After winning four games in five weeks, the Tigers came unstuck against Fremantle in round 11 and only just managed to get home against the Giants in round 12. They appeared tired and battered, and in need of a rest. By this Saturday it will have been 14 days since their last match, while Adelaide will have had a break of six days. The Tigers should be fresh and raring to go.
AFL.com.au prediction: Adelaide by 21 points

David King did his usual thing on AFL Insider breaking some plays down. He went to Norf v Adelaide and showed exactly what he showed for Saints v Adelaide. Adelaide are still throwing way too many at the contest and no one is standing out. Norf used it against them (as did Saints) and only sent in a few to hold up the ball. They kept 5-6 in positions around the contest to either pressure the Crows if they won it, or spread as loose players should the Roos get it out. Either Adelaide will put a fix on this during the week and nominate players to leave out or our natural game will pull us through.

Adelaide claiming tonight that Tippett is most likely to play this week ...
------------------------------
CONCUSSED Crows forward Kurt Tippett is back on the training track and more certain of playing against Richmond at AAMI Stadium on Saturday night.
Tippett, subbed out of Sunday's 32-point loss to North Melbourne after taking a knock to the back of the head in a marking contest, was cautiously restricted to light duties on Max Basheer Reserve this morning.
As Tippett declared to the Crows fans he was getting better, Adelaide football operations manager Phil Harper is increasingly confident Tippett will headline the Crows' attack against the Tigers.
"The doctors are reasonably pleased with Kurt's progress so we're confident he will be right for the weekend," Harper told AdelaideNow.
"It was not a major blow - enough to make the doctors have Kurt subbed out of the game, but we think he will be right to play."
Tippett will step up his training in Adelaide's major session on Wednesday and, after being named in the Crows' squad on Thursday, will be put through another demanding session on Friday.

The Crows trained behind closed doors today. The SA reporter on SEN reckons it's touch and go for Tippett but he doesn't think he'll play.

From Dimma's press conference today...
Adelaide will face the Tigers after a disappointing 32-point loss to North Melbourne at Etihad Stadium last Sunday, and Hardwick expects the 9-3 Crows to bounce back with a vengeance this weekend.
"There's a number of things the Crows do very, very well. They're one of the form sides of the competition," Hardwick said.
"There's no doubt it will be an enormous game for us this weekend."
http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/139711/default.aspx
Hardwick admitted he was impressed with the speed the Kangaroos moved the ball and said the out-of-sorts Crows couldn't stop their momentum.
But he predicted they would bounce back. "They're obviously one of the form sides of the competition and they had a bad loss last week," he said.
"We've got no doubt it will be an enormous game for us."
The coach said every game was huge for his side if they wanted to snare a spot in the finals with five sides — from eighth to 12th — all on 24 points.
"It's probably going to take 13 wins to nail that final one or two spots so we've probably got to win seven out of 10 like three or four other sides around us.
"It's going to create an interesting week-to-week basis for the season and is also going to be a fantastic finish to the year."

Still mixed messages about Tippett...
"... with the news Adelaide spearhead Kurt Tippett is likely to play after overcoming concussion."

"Key forward Kurt Tippett didn't train on Wednesday after being concussed in last Sunday's loss, but Sanderson was confident he would play on Saturday.
He said Tippett had one more test to pass on Friday to satisfy the AFL's concussion rules, while Sam Shaw might need a week to recover after he hyperextended his knee."

Do you believe in the Mayan calendar?
Surely not. If the kid plays he plays who cares. Playing injured (concussed) players is a sign by them on how serious they are taking this game and their top 4 chances.
As far as I am concerned if we are good enough we'll win.

Sportal is tipping the Crows by 14 pts...
WE THINK:
The ruck battle between in-form former team-mates Maric and Sam Jacobs looms as the pivotal match-up on Saturday. Jacobs is producing another banner season after his breakthrough 2011 campaign, while Maric, who was squeezed out of Adelaide largely due to Jacob's fine form, is enjoying an even superior season. Facing his old side for the first time, Maric won't be shy of motivation either. Several of the Crows' prime 2012 movers were off-colour in Sunday's listless defeat to North and will need to lift against a Tigers outfit who possesses a first-class midfield noted for their swiftness of ball movement, spread and uncontested prowess. Richmond have produced super-competitive efforts against most of the top sides this season and will likely do so again, but the Crows' desperation to bounce back coupled with home ground advantage gives them the edge.
Adelaide by 14 points.

We are overwhelming underdogs with the bookies and journos ...
Odds (tab sportsbet)
Richmond $ 3.00
Adelaide $ 1.40
Line is 17.5 pts.
Media 'expert' tipsters
Herald-Sun 27 - 2
The Age 20 - 3
Robbo, Caro and Richo all tipped us.
-
Pressure on them not us. Got nothing to lose. Have to go in very hard at the contests
-
Considering we just had a week off then there is no excuse. We have to smash in hard and overrun them in the 2nd half.
-
Yeah, Muscles jinxed it :banghead ;D
But to balance the jinx, I've backed the Blackbirds. That usually guarantees that I lose my money
-
I sense equilibrium in the Force.
-
The most important question of all....Whats the weather forecast? We've proven recently we are definitely not Mud Runners. If its wet we will probably lose by a fair margin. If its a dry track, we are in with a big chance.
-
Apparently it'll be our 3rd straight game in the wet ... :-\
DESPITE the expected wet and slippery conditions at AAMI Stadium on Saturday, Adelaide defender Ben Rutten says sliding is the last thing the Crows want to do against Richmond.

Update
90% chance of rain and approx 10mm, mainly falling between 10am and 4pm
It's going to be wet :yep

stuff that!
-

right on the money.
Just go for it and have a dip, you never know what we can acheive. Last year we smashed 'em so confidence shouldn't be a problem.

Taming Crows
By Paul Daffey
Sat 30 Jun, 2012
RICHMOND can think of itself as lucky or unlucky going into its round 14 match against Adelaide at AAMI Stadium.
The Tigers might fear the wrath of the Crows, who would be keen to rebound after their surprising 32-point loss to North Melbourne last weekend.
Or they might have learnt a few things about how to put away the Crows from the Kangaroos.
Adelaide has tendency to push its forwards towards the stoppages to crowd the area, relying on its capacity to win the clearances in heavy traffic and then push its players forward to the next contest.
The form of Patrick Dangerfield and Rory Sloane has increased the effectiveness of this tactic.
If the Crows win a clearance close enough to their forward 50, they kick long to key forwards Kurt Tippett and Taylor Walker, who are two of the in-form forwards in the competition.
Walker's 32 goals rank him fourth in the competition, while Tippett's 26 goals are ninth. The work of small forwards such as Ian Callinan (18 goals) is equally important.
While the Crows rank fourth for going inside 50, according to Champion Data, they're second for scoring once inside 50.
This is a seismic improvement on last year, when the Crows ranked 17th.
In terms of total score, they have gone from 15th last year (an average of 79 points a game) to sixth this season (102).
While Richmond's points-for is about the same as last year (95 per game), its defence has improved.
To beat the Crows, North Melbourne developed a plan around halting the Crows' ability to charge forward from stoppages.
The Roos made sure one defender didn't follow his opponent into the stoppage area, instead using that defender as a spare man across half-back. The Roos then assigned a forward to come up and mind the defender's opponent in the congested area.
The Crows are the No.1 inside team in the competition, with their ability to extract the ball from stoppages setting them apart this season.
The Roos' sweeper, however, was there to mop up the Crows' hurried kicks from stoppages.
The sweeper then began a counter-attack that, in many cases, resulted in scoring opportunities.
The Roos had five more clearances than the Crows, a noteworthy statistic on its own, but killed the Crows in goals scored through turnovers.
North Melbourne's tenacity around the ball and the man across half-back were crucial to the victory.
Richmond, under highly-regarded defensive coach Ross Smith, plays a seventh defender more often than not, enabling backmen such as Dylan Grimes and Alex Rance to act as sweepers and become important attacking weapons.
Grimes, who is back for the Adelaide match after five weeks out with a torn hamstring, has the highest average marks in the team (seven), highlighting his ability to intercept.
Rance ranks second for average marks with six.
Full-forward Jack Riewoldt has an average of only four marks, and no other Tiger forward averages more than two marks a game.
The Tigers' strengths mostly are the opposite to Adelaide's.
While the Crows are one of the longest-kicking teams and have one of the lowest handball counts, the Tigers handball more than any other team in the competition.
They kick and handball so often that they have the highest disposal differential in the league, while they also rank fourth for kicking efficiency.
It's just that when they get inside 50 they struggle to convert because there's been no other effective target besides Riewoldt.
The stats of the Crows and the Tigers come together in one crucial area— hit-outs to advantage — for which they're equal first in the rankings.
This makes Adelaide's Sam Jacobs and Richmond's Ivan Maric the most effective ruckmen in the competition, with the fact that Jacobs pushed out Maric from Adelaide giving their duel extra spice.
It's set to be a highlight of what promises to be a match of contrasts.

Cheers for that Yeahright :cheers.
Grimes, Morris and Elton named on the bench.

Does anyone have a stream for todays game???
-
Good move. If the weather or the game itself bogs down talls at either end, Connors is a pretty good choice for a sub.
-
Thanks OER doesn't look good weather at all.
At the mrc rooms, worried I parked my car in the G
Will it:
A) be there when I get back??
B) been tampered with by collingwood ferals?
Or c) converted into a makeshift home by collingwood crims??
-
Looks bright and sunny at the moment on foxsports but they said they are expecting hail later.
-
perhaps the wet weather may be to
our advantage having played our
last 2 games in this sort of thing.
have the crows recently im not
so sure of...we might adapt early
and put the screws on them.
probably more wishful thinking on my
part in trying to win this game.
anyway goodluck boys tough tight
football and stick it up those croweaters!!!!
-
C'mon Tiges! Hard and first at the footy :gotigers. Need to play direct footy too at Footy Park.

Great....stuffing Dwayne Russell calling the game on fox sports today. Worst caller going around, hate his smug comments, ruins the game and when we're losing no other malaka fires me up more

Great use of the body by Miller

Grigg inside 50 and Jack marks 50m out. This is outside his comfortable kicking range. Doesn't make the distance. One flaw with Jack's kicking is he isn't a long kick.

Free to Houli or Rance (not sure). Advantage. Tucky inside 50 and Lids marks. Goal :gotigers

Great courage by Houli
-
Bloody hell, just got back from a ride can't believe it GO TIGES, now I can't get in the bloody house to watch because wife is shopping .... poo
-
Every 1 in 4 Crow turnover is ending up in a goal to us.
Free to Walker 35m out :scream.
44 - 18
-
That's holding the ball ump but eventually the umps pays the throw. Lazy kick Jack.
Cotch gets it back and finds big Ivan. Misses.
45 - 18
-
Cotch pinches it to Tucky inside 50. Scramble. Jakey to Nahas towards goal but Titch runs over it. Adelaide turn it over and Grigg finds Miller 48m out. Shocker misses everything ::). Leave it to Dusty next time Brad.
-
Hold frigging good is Cotch :bow. Titch shoots but kicks it OOTF hitting the behind post :P
Sheesh we should be a further two goals up.
Newy to Lids long to the goalswuare. Nahas fancy feet and Jack goals :gotigers

Go tigers kill em
-
stuffing miller ::) Martin, lids and miller there miller takes the mark and doesn't make the distance
And now Edwards ootf from 20 mins
Edit
Goal to jack out of nothing! Phew, damage averted from a couple of dumb plays
-
What a start to the boys. imagine if we played like this against GWS >.> The rain is definitely danger for us.
No doubt the crows will mount a comeback dont get your hopes up yet !
Miller displayed why he shouldnt be in the team.. Should be dropped next week.
:gotigers :gotigers :gotigers :gotigers
-
Great quarter of football there tiges :clapping. Have set it up now finish it!
-
great stuff Tigers :clapping. Keep it up.
Richmond 8.3-51
Adelaide 3.0-18
Goals: Riewoldt 3, Edwards 2, Martin, Nahas, Deledio
Cotch, Tucky killing them in the centre. Jack too good for Rutten. Grimesy has sured up our back and Rance is doing enough to contain Walker.
-
Miller out lucky jack and edwards is on
-
Shank has been great too
-
Jackson takes twice as long as everyone else to kick the bloodt ball
-
Get Dan Connors on at half-time, Miller off and we will go ballistic! Cotch is a magnificent footballer :clapping
-
Breathtaking footy!
-
Bloody great qtr boys keep it up..... Still waiting outside.....thank god for Foxtel IQ
-
We've learnt from the Roos last week to get the ball forward quickly as the Crow defenders crack 1-on-1.
Man-love for Cotch :bow ;D.
-
Damm Martin has come out firing 1 goal 8 possies keep it up son
-
Cotchin is amazing.
Miller is useless.
-
stuff miller
So crap
-
Miller ::)
Adelaide rebound and goal.
51 - 24
-
awesome start, cant believe first time in how long I haven;t managed to watch. set radio up and drops out 10 minutes before match starts :banghead ,streaming blocked on net - ahh afl app download on iphone :thumbsup f u world
keep it up tigers :pray
-
Wow, that's one of the dumbest plays I've seen
-
Miller scared to shoot from 30 out
12 point play
-
Cant wait till half-time Sub Miller now!!!!
-
Yeah Miller plays his role great
Some of you lot have no idea
What an absolute momentum killer that idiot is
-
Whoever is on sloane ffs tighten up!
-
Jacko cant hold a tackle!!!!!!!
-
Ah bugger. Titch threw it.
Can;t afford these easy rebounds out of our forward line :banghead.
51 - 30
-
I blame Miller for that, Tard!
-
Where's the pressure Tiges? :banghead
51 - 36
-
3 goals in abt 55 secs. Game on stuff
-
stuffing tiges
-
Yeah Miller plays his role great
Some of you lot have no idea
What an absolute momentum killer that idiot is
Momentum being the key word.
Good stuff bradley.
-
does anyone ever kick points against us
-
Yeah Miller plays his role great
Some of you lot have no idea
What an absolute momentum killer that idiot is
Changed the game could've led by 39 now lead by 15.
Eff him off for ever.
-
Were crap we only just beat GWS
Miller is a gun...FACT
-
Can't turn it over (Lids). Need to control the footy and even up the game again.
-
ahhh, dont throw it away tiges :(
-
i called sportsbet at quarter time and tooK the 4.20 odds on offer cause i knew with spuds like Miller we were always a chance for this to happen.
stuff HE IS S.H.I.TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
-
stuff we are competitive but poo we let teams back into games wtf is going on
-
50m against Rance :banghead.
Our braindead 2nd quarters :banghead
Lucky they miss.
51 - 37
-
Brad Miller 33 points up 40 out no confidence in shooting for goal should not play simple.
Would have been better playing wheeling Shane Morrison out of retirement.
Sub him off to the Lort Smith Home and get Pia to pick him up.
Can't afford to carry this hack.
-
Watch sloane, his opponent showing him zero respect, staggered a player like that is allowed to be on his own the whole time
-
need an answer
-
There's the answer another goal to the crows coming up
stuff we've stopped
-
We can't find a mark inside 50 nor keep it in there long enough to build up pressire. It's just rebounding out of there too easily.
51 - 43
This is pathetic Tiges.
-
Can't mark Can't kick can't shoot for goal can't punch in a contest can't tackle just gets in others way misses easy shots at goal and all momentum dies when he gets involved.
Sub him.
Could have been 57-18.
Is now 51-43.
Brad Miller you are a hack.
-

Once the ball hits the ground we are a man down with Miller playing.
-
Happy for Elton to be in the side but thats throwing too much pressure on Jack , Miller takes no slack at all and i prefer conca in rotating martin cotchin and deledio wtf is going on
-
Dusty goal :gotigers
Gift from the Crows but we'll take it.

Cream always rises to the top what a bloody legend this guy is
-
If adelaide didnt make these defensive 50 mistakes we wouldnt be winning. So glad cotchin and martin have the skill to finish it off and make em pay !
-
poo, how many goals have we scored from turnovers? :o
-
needed those, why does jack lead to the pocket :banghead
-
Poot :banghead
-
Our kicks inside 50 have been ordinary this quarter.
Thank gawd the Crows are colour blind. That's the only reason we are in front by 20.
-
with the good start I believe this game is the test of where we are, must win from here.
-
needed those, why does jack lead to the pocket :banghead
Crows have a spare man in defence floating in front.
-
Our kicks inside 50 have been ordinary this quarter.
Thank gawd the Crows are colour blind. That's the only reason we are in front by 20.
you listening to sen too ;D
-
King to be subbed off. Miller full game lol
-
Jake King injured, probably would rather miller for connors but ill take king too
-
Our bottom 6 are letting us down.
Kingy off the ground limping. In the rooms.
Great tha means Miller stays on for the full game :banghead
Tuck snaps a point.

Dea handball knocked down. Turnover :banghead.
64 - 49

Damm i think we are screwed unless jack kicks 6
-
Our captain is having another ineffectual game, has lost the last two 50/50 contests, really should have held that ball up against tippet on the ground, crap!
-
We need to the siren so we can regroup over half-time. Dimma will be doing his head in.
-
Our captain is having another ineffectual game, has lost the last two 50/50 contests, really should have held that ball up against tippet on the ground, crap!
Morris should have done better.
-
Last season of captaincy for Newman. Has been on the whole very poor this year
-
Feel a bit sorry for young Elton
-
Siren! Thank gawd for that.
Half-time
Richmond 8.3 10.4-64
Adelaide 3.0 8.1-49
Goals: Riewoldt 3, Edwards 2, Martin 2, Nahas, Deledio, Cotchin
-
Our small backs are making far too many mistakes. Griff going great :thumbsup Grimesy :thumbsup Rance :-\
-
Don't reckon we can hold on, just a dumb footy side, a bit of polish and poise and we could have weathered the onslaught and still been 4-5 goals up, Edwards goes for gjack 2 on1 in the goal square when he had 2 team mates free in front of him, the miller brain fart, bit of poise boys, good sides would have kicked goals at those moments to kill ace aides momentum....
-
Feel a bit sorry for young Elton
Should have held those 2 marks but will get his chance when the game slows down.
-
Very Very impressed usual suspects Rewoldt Cotchin Maric Deledio and guess what big mullet has over 50 DT points till half time
-
Our captain is having another ineffectual game, has lost the last two 50/50 contests, really should have held that ball up against tippet on the ground, crap!
Morris should have done better.
Was our captain that was fighting for the ball on the ground, should have held it up, 1 min before that lost another contest on the wing, is a liability as a player atm let alone as a captain
-
When structures are planned and created and they work to a t only for a bloke to have no confidence in his own ability not because he lost it but because he has never had it then that is what kills us from taking the next step.
Last year he was perfect for us no expectation to make finals that's why he can play this year the bar has been raised and our expectations and our ambitions are greater than playing MILLER THE TORTOISE in such an active and necassary role where pace skill and confidence is the key.
Please get rid of him.
Adds nothing but stench.
Kingy's gone and Miller gets a full game woo hoo.
I say sub Miller and play with one down. We've had the week off and they played at Etihad on Sunday. Should still out run them.
-
miller and rance will cost us this game
they are having shockers
and jackstar thinks miller is a good player lmao
-
Millzay to kick 8 in the second half
(http://www.survivinggrady.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/tack-miller-welcome.jpg)

He's going as well as Tippett is.

Tackles: 34 - 29
Frees: 13 - 4 ...... :o
Inside 50s: 31 - 21
We should be further up based on those stats.
That 10 minute lapse at the start of the 2nd qtr hurt us.
-
Such a familiar story for the Tiges, seen it so many times before, cant seem to back up a very good quarter. I can sense we will be overrun by a fast finishing Crows in the last quarter, once the crowd get involved it will be a colossal effort for the Tiges to win this one. It will however be sign of where we are as a team if we can regroup and take back control of the game.

Not only didn't he have the balls to kick it from 30 meters out to practically seal the game but he kicked 15 meters to the centre of the corridor to a 50/50 contest. :banghead
-
stupid footy in that 2nd qtr, bombing the ball to jack when he has 3 on him , open ur eyes stooges
-
Frees are 13 - 4 in our favour....Please umpires don't 'even-up' after half-time :pray
-
We will come out this 3rd Quarter strong ! Not as strong as the 1st but we will increase the lead and hopefully hold it to the final siren. :gotigers :gotigers
-
I can sense we will be overrun by a fast finishing Crows in the last quarter, once the crowd get involved it will be a colossal effort for the Tiges to win this one.
Crows have only had a 6 day break and travelled so I'm confident that if we keep this lead going in to the last quarter we will draw away.
-
Feel a bit sorry for young Elton
He's going as well as Tippett is.
Griff is slaughtering him!
-
Hopefully our one bad quarter per game is out the way.
Kingy being hurt has probably mucked up Dimma's plans. Elton sadly would be the one taken off having not touched the ball even though guys like Miller and Jacko are momentum killers. As mentioned Rance is having a shocker but it doesn't help when Crows are streaming down the ground unopposed. The game is an old fashioned 80s shootout. Whoever gets the ball forward quickly on the rebound without making a mistake kicks a goal. Cotch copping the heavy tag has seen our disposal efficiency fall off as the ball is in inferior hands and minds. This is where we miss Foley.
Best: Grigg, Tucky, Lids, Dusty, Grimesy, Griffs. Cotch needs help from others to legally collide with his tagger to free him up. Or push him forward.
-
King subbed off.
Go Connors !!
-
Connors on; King off.
Van Berlo subbed off for Adelaide.
Edit: beat me to it Nick :cheers
-
Newy and Morris do the 1-2-1-2. Ends up with a Connors marks. Goal :gotigers
Rich 70
Adel 49

Connors with a mark in 50 already :D AND ITS A STUFFING GOAL
-
Connors! :bow
-
Grimes has played well today
-
Goal to Adelaide :P
70 - 55
-
Martin really stuffed that up then :banghead
-
If the prop kicks this were stuffed
-
Point to them.
Need to control possession again. ..... Not that that from the kick-in :scream.
Now a free to Adelaide gives them a shot. Thankfully it's OOTF.
70 - 56
-
Geez...
-
They are controlling this game now....
-
Porp and tippet starting to have an influence
-
Getting smashed in the clearances. Proplyzia marks again :scream.
Drops short and Tippett marks :banghead. That's pathetic defending Tiges.
70 - 62
-
Mark that close to goal was way to stuffing easy
-
Not looking good....
-
Everyone has stopped
Where was the fwd to offer cotch an option from HB?? Good fwd stay a kick and a half in front not stuffing 120 meters
-
Falling down across HF. Crows are just rebounding every entry.
71 - 62
-
Eff me
-
stuff off!
-
We don't deserve to play finals
-
Goal to them from the boundary.
71 - 68
-
How he stuff do you blow a 40+ point lead..... How he stuff....
-
Typical.
-
Who is in at the centre bounces? Getting murdered! :help
-
How he stuff do you blow a 40+ point lead..... How he stuff....
They've tagged Cotch out of the game and no one else has stood up.
-
Their forward play compared to ours is 10x better
-
Jacko fumbles.
Titch drops the mark.
And then a miss target involving Jacko
That's why we can't kick a goal. Too many dumb mistakes ::).
-
Jackson a stuffing liability :banghead
-
Elton shows his stuff with a great mark, first disposal. Hopefully he kicks a goal in the last
-
why is it richmond that always give away games like this :(
-
Foley....
-
Elton finally got his first touch.
-
Enjoy your holiday Douglas.
-
Rushed point to us.
72 - 68
-
Apparently the breeze has picked up to the end the crows are kicking, let's see if we can hold on and make it count in the last
-
Cotchy just give knights a wack ? Might not be good :S
-
Jacko inside 50. Connors crumbs a point. Ah gtook just too long and got bumped as he kicked.
73 - 68
-
stuffing Connors! That would have been handy
-
This quarter will show how far we've come as a team this year. :gotigers
-
Balls on the line type final quarter coming up
top 8 chances on the line here, go hard or go home
-
stuffing Connors! That would have been handy
He was just trying to do the 'team thing'.
-
Black did the same thing to Picken in the face and got off.
3/4 time
Richmond 8.3 10.4 11.7-73
Adelaide 3.0 8.1 11.2-68
Goals: Riewoldt 3, Edwards 2, Martin 2, Nahas, Deledio, Cotchin, Connors.
-
Jackson a stuffing liability :banghead
Sorry D but crap, dead set crap, they have handballed to him with 3 opponents on him every time, what's he supposed to do??
The whole team is a liability ATM.....don't single Jackson out!
-
How much do you want it Tiges?!
-
It all starts in the middle. Since 1/4 time they have dominated running in numbers. Our forwards need to start contesting better, pressuring and hanging onto their marks FFS!
-
Cotch needs to lift this quarter and take us into the eight. Apparently we have the wind. BTW I think Dimma should change this up - take Miller off, go for another small on the forward line, and run it in.
-
Mentally weak.....ffs
-
Rance is getting absolutely stuffed on. Next bounce will determine the results I recon, need a quick one or we will lose.
-
Geez Tiges. Got to be better than that :banghead.
Cotch's kick went over Elton's head and then Houli drops a mark which Adelaide clear and goal with the ball gouing through griffs to Tippett.
Lids long bomb evens it up .
74 - 74
-
We have a 2-3 goal breeze, if we lose this NO EXCUSES, if we lose we are weak as pee with crows coming off a short break
-
naa game over, lost all confidence now
-
stuff we are pathetic when we are under the pump
-
Jackson a stuffing liability :banghead
Sorry D but crap, dead set crap, they have handballed to him with 3 opponents on him every time, what's he supposed to do??
The whole team is a liability ATM.....don't single Jackson out!
>:( how dare you
-
Dea marks but jsut gives it away kicking it ot the goalsquare.
Crows rebound again out of our forward line for a goal. Pathetic :banghead
74 - 80
-
Why the stuff do we always lose our feet???
You stuffing weak bastards
-
Rance just fall over at the contest?
-
stuff.......STAY ON YOUR BLOODY FEET.......
-
Game is gone now. We haven't created anything since the first quarter.
-
>:(
-
What the stuff with the no mark of jacks?????????
-
The free kicks are coming back. Mark or free kick to reiwoldt either way probably would have been a goal.
-
What was that Robbie!
Can someone hit a target and can someone mark inside 50? :banghead
That was free to Jack missed.
-
How many marks have we dropped since 1/4 time? :banghead
-
All of them
Pathetic
-
Get of Nahas >:(
-
Tearing us apart, we have dropped the ball and lost all of our structures, panic has set in, no way we can win this
-
Newy to Lids to Cotch to Maric on the wing, To Miller. Long to FF. Once again no Tigers at ground level :banghead
-
first time I've done one of these, quite amusing.
But not the game
-
Morris has lost the plot, worst 10 minute patch I've seen from him, deer in head lights
-
Morris dumped on his head. That's a spear tackle. Enjoy your holiday Walker yet Walker gets the free ::)
74 - 81
-
Footy gods get Walker. The stuffin wanker
-
We get a free kick paid against for being spear tackled?
-
Pathetic
-
Game over.
74 - 87
-
stuffing weak pricks losing their footing over and over again!!!!
-
Pathetic Conca doesnt come in next week die a horrible death rfc u are a stuffn disgrace in my eyes this week play elton and miller together wtf were u thinking stuffn idiots
-
This is discusting, NO stuffing EXCUSES......NONE!!!!
-
Weak Richmond, stuffing weak >:(
-
Wow what a disintegration
U can talk the talk all you want but bottom line is nothing has changed, we still go to pieces like stuffing girls when the heat turns up, this side would have nfi in september
Embarrassing
-
We get a free kick paid against for being spear tackled?
Ump doesn't know the rules but we really can't complain about the umpiring today. We've been just pathetic and mentally soft since 1/4 time.
-
YEAR OVER!
-
FOLEY...... VERY UNDERATED BY MANY ON THIS FORUM,,,
-
Where are the leaders!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Some of you guys are stuffing disgraceful fans. How about instead of hanging poo all over the club you offer some SUPPORT like your supposed to. Disgrace.
-
This is seriously hard to watch. Every kick forward seems to pinpoint an Adelaide player, without fail. How the hell did we go 38 points up again?
-
Wow what a disintegration
U can talk the talk all you want but bottom line is nothing has changed, we still go to pieces like stuffing girls when the heat turns up, this side would have nfi in september

Forward line play fails again. Once Jack is shut down no one else stands up. Isn't that what Miller is there for ::)
Elton ignores Naahs and misses :scream
75 - 87
-
does not sound like we want it on the radio
-
We don't want it as much. Same issue v Freo. >:(
Time to wield the axe

FOLEY...... VERY UNDERATED BY MANY ON THIS FORUM,,,
True.

They are running harder, who is fresher again? Lol

No hunger

Some of you guys are stuffing disgraceful fans. How about instead of hanging poo all over the club you offer some SUPPORT like your supposed to. Disgrace.
What do you want me to say we were up 30 points at 1/4 time kick like 3 goals for the rest of the match and u want me to stay positive go to bf we are here to vent our emotions and share our love if you dont like polarity go watch grass grow

Dead right mate!!!

If you want to waste your time supporting crap selection and peeweak play go ahead....but don't blame anyone who is not a lemming.
-
Yah clap them off after leading by 6 goals, playing for a chance to play finals and we kick 3 goals in 80 mins
-
Rance won't want to watch this game on Monday. Worst game I've seen him play :(
Point to the Crows.
75 - 88

I know we are upset but leave out the namecalling and infighting ppl.
Dusty goal :gotigers

Just kicked his 3rd :wallywink

This game has once again shone a light on the players that are letting us down. Win, lose or draw they have to go.
-
Some of you guys are stuffing disgraceful fans. How about instead of hanging poo all over the club you offer some SUPPORT like your supposed to. Disgrace.

Yeah we played stuffing poo after the 1st quarter. But whether the team wants to admit it or not they are still young and developing. If you were expecting finals this year your stupid. You can't say there hasn't been an improvement though. Last years side would flopped against saints, wouldnt have smashed hawks by 60 points, would have loss to GWS. There are positive signs mate.
-
They might rate Dea, but stuff me
-
Dea.keeps falling over the gives away the free of the game
-
Gave over now. Porplyzia has got them back and won the game for them.
81 - 94

-
FRIGGGIN DEA has cost us this game. :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead
-
The team must of just switched off after quarter time. No way they should be that spent after coming off the bye.
-
Our forward half play is so frustrating. Just not enough class and poise yet over 4 quarters to get over the line against the top sides.
This feels like a 10 goal loss because of what has happened since 1/4 time. We've had no plan B since Jack and Cotch were held.
81 - 100
-
Ahh the rage when we lose a game.
Yeah 30 years of it mate
-
What is Dimma's plan when we are losing control of a game????? Why not move Griff forward?
-
The team must of just switched off after quarter time. No way they should be that spent after coming off the bye.
Not good enough sadly.
Nice mark maric. Grigg goal :gotigers
87 - 100
-
Ahh the rage when we lose a game.
Didn't expect finals but we had multiple chances to set ourselves up for it this year and blew them ALL, now I don't know about u, but I find that unacceptable, it's the same all same all coming to the fore, our culture stinks and when it comes to the crunch and u have a chance to put the rubbish of the past 30 years behind but u continually go to pieces, it shows nothing has changed and we are simply a weak football club

Some of you guys are stuffing disgraceful fans. How about instead of hanging poo all over the club you offer some SUPPORT like your supposed to. Disgrace.
What do you want me to say we were up 30 points at 1/4 time kick like 3 goals for the rest of the match and u want me to stay positive go to bf you idiot we are here to vent our emotions and share our love if you dont like polarity go watch grass grow
Yeah we played stuffing poo after the 1st quarter. But whether the team wants to admit it or not they are still young and developing. If you were expecting finals this year your stupid. You can't say there hasn't been an improvement though. Last years side would flopped against saints, wouldnt have smashed hawks by 60 points, would have loss to GWS. There are positive signs mate.
hahaha get off the drugs
we are rubbish and marginally better than 2011
still a loser mentality exists at punt Road
4 losses inside 3 goals this year. theres your finals spot
-
The team must of just switched off after quarter time. No way they should be that spent after coming off the bye.
Not good enough sadly.
True but we should be able to give more of a yelp than what we have. As you said no plan B in the forward line once Jack got held. Long bombs to out numbered contest isn't going to work.
-
Ahh the rage when we lose a game.
Yeah 30 years of it mate
Should be used to it then ay?
Remember a press conference from Dimma after Saints game I think.. Everyone was on a high ( TIGES WILL MAKE FINALS THIS YEAR I LOVE THE CLUB YAY ) Dimma calms it and says there are still going to be rough games ahead of us, lose ones we should win blah blah. This is one of those games and now of course the fans turn against the club.
-
Any chance of taking a stuffing overhead mark?
-
I hope Martin and some of his friends are enjoying the weather out there because they are doing stuff all else....
Just kicked his 3rd :wallywink
WOW.....REALLY......he s on fire....easy goals at the end...geat stuff!
He's been stuffing good today
Nah but jackson has

Playing both Miller and Elton has been a disaster. Elton not ready for this level yet and Miller is useless. Kingy going down stuffed up our chance to sub either off.

Miller and Ellis can stuff off now. Newman is not a captains bootlace. Dea must be sent to re-education camp. Rance .....and so on and so on.

SIREN!. This one will hurt not because we lost but the way we lost after being up by 5 goals at 1/4 time. Another game lost having more scoring shots and inside 50s than the opposition :scream.

Mate of course we are stuffing better. The rage after losing a game can make us supporters such mungrels. Adelaide are a top 4 team this year. We just aren't there yet. Dimma tried to tell us fans not to get our hopes up about finals because he knew that we might just not be ready for them.

Facts are
Against the cats we had a strong breeze in the finals quarter and got over run
Against the eagles they were 2 rotations down and played an injured witches hat in the fwd line(Kennedy) and we still couldn't get over the line
Against the bombers nuff said
Against the crows, we have a Sri g breeze in the last and lose all semblance of structure, clearly panic stricken
I don't know about the rest of you, but I've seen enough, this club is no different now, to what it's been, we are a weak, useless, ball-less football club that simply CANNOT take the heat when the game goes up a notch. We talk up leaders and growth, but the true tests come in games like these and once again they let the club and fans down
I'm just over this poo, good enough perhaps,(as we can get close) but will never be good enough.
Funny thing is, if we had of tanked in the past, all those posters would be saying this is a result of a losers mentality - lmfao. There's ur loser mentality, it's stuffing ingrained, get stuffed

Listen im not just talking about this game im talking about the Freo and GWS game.
Missed tackles, players falling over WTF has happened in the last month
If Nought can make finals so can we. The issue is we have VFL players and a loser mentality to boot. 2 things that will stay with us every year until some changes happen to our list.

Footballers who go to ground are doing it because they are too scared to stay upright and risk taking a hit.
Sort of correct

Once again, parochial umpiring wins the stuffing day, Morris nearly gets his neck broke but no stuffing free, Riewoldt marks and gets some prick laying full length along his back after hanging off of him illegally, play on.. The maggots and the AFL can get stuffed imo.
And of course we went to poo and let them stuff us over on top of it all.

He ran right into him, morris seriously lost his composure today.....yes was unlucky with that incident but that didn't cost us the game!
-
We didnt lose today because of the umps We lost because we're not good enough to be finalists. We dont deserve finals. To many average players and some of the youngsters who get constantly supported as great players in the making look like they are just good ordinary players - one example is Ellis. Ellis can play football but he is slow for AFL footy, needs a 10 metre start to be able to get the ball away with confidence.

Just home from playing footy, told at 1/4 time we are over 30 pts up & to find out we lost l mean WTF EXPLAIN THANKS
-
What is Dimma's plan when we are losing control of a game????? Why not move Griff forward?
Get better at Plan A.
-
I know some will disagree with me here, but as soon as king went off i knew we would lose.
Something someone posted on here about stats when we win with him in the side stuck in my mind, and I wasnt wrong.
So dissapointed with the loss, miller deplorable and in fact questions have to be asked?? what exactly happened after halftime??
-
Gutted! To sit through that.
Most disappointing loss of the season. To play our best quarter of footy and then for the next 3 qtrs show nothing is disgusting
And don't get me started on the lack of leadership outside of Cotchin & Lids. :banghead
-
well l will judge it when l see the replay after sunday sippers :banghead but it surely dont sound good with my man Kingy going down :banghead

If you had of seen just the final score, you would have thought we played ok, but they were just to strong at home....
....but to play a first quarter like that, then early in the 2nd have Miller (not blaming just Miller) waltzing into an open goal and turn it over leading to 3 goals in 3 minutes, it completely undid all the hard work of the first quarter and basically made the game even again. :banghead
We even wasted chances in the first quarter. It could have been a 10 or 11 goal term.

Listen guys / gals
before we go off the rails & blame the players, Maybe we started great & then got out-coached in the next 3 quarters & playing on thier ground with thier crowd, l mean its not the 1st time Adelaide has come from behind in a big game.
They have been a form team prior to the Kangaroo defeat. Key injuries can affect a side. just my view from what l'm reading but until l see the replay l cant really say. :-\

Monkey take our advice and don't watch the replay. Go bog snorkeling instead. More likely to see something you like, and far less toxic to the system.
-
While I thought there were some areas we were out coached on.
The fact remains that as soon as adel were able to shut down Cotchin and Lids for most of the 2nd qtr we fell away terribly.
Said it before will say it again we cannot afford to have our really good players not playing well. We are found wanting.
Throw in the poor decision makers not only making bad decisions but executing their skills abysmally and you have a recipe for disaster. Not to mention the reasonable decision makers butchering the ball....
And don't get me started on the lack of leadership!!!

l have questioned Newman's leadership in many games this year including those games we have won. He is a main culprit of butchering the ball & his decision making at times cost many goals. Why he has never been dropped several times show our depth & quality around the club if we rely on players like him. his constant going backwards when we are in control of the game stuns me
-
forgot to mention in that he has no respect for his opponant in ANY game & his opponants do untold damage weekly.
-
Who were his opponenets in the last few games and how did they go with this untold damage
-
Ok boys I have calmed.
Outcoached and outplayed in the last 3 quarters. That is obvious. Move on.
I will rant again about Miller. Since that game changing moment early in the second couldv've seen us to a 39 point lead a forward line that kicked 8 goals in a quarter was found bereft of confidence.
When a player does that who plays in a position like that then that hurts and we saw even players like Deledio blazing away into the fwd line and Jack never got a sniff after that. Miller is no decoy he just takes up space and clogs us up and slows us down and neither tackles or get any second or third efforts.
Look at us v Hawthorn and St Kilda, no Miller. clogging us up. Open free flowing footy.
Could the footy gods also shine on us and why are sides in the last 3 weeks kicking 12.6, 12.2 and 17.4 against us in the last 3 weeks. Can't we in a clutch game like North or Carlton in the next few weeks kick 8.18 or something. FFS. Thats 41 goals 12 against that's around 80% conversion. Too much corridor scores against us and the arsey ones go through as well. This is the 6th game we have lost this year out of our 7 losses where we have had more or level scoring shots and the Collingwood game we had one less.
Morris played his worst game for the club today.
Rance was terrible. but Taylor Walker always seems to tear us a new ringhole.
Lids and Cotch quiet in the second half.
Did I mention Miller. Please don't ever play him again. The experiment is over play Elton a shocking Vickery is better and has more upside than a shocking Miller.
Our lower tier. Thought Connors handballing right on 3 qt time with no right foot getting us a goal but have just been a different final quarter. They didn't tire we just didn't step up and maybe just maybe we may have held on. Kingy getting injured didn't help meant we couldn't sub Miller.
The spear tackle on Morris don't get me started. Brodie Martin gave the run that Connors couldn't.
Finals chances whilst not shot are dwindling away. Would hate to lose to Carlton now given the way they are travelling but then again we played Essendon into form last year. Lets see what hapenns. Melbourne is no certainty and how much we've learnt will depend on how we play next week. Next six weeks have 50/50 written all over it some weeks.
Melbourne expect a win as with Gold Coast as Nought 50/50 as with Carlton Brisbane have the wood on them Dogs have the wood on us. Need to win a minimum of 5 to have a chance. Pressure is on them and they owe it to us but the chances are starting to dwindle.
-
The team must of just switched off after quarter time. No way they should be that spent after coming off the bye.
Not good enough sadly.
True but we should be able to give more of a yelp than what we have. As you said no plan B in the forward line once Jack got held. Long bombs to out numbered contest isn't going to work.
Miller kills the confidence of a fwd line and side when dawdling into an open goal from 40 metres does an about face due to lack of confidence responsibilty and ability and kicks sideways to a player who is marked by two and doesn't even give him a chance to get it. Would rather he have kicked it on the full having a shot than do that. Now there's your turning point. Many other reasons why we lost after that and we can elaborate on them but this one single piece of lunacy in the fwd line cost us a 39 point lead a spot in the 8 and probably the finals and gave us another close loss that until that point in time was the most furtherest thing from the mind.
-
forgot to mention in that he has no respect for his opponant in ANY game & his opponants do untold damage weekly.
:clapping opposition teams have been playing through newmans direct opponent for yrs. No accountability and gets slaughtered by opposition small fwds
-
We made some poor skill errors today in the 4 qtr.Houli didnt hold on to that tackle,Griffths poor read of play and Tuck also.
-
I believe Connors Miller and Houli should never be seen in a tiger guernsey again
They are list cloggers with limited ability
I blame Hardwick for today's loss for playing these types of players :
lumps, alcoholics and turnover kings
If B Gale was on the money he would get Malthouse and clear out Baby face Dimmer
No other club would ever put Miller or Connors in their team but Dimmer seems to find room for them each week
How does Tabouli get in the team before Reece Lightning Conca?
Tabouli and Newman can't make tackles stick yet they get games.
We're unprofessional and we need to make Chimp Cotchin captain and get rid of all our sad recent history
A Pick 55 is captaining our club He's played 200 games and never played in a final
We are an embarrassment to ourselves let alone the football fraternity
Dimmer get fair dinkum or get out otherwise you'll be another Spud and Terry saga
I've had enough honorable losses for three decades
These losses are really DIShonourable because you stuff it up in the selection room every time in crunch games
You're dishonest to the tiger fans and stakeholders so wipe that smile of your face and increase your professionalism because enough is enough

correct
Its not one single thing but his performance as a stopper is questionable, let alone leadership.
I cant see Houli and Newman playing in the same team and our club being entrenched in the 8.
1 must go

Well l just watched the game & here is my report.
We were simply beaten by a better team on the day. A Adelaide team which is playing where its position sits on the ladder compared to a rebuilding Richmond side who has only new facilities & are on track of the rebuilding.
A few bad umpire mistakes but we also got away with a few. rewoldt not been payed a mark at the start of the last quarter could be costly & the tackle on Morris should has been a reversed free kick after he was caught holding the ball. Maybe a better decision would have been a ball up to make it fair.
Kingy going down when in good form maybe played a small part.
l aint blaming any players or coaching for that lose as we were simply beaten by a better side on the day & l think both teams played well & were forced into mistakes. Still must iron out our hospital kicks & handballs.
l think dropping Batchlor who would have been a better matchup on Walker could be a mistake by the selection panel.
So thats it, they closed us down in our running style & forced us to kick over the mark giving them time to push back.
l reckon that was a good game which we will learn from.
Would like to see Griffiths moved to CHF & l must say l have seen Miller kicking for goal going offline too many times this year. his failing to make the distance from 40-45 out & his decision making sometimes not good. Its time to play his contract out at Coburg.
Lets do better next week Tigers :gotigers

Good if you watched the replay who was newmans opponent and what untold damage did they do. Feel free to go back over the last few games.
But dont go back in the last few years because that is why morris was recruited.
-
Newman rarely has an opponent you fools.
-
forgot to mention in that he has no respect for his opponant in ANY game & his opponants do untold damage weekly.
:clapping opposition teams have been playing through newmans direct opponent for yrs. No accountability and gets slaughtered by opposition small fwds
Why do you think we recruited Morris. RFC realised a hole and they filled it.
For the record I am not a Newman fan either, the sooner Cotch is in there the better our club will be.

thats correct cause he has little respect for opponants & is continuely turning up late to the contest :lol

He was on Petrenko 2nd half yesterday and did ok but my issue is when the wave was coming in the 3rd he needed to show something leadership wise and didn't
But he wasn't alone
We have a 5 man leadership group. Outside Cotchin and to a lesser extent Deledio they other 3 didn't appear to show leadership. Jacko had the opportunity to attempt a smother in the 2nd qtr I think it was and just didn't
It is just so frustrating. You see other teams and their leaders (eg Swans, Bombers) and just think "what if"
-
In the last quarter when the game was still up for grabs we were not intrested, we gave up tackling pressure and crumbled under pressure. With 10 mins to go we were 12 pts down, perhaps at the G the crowd would have got them over the line.
Maybe next time

Miller was on some kid whose name escapes me
As for Elton being on Miller I know you don't want to do it because it doesn't suit your Miller bashing but Elton being left on Rutten is solely the fault of the Coach and not Brad Miller
Said somewhere that Hardwick should have either moved Miller to Ruttan or plonked Elton in the goal square and told him not venture outside the 20-30m area thereby taking ruttan out of the play.
Ruttan was way too big for Elton but I reckon the kid would have learnt alot from it though

Shows how much Adelaide rate Brad Miller.

your a nutcase, one minute your talking about Newman then your on about Morris then Cotchin
l have added you to my ignore list ;D never to hear from you again. :shh you want answer then watch the game & answer them yourself.

Pretty glaring that the hole they have is the one our captain is supposed to be filling. Agree on cotch, their are 2 leaders at our club cotch and lids, You could probably throw Maric in that too, everyone else... nada

For the last 10 mins, thought we should have thrown Griffiths forward, Grimes on Walker, Rance on Tippett and hoped like hell Griffiths could grab one. Might have made Rutten more accountable too.

Defenders play on forwards. Not the othet way around.

l would have Millar playing VFL & Griffiths at CHF & Batchlor left in the side, we missed the Batch mongrel & he would have been the Walker matchup in my view. Selectors had it wrong. rance was falling over himself at times & was having a ugly day. You think the coach needs to make some changes during the game. Why he didn't. l like the media to ask him about some of his matchups.

Forgot to add the Tippet was kept fairly quite for most of the day

The key to beating rutten is speed. He is very good at spoiling and one on one but is not the quickest. Adelaide is a good team. They are always hard at it. We lost to a team that is at a stage more advanced than us. That is no disgrace. The fact that we started so well and didn't win is disappointing but at least unlike sides in the past we were not thrashed. I am sure most of you remember those horrific thrashings in the early 90s I do and I will never forget them

Dropping batch was equally as stupid as dropping conca

How is Dimmer going to develop Miller?nearing 30 and a lump
Come on Dimmer no more scratched records you messed up at selection and you got the big dissection
Stop sounding like Terry and Spud and get the right guys into the team
No more Melbourne rejects from now and beyond
PS: By the way grow some strength and get into the players You're a coach not a social worker

Just watching the AFL Insider replay. They showed we won in all key areas... except for scoring from inside 50s.
David King also showed some great behind the goal footage of the second quarter. Jack just parks himself on the half forward 50 line, while Ivan was working the ground from wing to wing. Even when the play came our side of halfway, you could see Jack move back to the square while Miller was creating an option by leading through the 50 on the fat side.
