Richmond vs St Kilda @ the MCG --- Round 22, 2016

[The Machine]

Love our way of scoring!

It is so disheartening watching Ellis, Grigg run around in circles and seeing Houli give the ball to team mates who are under pressure it is turned over own the bloody footy Houli Seeing any player move the ball forward with purpose is so unusual it takes you back Major changes will happen and I cant wait for them

The only reason it's not a major rebuild is because we have a decent top 5.

Everything else is garbage.

Whether that's to do with a clueless recruiting department or just that dimmer does their heads in
Trying to iinstill an Impossible game plan, the fact is we are just wasting another two years with him calling the shots.

Relax everyone dimma has this under control.  Can't you see him relaxed and having a larf.  You blokes worry too much.  Chicken littles lol.  He's working on our defensive structures now can't you see teams can't score big scores against us.  During the preseason he'll work on our fast ball movement, offense and goal scoring.  Come rd 1 we'll go BANG BOOM.  No one will see it coming.

If Andrew Moore is retained for next year then the club is not serious about having on field success. Deplorable footballer.

Richmond's first half was below AFL standard

At half-time the Tigers had kicked two goals – including a goalless second quarter, laid 18 just tackles and had conceded 28 inside 50s, but managed just 12 itself, the second-lowest total at half-time for the season. It had 11 players who had not laid a tackle with Alex Rance, Jack Riewoldt, Dustin Martin and Brandon Ellis among those without a tackle to their name at half-time. Richmond showed some spirit after the main break to finish the game with six goals (with two kicked inside the final minute), 42 tackles and 40 inside 50s to lose by nine points. On the evidence presented on Saturday, the Tigers look years away from finals.

Some on here didn't watch the olympics because of some imposters yet i can't fathom how they then can  watch 2 hours  from this pathetic excuse of a footballer. Yesterday was a comedy show and this bloke was the headline act.

He is the worst footballer I have ever seen in a long while and dimwit will depart this club in a worst state than what spud did. Difference between the 2 is we embarrassed the blues when it counted

Dimwit and Moore. FO

Oh dear should l force myself to watch the game just to see the comedy  When are they replaying on Foxtel

[Yeahright]

Got to say, Todd Elton showed signs today.

How was his defensive efforts? Learn a lot from playing back for 4 years? Was always a forward and should have always been played forward

Tigers had ‘heads in their bums’: Cotchin

Herald Sun
22 August 2016

RICHMOND captain Trent Cotchin has delivered a savage assessment of the Tigers’ nine-point loss to St Kilda on Saturday, describing their performance as “insipid”.

The Tigers laid only 18 tackles in the first half and a season-low 44 for the game.

Cotchin said he was feeling “pretty flat and negative” after the loss and fired a broadside at some of his teammates.

“To come out the way we did and play — it sort of looked a lot of our players had their heads in their bums — so that’s really embarrassing from a team point of view,” Cotchin said on Fox Footy.

“From the captain down we need to be better than that.”

Richmond scored 44 points for the match, the third time in five weeks they have failed to hit the 50-point mark.

Cotchin said there was a lot of encouraging young talent at the club but believed some of the Tigers’ senior players could be more consistent.

He said it was important to finish the season off strongly against the Swans on Saturday at the MCG.

“We challenged late but the reality is the game was done and they (Saints) were far better,” he said.

“We still need to get better, we are miles off it at this stage.

“We have some really impressive young guys, our senior players are playing good footy buts it’s inconsistent footy and that’s the challenge for our group.

“If we want to be a team that takes big steps forward next year, then we need to play really well against outstanding opposition next week in Sydney.”

Coach Damien Hardwick admitted the “intensity and effort was off” against St Kilda and demanded a lift at the main change.

“We spoke to them at half-time and were pretty firm that we needed to respond and get our game up and going,” Hardwick said.

“It is a long season, especially with some sides playing for not much now … but we still expect better effort.”

OK lets watch this replay & see how bad things were on Saturday 

[TigerMonk]

Edwards cant even kick 40 metres directly in front of goal seriously got to be traded or delisted

[TigerMonk]

Umpiring shocking. They get paid a free after they slide into the legs of Vlossy WTF are them umps on. Cost a goal also what BS

[TigerMonk]

Catch watch anymore. You cant go forward & kick goals if you have all your players pushed up to defense. Lloyd down past CHF that is rubbish coaching
