Judd tonight said the game has moved on and clubs are deliberately maintaining possession while coming out of D50 and players' footskills (eg: at West Coast and Collingwood) are now so much better that they are denying Richmond from tackling them. Richmond's 'messy' manic style of gameplan applying forward pressure that won them a flag is now outdated.
Lloyd added that Richmond's small forwards aren't even doing the latter forward pressure anymore.

Sounds like what they were saying on FC in 2016, saying we would have to rebuild, game plan won't work etc.
FFS, how would West Coast go without McGovern and Kennedy in the team? Stop writing us off when our side is depleted to the hilt
-
He has a point, rule changes have also helped
-
Reckon Judd is wrong
Think game plan still does work
We aren’t bringing the ball to ground thus small forwards are being starved
How many intercepted marks to the Pies have the previous week ??
With the inclusion of Caddy and I would look at a genuine stopper In Townsend
Interesting the inclusion of Lynch has meant entry of ball inside F50 has changed a lot

The players are wrongly thinking that Lynch will mark everything that is being bombed in.....

I know it’s hard atm but I have all the faith in the boys
Just gotta fight like hell the next month or 2 and stay thereabouts
Wouldn’t it just be the best to come flying home and stick it up everyone again
-
Can't remember many entries into 50 by us recently to a leading small forward, seems everything is being bombed in to Lynch but once the ball hits the ground our usual forward efficiency in creating a scoring opportunity seems to have deserted us
-
Don't worry, once Grigg comes back both the forward entry and ruck issues will be sorted... :shh

:shh :shh

To me it looks like our smalls are getting sucked too far up the ground and are out of position when the ball comes in.
It looks like they are not working hard enough to get back.
The Collingwood game was the worst as their backman seemed to hold their positions and let our smalls work further up the ground. Same thing happened in the prelim last year.
Both games they were totally dominant coming out of our forwardline.

The problem that I can see is that there is no manic pressure at all rather than the plan is outdated..... :whistle

Think the argument is that there’s no manic pressure because teams have worked out how to get around it. I’m of the same belief of you that it’s our players not bringing the heat but I guess we’ll know for sure in 3-5 games time.

Judd was a great player, but that is all I'll give him.
-
I have time for Judd as he has caused the Blues to bottom out for an extended period
-
They have never coached , but have a little truth to what they are saying. We need to play a tight man on man to bring the ball into dispute instead of playing zones, when in dispute the manic attack works.

You can't give him credit for that. He was just an instrument, it took the Blues to have all the off field pieces in place and totally focussed to achieve that. It is a team game after all.

Like I said
Not over yet bunnies :clapping

First time this year our small forwards applied the intensity and manic pressure we've been wanting and it's paid off.
-
Mastermind Judd also made the following predictions.
Premiers... Melbourne
Wooden spoon ....St Kilda
Brownlow.... Clayton Oliver.
Coleman..... Buddy.

Bit of a dilemna I reckon....clearly this is still our one wood as the commentators fashionably say but IMO we need to keep Balta in the side even with Riewoldt back (and considering were not really playing another tall in lieu of Rance atm what difference does it really make anyway?) and we need to start seriously weighing what Castagna's defensive pressure brings against how much of a liabilty he is in attack...better sides than Sydney will make us pay...to me Butler - as poor as he's also been is a good compromise...also not sure we can continue to keep carrying two short players with a relative lack of pace in Higgins & Baker in the same side....Higgins is the better player but Baker is clearly playing the better football atm.....and we also have to fit Cotchin back in.... :shh

Judd and co. tonight on Footy Classified praised our pressure being back.
Average pressure rating
vs Coll & GWS 1.62
vs Port & Swans 1.74

Tigers return to “Richmond-like” pressure
By SEN
21 April 2019
Richmond was back to its best in their [Saturday night] victory over Sydney at Marvel Stadium.
The Tigers accounted for the Swans by 22 points with the win made possible by their customary high-pressure game style which forced turnovers at every opportunity, much like the 2017 premiership season.
Midfielder Dion Prestia admitted it was a focus for the Tigers to get back to those harassing ways.
“I think they smashed us in clearances but it was how we were able to pressure them after that clearance,” he said on AFL Nation post-match.
“We used the ball through the corridor a lot better than what they were able to do.”
Asked which particular statistics the side values the most, Prestia maintains it is still the maniacal pressure the club has become known for in recent years.
“Ours would be our front-half turnovers. That’s really what we talked about,” he added.
“We knew they would give us an opportunity with those short kicks and we were able to expose it.
“We aren’t a high-possession team. It’s all pressure, pressure and having everyone get rewarded on the scoreboard eventually.
“The pressure from our small blokes is amazing. I still think we’re the best by a long way with our pressure.”
