Sunday 3:20 Marvel
This has been my hardest year ever with footy stupid rules stupid timeslots to much PC crap our fall from grace
Made all our home games bar a couple
just so disenchanted with the whole schmozzle
Pass again - working in between nights for Hawks match might make an effort
Definitely be at the last game - to see the era finally put to rest
And kinda looking forward to a rebuild and seeing if we can still be the Mighty Tigers
-
If you’re still invested in this season - I take my hat off to you .
Think most of us are hanging out for the trade period and draft night .
The only interest I have is hoping Essendon and Carlton bomb out and miss finals .
-
Been a hard year personally, scheduling, health, weather.
Don't think I've ever attended less games.
Not from want of love for my club though.
I'll try to get there for the last 2 games. There may be some champions to farewell. Hope you all join me.

Richmond v St Kilda Preview
Tom Williams
SEN
8 Aug 2024
Although St Kilda is coming off a heavy 85-point loss to Brisbane last week, the recent form of the Saints has been pleasing having won three of their last five matches.
With impressive wins over Sydney, West Coast and Essendon all coming in July, it seems easier to trust the Saints than it is to trust Richmond this week. That is despite a couple of horror losses when scoring just 39 against both the Crows and the Lions.
The Tigers seem to struggle at Marvel Stadium with their last victory under the roof coming under Damien Hardwick in Round 9, 2021.
Adem Yze’s men have not been on the winners’ list since their clash with Adelaide in early July and currently sit on the bottom of the ladder with just two wins for the season.
After a big week at Punt Road on the back of Richmond great Dustin Martin’s retirement, we may see the Tigers come out firing... or could it have drained the playing group emotionally.
Regardless of which way it goes, the Saints should be able to come away with the four points.
Tip: St Kilda by 19 points.

Part of me is dreading the trade period only because I'm concerned we will cut too deep
Looking forward to the draft, finally early picks
I've been to every game in Victoria (h&a) and travelled interstate twice, so I suppose I've remained "invested".
But have walked away too many times this year questioning effort and that's been the hardest part for me at least

WP , nice work, hats off to you and your passion.
Let’s hope we can turn it around next year.

Smith is the sub

The Dow brothers, some bruise free footy between those two
-
Maybe over critical.
But watching both warm ups. Tigers are walking between drills, very little if at all talking. Saints jpgging, bouncing on toes, yelling out names, pats on back.
I get our season is over, but it's interesting the little things leave you when you cease to be a premiership contender.
-
Dunno why the roof is shut on a day like today.
Hate all the lights bring on.

I noticed that too. Looked very very flat and the same for the start of the game. There’s plenty for the young guys to play for here…
-
Our brilliant tackling technique on display once again :facepalm
-
That was a great solo effort by Rioli then on the wing :clapping.
-
Well done Bauer :clapping.
-
More Bolton magic
-

Half the reason we shouldn't trade him IMO.
Other half being his leadership.
Unless they want to offer something really silly.

3-6 Frees

Quarter time
Richmond 3.1-19
St Kilda 4.1-25
Goals: Bauer, Koschitzke, Ralphsmith
Competitive but the same issues to blame - not protecting the defensive side of stoppages and contests, poor inside 50s/lack of mid-forward connection, poor skills under no pressure, and poor tackling technique.
Saints are just flooding and hitting us on the counter feeding off our shallow or poor F50 entries.
-
Gone full spud mode now :help.
-
Here comes our standard quarter of non competitive football. This will blow out now.
-
Paddy Dow running around dominating just shows how crap we are :help.
-
We are lacking so much talent it’s scary
-
Boggles the mind how a bloke of Ryan's size can be such a gutless pussy.
He's jogging around as if he's run a marathon too.
-
Frees: 3 - 8 ::)
-

A lack of intensity and pressure too. This is bruise free footy.
-
Frees: 3 - 8 ::)
And we haven’t played with enough physicality to give that many away.

Bauer is one of the few Tigers that can actually make the distance from 50. Nice goal :clapping.

Just waiting for clawski to criticize his lack of involvement with only 3 disposals (tongue in cheek claw, all good).
Might end up with 4 goals but only 6 disposals :lol
-
Half-time
Richmond 3.1 5.2-32
St Kilda 4.1 7.4-46
Goals: Bauer 2, Koschitzke, Ralphsmith, Bolton.
Lucky to still be in the game on the scoreboard. The Saints were allowed to move the ball with ease under no pressure.
The one positive is Bauer.
-
I've been critical of Banks and Trezise in the past but have to saw they look like they have a place on the list.
-
Umps are sucking off the Saints. No surprise there
I’d take a witches hat over Miller and Ryan. Both poohouse.
-
We had just 4 tackles in that 2nd qtr :P.

And there's another charity goal to the opposition just as we get close :facepalm.
-
That kick from Vlastuin...
...clearly tanking
-
Repeat entries but we are such a pack of spuds we can't score a goal. Then the typical freebie goal at the other end :banghead.
-
Ryan is the most uncoordinated player I’ve seen. Just jumps at the ball with his hands flailing around everywhere. Never looks a chance of taking a mark
-
Just started watching. Hopper thinks he's the Bont. Just do the simple stuff you hack.
-
A stupid teacher can only produce stupid students.. they play stupid because they are taught stupid .
-
Our forward entries are crap but our forward set-up is laughable for the way we bomb it into our F50. If you're going to blindly bomb it to the talls then at least have our smalls front and square at the contest. The Saints small and midsized defenders must be thinking how easy is this without a Tiger near them once the ball hits the ground.
And the Saints run it down the other end for another goal ::).
-
Marshall has taken 9 marks. :help
I guess that what a ruckman should be doing. :rollin
-
Hopper boy o boy. He is at the Thomson Dow level.

Well he does have baby giraffe disease. We have him for three more years :rollin

3/4 time
Richmond 3.1 5.2 7.5-47
St Kilda 4.1 7.4 11.5-71
Goals: Bauer 2, Bolton 2, Ralphsmith 2, Koschitzke.
If there's a game that sums up our season and how crap we are it's this one. We are our own worst enemy. On top in general play and inside 50s especially that 3rd quarter and yet still end up further behind on the scoreboard due to our spudness :facepalm.
-
Been a huge rap for Ben Miller all season but he's been terrible today. Pointing fingers, constantly dropping his head when things haven't gone his way
Terribly disappointing
-
Our fitness is deplorable.
We need to get Innes back and pay him whatever he wants.
-
Frees: 6 - 15
Typical fluro maggots rarely spot any frees for us ::).
-
Smith subbed on for Samson.
-
Hopper boy o boy. He is at the Thomson Dow level.
In what way?
Can’t possibly mean in regards to hardness/toughness
Because Hopper at least has a crack .. Dow, he’s as hard as a soggy blancmange
-
Why play Ryan if you’re gonna sub him. You know what you’re gonna get from him.
-
Commentators saying Prestia has signed a 1 year. Did i miss that?
-
Nankervis monstered again by a kid.. and so many think he is a great captain and ruckman. Does my head in .

He is really poor. Since our flags he has been one of the biggest disappointments for mine.
He is not a leaders a hole.
-
Jayden Short is so weak in the contest
-
We miss so many easy goals it's embarrassing. Just further illustrates how standards have dropped. It's so amateurish.
-
A lot of finger pointing from all players, senior and not. There is certainly quite a bit of disharmony with this group. Not much encouragement or enthusiasm
Yze has his work cut out for him this off season

Was just very lucky to ruck to a great midfield.. Sydney got rid of him for a reason. He is undisciplined, makes stupid decisions so uses bravado to distract all of how incompetent he is. Too short, too slow and TOO STUPID.. but a hot WAG . THATS IT

Nank's been beaten easily by Marshall today, but you don't end up a 3-time premiership player through "luck".

The best part of that game was the end

Final Score
Richmond 3.1 5.2 7.5 7.9-51
St Kilda 4.1 7.4 11.5 15.9-99
Goals: Bauer 2, Bolton 2, Ralphsmith 2, Koschitzke.
Enjoy the meaningless win Saints. Another mid-ladder finish to keep you in mediocrity land.
Anyway, a junk late season game. Two more and this crap season is finally over. Bring on the draft.
-
Our fitness is deplorable.
We need to get Innes back and pay him whatever he wants.
While I get your point Innes left for the top job at another Club, when there wasn't the same vacancy at Richmond. He is currently contracted I can't see the Swans letting him go
-
Miss by prestia sums up the day.
So glad we gave him another year - can't wait for him to ping another hammy in the pre-season and play 12 games of similar quality at the expense of a promising kid... :clapping
-
For 3 qtrs I couldn't question the effort
Last qtr hard not to question effort
And as an aside, most bruise free game I've witnessed in a long. Bruise free footy from both sides
-
Effort in the last quarter was deplorable. Delivery into forwardline woeful. Season can't end quick enough.
-
Our Captain was pathetic today. Got pantsed by Marshall and those 2 frees in final qtr were unforgivable
Today's "effort" is the reason I constantly question his leadership

Yes you can, he is living proof!!! Our midfield made him look ok. He has since been exposed. Too slow, no agility, too STUPID, undisciplined but know it all's are blinded by their black and yellow glasses. Grigg won a premiership as a back up ruckman, I guess that makes him an all-time amazing ruck

Nank was a beast through our dynasty years. His ground level and around the ground work were pivotal.
Also who is this kid that he got monstered by? Is it 28 year old Rowan Marshall or did the saints play another ruck that I’m not aware of - genuine question as I missed the game.
-
yes its marshall and he is a great ruckman. Shouldn't judge Nank on todays game, but over the last 2 years he has been very average, and not a great leader.
-
It is very tough to watch.
2 wins and 19 losses.
Is this our worst season since when? 2004? 2007?

Oh I agree but let’s not rewrite history and say he was average during the dynasty.

First time I’ve seen someone 28 years old and barely a year younger described as a ‘kid’ btw :snidegrin

I never said that as I don't think it's true. He has just lost his way IMO since I think 2022. There were some games that year i thought we really can't rely on him anymore.

Yeah it wasn’t your comment FJ.
Anyway I think he’s the least of our worries, at least positionally. Agree his captaincy needs to end as of the final siren against the suns R23. Otherwise he’s the best ruck we have and it isn’t close imo.

The beast that gets pantsed by young developing stuffing now.. you go ahead and live in the past. He was very fortunate to have an awesome midfield around him
-
Yesterday's game was the lowest tackle game since 2006.
Our pressure rating was just 161.
David King on First Crack said certain Tigers have checked out and the Club should be mature enough to sit down with those that want to leave and not play them if they aren't willing to give their all.
-
Got a few bluggers out there continuing let us down.
-
Yesterday during the second quarter - I fell asleep and woke up during the half time break.
I don’t believe that has ever happened to me before.
However I am enjoying Carlton , Essendon, Collingwood and Fremantle imploding - those flogs missing the 8 and us having pick 1 plus a potential gluttony of first rounders makes this season worthwhile.
-
There was some good signs with our kids , a little bit of hope, we just need to kids who are stars to build a side around . And I can’t see us improving next year , but sometimes you get what you need not what to want.
I think our forward line is what is killing our hopes this year , they are not competitive, and I blame our recruitment , even some gurus on this site saw it coming , you build your side from 2 potential star key forwards, we have none that are reliable!

All good mate. Still getting a good laugh at you calling 28 year old gun ruck Rowan Marshall a ‘kid’. :snidegrin :snidegrin :snidegrin

There I was thinking Marshall was probably a top 5 ruck in the AFL or at least top 10.
I reckon Nank wouldn't be top 20, maybe 30+.
-

No no, just a young kid learning his craft at the tender age of 28 and 130+ games….

He's also kinda tall.
Tall blokes take longer to develop.
He'll probably come into his own in a year or two?

Let’s not rush it. Give him until his mid 30s then we can stop referring to him as a kid for sure I rekn.
