Our defeat of port. We played well but they seemed down.
Was it a lucky win, a solid win or an amazing win?
-
Solid

Solid

Luck in that the scheduling meant we played Port whilst they were in a lull in form.
Solid in the four quarter effort presented and how we absorbed their pressure and our better composure. FWIW even if we played like this last September against them the result would have been the same. To make tonight count back it it up on the big stage next two weeks. :thumbsup
-
Definitely not lucky given the umps in our forward line gave us nothing. We worked hard for today's win. Solid, disciplined and deserving.
-
To be quite honest everyone has worked Port and Hinkley, one trick ponies
-
6 games ago 1 kick from a flag and pulling our pants down, SOLID in my book.
Bogie man game we should pull their pants down again to back it up, but never know with us!

no plan b?
incapable of doing anything from the coaches box when players aren't on ?
-
Solid
We stuck to a plan that worked a treat
Yes Port's not playing well but the pressure we applied meant they continually made mistakes
And BTW they appear to have no plan B ;D
-
Sack Hinkley
-
Unfair CUB. I have it on good authority that hinkleys unicorn flew out of the stables this morning with his plan b still in the saddle bags
-
its a win that showed attributes I have wanted to see from a Richmond team for many years....Guts,determination,and never say die attitude.If I see this every week I will die a happy man.
whether it was a fine spectacle and whether the ball was delivered lace out etc I couldn't give a flying toss bag to quote Malcolm blight
-
Solid, like my stools.
-
Amazing win given what they did to us in the finals.
-
At 4&4 its just a win
-
Solid.
Nothing lucky or amazing tonight. Just pure blue collar footy. Some ugly but done nonetheless.
-
If this is the "Richmond way" I would like to see more of it please.
I will also be lifting my expectations for next week and expect to see the same level of intensity so we can spoil Fletcher's milestone party.
-
I am not a fan or believer of Hardwick being the man to take us to the next level but credit where credit is due - he coached the pants off Hinkley today.
-
Solid win for a top 4 team, good win for a top 8 team and a great win for an ordinary team looking to build their season.
Funny how some posters on this thread rate the win like we should be a top 4 side but claim we arent a top 8 threat based on list management, recruiting, coaching or game plan. :huh
-
It was a performance that wins Finals.
-
Really good win especially after weathering that all out assault from Port in the third.
-
Play that style of football and we will win some big games. I loved it. Tackling and pressure some of the best I've seen from a Richmond team.
Next two weeks the big tests now to see if we have really moved forward or not.
-
Amazing win considering how we've been playing (i.e. poor football for 3 quarters and REALLY poor for the other). We stuck fat and barely lost a quarter against a team that, given the time and space, would still be able to rip you apart :clapping

We didn't give them an inch , raised a few eyebrows it did , they're still talking about it in footy circles :shh

Solid win. We never allowed them to play their game. :gotigers
-
Thought it was an excellent win. To beat Port in Adelaide wiith their season slipping away plus Cornes retirement would have seen them up and about. Great stuff by the Tiges.
-
It's looking more and more like a season defining win (with the magpies one). I'm hoping we aren't having a Norf season (was it last year?) where we win the tough ones in top 8 but struggle to beat the stragglers.
If we're not 10&5 in 3 weeks, we will know more
-
Well according to Mark Maclure, we only beat the Swans because our shocking first half fooled Sydney into a false confidence and so they took us lightly after half-time ::) :wallywink.

If we were so shocking , why weren't they 10 goals up at half time

Don't you think we are good for actually being able to kick goals when given the chance? Poor kicking is poor football.
Also quite funny that against all those teams we had more scoring shots. So if we did kick as "poorly" as them we still would of won. Oh well any excuse to get you through the week while you wait for another Richmond loss

Don't know why I even tried, it's like talking to a brick wall :banghead :banghead
Btw Grigg is no good I have no idea why you rate him so highly

The last 6 weeks there have been no lucky wins. We have a group playing a very hard brand of defensive footy all over the ground and we are winning on merit. Premierships are built from this type of group and team behavior. That is all :cheers

Pretty dumb way to look at the universe
If a few kicks go in instead of missing, the momentum changes and the rest of the game changes
-
Lucky they weren't kicking straight we would of lost

Today wasn't a lucky win either. We just played bad and still won. Another 4 points in the bag. :clapping

And they were lucky as we missed set shot after set shot. Today we won because we outlasted them that's all. When the game was their to be won, GWS faltered and we played well in the last quarter.

Still a worry can't beat a team of 21 year olds missing best playes in key position by much

Don't forget there poor kicking. Couple of goals for them and we would of lost momentum and lost

considering that you first stated we were lucky because of the oppositions missed shots, this would have to be the most inane convoluted logic i have read in a long, long time.
-
I thought GWS played pretty well. I thought we defended and contested well. Our delivery inside 50 and set shots were terrible.
An ugly win but our last quarter was solid, so I'll go for solid bordering on lucky. Shed and Rance were outstanding.

As long as teams continue missing from 20 out we got nothing to worry about eh
-
that makes as much sense as the rest of what you are saying, i suppose George.
-
The. Argument opposition sides missing easy goal have not been of assistance to us this season is strange, Fred
-
The argument that we were lucky because the oppostion miss goals, when we actually have more scoring shots, and miss our own momentum killing easy goals is about as bizarre as it gets.
-
I remember a time , a time when we had blokes like Thursfield , McGuane , Moore in the backline . A bloke like Morton as the Key forward when we used to get orgasmic over honourable losses.
Gee we pushed Sydney , Gee we only lost to Geelong by 20 points blah blah blah.
GWS had an honourable loss on the weekend . We beat them despite not getting out of second gear for 3 quarters .
Times have changed .

Solid and mature for mine. Loved the way the intensity lifted and once it did, they were no match for us. Just wish we could find that level of consistency in effort and application bc if we do we're a show against anyone
-
Lucky again the opposition. Didnt have the kicking boots on

Lazy win.

When Hampson kicked it into man on mark I was thinking might not end well

Scrub all recordings of what was a shocking game, take the 4 points and move on to next week.
ps. Laugh at Collingwood and Carlton losing again ;D.

I went off when that happened. Not because of the kick into the man, but the decision to call play on in the first place. Hampson had barely got back behind the mark and hadn't moved one centimetre off his line before the maggot called play on and he was left with bugger-all room to kick when his opponent rushed him.

Geez is the Lord

Carlton were lucky we played so crap and that they were not just smashed completely.

yeah why the stuff was it called play on, he had barely started to go back for his kick, he didn't try to play on and the ump stuffed him over

Unlucky we missed so many shots. Score should've been 21.0.126 beat Carlton 5.11.41 if we had our kicking boots on.
Do you only pay attention to the goals they miss?

You can't get the concept if they were 7.2 instead of 2.7, things might not turn out identical?
-
what about if we had kicked 7-2?
or if your auntie had balls?

Then it would of been 71-44 and we still win. It's pointless saying hypotheticals. How many of their extra scores were as a result of them having the ball pinned in there forward 50 due the previously scored behind? How would we of responded to them kicking a goal rather than a behind, perhaps we pull our heads in? Why weren't we just as unlucky? We could of kicked even more goals than behinds?
Aren't we better than them due to our better kicking? The whole point of the game is to kick goals and that's what we did. They were poo for missing.
52 inside 50's to 36 and 21 to 16 scoring shots. Maybe we were unlucky because we should of scored more by all our extra inside 50's?

Who would of thought , after all the humiliation caused at the hands of Carlton over the recent past -that a 5 goal victory would not be worth a second viewing.
But here we are . Shocking game to watch.

I watched it again. Always take a win over the Blues. Quite liked winning all 4 quarters too. Kicking for goal in second half probably costs us making it a 7 or 8 goal win.

Geez we are lucky they are kicking poorly

great win playing sustainable finals football, defense wins flags and we are getting to that point where we can win the whole thing if we can continue down this path.

Nah we just lucky we kicked straight

we were just lucky we played well.
if we hadnt things may have been different.

It was a significant win

The pressure was pretty amazing
