I'm tired and losing my voice but very happy.  Managed to sort of catch up with WP & bg25 (thank goodness for mobile phones) and Mopsy and his lovely wife.  The boys stood firm and wouldn't let Brisbane in.  Funny to see all the kids (and big kids) having a kick after the game.
You were on the tellie
Really?  Are you sure?  We were sitting near the boundary but under the stands.  Probably me trying to kick the footy after the game and almost taking some kid's head off - lol
Last quarter.  I think it was when Jack kicked a goal, but could be wrong

I don't understand the constant attacks on Tambling and Farmer  :o

Tambling has grown a massive pair this year and is winning his own ball, shepherding, blocking, tackling and playing an extremely team orientated game this year. Sure it means he doesn't have the ball in his has as much but his importance to the team should be measured on these elements.

Farmer has played the small backman role well this year and improved every game. He is one of the biggest kicks in the team and set up two goals this week from these long kicks. Having him running out of defence along with Newman, Connors and Lids and kicking these long, direct passes to our forwards is a big reason we are a much higher scoring team this year.

I sometimes think when people make their mind up on someone it is almost impossible to change them around. I'm no King fan but I have to say he has improved this year - I'm sure that just as hard for me to say as it is for many of you to admit Bling and Farmer have improved also.. :shh

when I made the comment about players playing like millionaires it was about instances where they coughed up the ball looking for a smart alec type of play more disturbing was a couple of instances where our key defenders went looking for the big grab in the defensive 50 rather than punching. Can recall this cost us a goal or 2 - the kid that came in for Black, he made us look silly one or two times in this regard by outmarking our defenders and then going back and kicking the goal.

Yes agree Ramps
l myself cringe when our defenders try to pack mark  :banghead  when a punch is clearly the correct option

9 different goal scorers was a real positive for mine....much better than 3 weeks ago when we only had 2.

Yeah lets see the knockers come out now and say we are too Jack focused!!!

WAT the knockers were correct at the times they posted.
Its only recent form from all players that everything is falling in place.
It could all collapse just as quickly but this time l think that wont happen.
If l'm knocking something or someone & the tables turn for the better l will be 1st to admit.
l dont no no dick like you telling me  ;D Go to Africa  :lol

Did we notice how many times Dwayne Russell mentioned during the telecast that Richmond had won its fair share of spoons.

7 Dwayne......only 2 more than your beloved Geelong.

And 19 less than St Kilda.

Yes I noticed too! I thought he needed to add, in recent history! But it is still not "our fair share"! I'll give him one thing, i think he was referring to our effort as a lowly placed club against the effort of a more experienced, more successful in recent history club!

Here's the link to Hardwick's EOTT report on the Brisbane game. Tactically everything went as planned.
