Just to let Infamy know, Cousins got our best in most media outlets
Where did I say he wasn't in the bests?
I just said that his kicking (on the rare occasions he did kick it) often ended up as turnovers.

I've been very positive on Cousin's form lately and want him to stay on next year, however I am objective enough to add critisism where its warranted. Just because I didn't go to the game doesn't mean I have nothing to add and doesn't make my opinion invalid.

Perhaps you should try proving me wrong with facts and evidence, that will shut me up. Problem is you can't.

I gave Cuz b.o.g. because his give and goes at contests and handball releases got us going but I remember him kicking long at least twice to no one so he's not perfect.

He wasn't the only one mind you. There were a few too many lazy blind kicks by us yesterday including the worse ones where the kick is lazily and panickingly around the body without even looking a la Nick Daffy style :scream.

Cousins was clearly our B.O.G. was all over the ground, kicked a nice goal Ponsford end & was the man who repelled it out of the backline with his damaging handballs. Personal opinion it was not one of the best games from Richmond & Adelaide missed some simple getable goals
l counted 3 OOTF at the Richmond end. Was dissapointed with the crowd.

Cousins was certainly in our top 3 - I thought it hard to split him, Tuck and Deledio for best, with Newman very good also.

would rather we keep cousins for one more year than one or two of the others who seem to have won new contracts

Terrible 1st half! We had no idea how to tackle the crows and their game plan, ohh did I mention the umpys? Let's not go there! They want respect! they will never, ever get it from me.
We started to play a bit of play on footy which got us home in the end.
I know no one will watch but have a look at the leniancy the skunks get in their games, we never, fken never get it. If anyone was there or cares "depending on what they show"! Watch Martin getting  tagged to the sh|thouse and given absolutely nothing. Crows are still a good seasoned outfit and was a good win by the boys.
F this tanking poo, rubbish supporters.
Dees will probs get us next week and maybe port only win to go, season success from what I expected.

NB: Tankers, lets see how pick 4 v 5, 5 v 6, 6 v 7 go honestly what a load of crap .....

Idiot.

We changed at half-time from a zone to playing man on man.

Dimma is well aware that we need to lean how to play a zone.

There were just four members of that 2006 victorious Tiger team, who played in last Sunday’s success against Adelaide - captain Chris Newman, Brett Deledio, Shane Tuck and Daniel Jackson.

That is amazing!  Lids is only 23 and Jackson 24 too but both are some of our most senior players.  :o
