Versus Bombers match thread

[julzqld]

10 consecutive goals to Essendon

[10 FLAGS]

stuffen disgraceful performance but you cant expect anything when you got blokes like Jackson, Edwards and afew others who kill you with their disposal and bring on Hislop. Just a stuffen pee poor effort from half way in the 3/4 - no pride, no determination, stuffen rubbish IMHO.

Only positives- Griffiths, Helbig and afew others who got into the game a little bit. Hardwick needs to make some tough calls or his coaching career will be over in about 12 months from now.

Commentators are sooo biased to Essendon it's not funny.

Bombers just to classy is all i've heard all night...

Who, like Stanton, Prismall, Dyson?

It was like a cripple fight. Nothing to be proud of.

Commentators are right after the first half of the 3rd qtr we went into our shells with short slow kicks to each other. Didn't play on enough to use our speed to bust the lines.

Yep we've persisted with these turnover merchants for well too long. Time for them to go.

Not happy.  We had this and then threw it away.  Heads need to seriously roll!

And could someone please tell me who Nason has to sleep with to get a game?  Surely he's better than some of the "players" that are in the team at the moment.  And could someone please spend all week with Grigg showing him how to kick for goal.

Mentally soft! No killer instinct when almost 4 goals up and when the pressure was turned up we just feel away so meekly in all parts of the game.

No players could honestly say played for the full 4 quarters, all cameos with real influence from any one player non existent. Not sure whether its the travel we did in the last month but again we looked to run out of legs. The Bombers made us look slow after the Newman turning point of the third quarter. The delivery to our forward line was nothing short of atrocious and no wonder Jack has lost confidence. Not looking good for the rest of the season, wouldnt be surprised at all if we get knocked off by the GC next week as they are probably due another upset win.

This cancer needs to be removed...the culture and lack of heart at this club is just stupid!!!!!!!!!!

[Penelope]

couldn't put the game away when we had all the play.
Absolutely no forward structure all night.
most of our goals were scrounged or courtesy of the umps.

no they didn't go into their shells. The shells were broken and all that was left was soft and mushy.

Please no one use the old Richmond excuse of "we are only a young side and we ran out of legs", "we need to develop our own"..ra ra ra... Our team needs developed players during the trade period..end of story.

your answer to our problems is Nason?  Mate let me tell you something, Nason isn't the answer!

like Houli and Grigg?

No Thanks, they are as jack dyer would say- good ordinary players.

for us to improve we need better than Houli and Grigg.

Im glad we lost - even when we were 4 goals up we still looked crap. We give our opponents chance after chance after chance to get into the game even when we're on top. JUST TOO MANY PATHETIC UNFORCED ERRORS EVERY SINGLE WEEK. If we had of won it would've been another typical richmond win, nothing special and only a win bc our opponents didnt take their chances. I'm glad we were exposed horribly in the end bc Im tired of covering up the real problems that exist. Problems that include players who continually kill momentum out of nothing when we are seemingly on our way to an easy inside 50. I wont bother naming the players bc we all know who they are, they do it every bloody week. There is no anger, just resignation.

 Positives - Griffiths, Vickery, Helbig! Tonight he showed composure and that he was ready to play AFL.
