Turning point of the game.

Hard little bastard

[Hellenic Tiger]

Like this kid should play for the rest of the year.
Finds it, is tough and a hard nut.
I felt the game was turning our way when he collided with the Suns player but it was all fair I thought.
What else should be fair is king hitting Campbell Brown the sniper.
That cheap shot on Cotch was diabolical and a few others also and then listening to Dermie try and justify it. Loved it when he ran into Ablett though.

Liked the way Cotch came back at Brown.

Keeps hhis feet this kid, and boy is he tough....i reckon Thompson felt like he was hit by a truck

[Judge Roughneck]

1 - Robinson
2 - Thompson

Who is victim number three?

Balantine or Crawley would be lovely.

[lamington]

The biscuit was fantastic tonight. Biscuit to take out Crowley so Deledio can finally have an impact against Freo would be fantastic.

[Smokey]

Liked the way Cotch came back at Brown.

Brown is a sniping grub of the highest order - in the same class as that other piece of excrement Waite.

[Judge Roughneck]

Brown lack ability

[Siberian]

Brown lack ability

thought him and brennan at times kept us in it through ill dicipline

Richmond teenager Matt Arnot shows way as Richmond end their Cairns hoodoo against Gold Coast

RICHMOND'S refusal to leave Cairns without its first win against Gold Coast was packaged in the 86kg frame of Matt Arnot.

Playing just his second game, the teenager picked up 15 disposals and kicked a goal - one of just 11 at a rain and wind-swept Cazaly's Stadium.

But it was his full-throttle attack on the ball, and anyone who got in his way, that ensured the Tigers approach the toughest three weeks if their season with a 10-5 record.

Early in the third quarter Arnot cannoned into Rory Thompson, forcing the emerging star off the field - and to hospital for scans on a shoulder/chest injury.

Thompson had completely blanketed Jack Riewoldt to that point and his injury forced Guy McKenna to call on Seb Tape, playing just his second game after a year out with a knee injury.

Riewoldt suddenly came to life and although he squandered several opportunities, a left-foot snap after marking on the boundary in the final quarter would prove the sealer.

Midfielder Dan Jackson, who with Brett Deledio did a superb tag-team on Suns skipper Gary Ablett, said Arnot had a problem in the pre-season - he was doing to teammates what he did to Thompson tonight.

"We had to tell him that friendly fire wasn't the best thing, but you can't question his attitude," Jackson said.

"He has to be careful with the rules but he treads that line pretty well and he's certainly got a terrific attitude so I think we'll see him get more games."

Didn't he kick two goals? Our opener and that one that sailed over hands and bounced through?

[Andyy]

^ I thought so too.

Loving this kid. Needs to be a bit more agile at times, but Geez you can't argue with his physique. He's a MUST for the team VS Freo/Hawthorne/Sydney. And I hope Tuck comes back so that we have even more size in there. Drop Grigg, too skinny.

[Judge Roughneck]

was it not foley?
