Same old same old. The opposition step up the pressure and we can't go with them both physically and skill-wise. Our grinding gameplan keeps our score low yet can only hold the opposition for so long before they break it open. Too many passengers that leaves too much to too few!

To be honest it was our intensity and that the Eagles skill errors were as bad as ours that kept the game close for the first half. Once they started hitting their targets and winning the ball out of the centre in the third quarter as our intensity completely fell away, we were again blown out of the water - 7 goals to 1  :(. The skill levels deteriorated once again in the last as both sides went through the motions.

They seemed to go through Campbell's direct opponent (Chambers) a fair bit in the second half too...exposing his pace.

Agree Fwoy. Same last week as well (Josh Mahoney). Cambo obviously hasn't been 100% since he's come back and is struggling for pace. Maybe play him up forward (a la Voss) as Cambo's a pretty good lead and mark.

LOL just thought I'd read this thread considering i was at the game.

LOL @ froars optimism when we were 3 points up and then in a true Richmond like performance comes crashing down!!

2 things i got out of this game


1. We will be lucky to win another game this season with the skill level we showed today

2. West Coast wont win outside WA this year


There's no I in team, but there is 5 i's in Individual Brilliance.
