If the ball is so slippery why aren't some of the players wearing gloves?

If the ball is so slippery, why aren't the Pies fumbling?
Because that is what we specialise at BEING FRIGGIN CRAP

Lloyd, Vlastuin, Astbury and Jackson the only ones who can hold their head high tonight. Arnott showing something since he got on.

Jack you retread, when your 7 goals down and goaless yourself maybe you shouldn't be having a crack at the pies player for punching the ball?

Vickery and Chaplin HAVE to go.

Newman too.

Playing too tall as it is so bring it in on.

3 goals in 3 quarters - eff me. May as well throw griff to chf permanent and/or bring Elton in. We couldnt do worse

We just don't have a midfield at the moment so intent on negative football that when we do get the ball we are standing flat footed, we have so many out of form players its horrendous. Not sure where we go from here, yes we can drop the obvious targets but who would come in, would be back to getting flogged week in week out.

We have recruited too many average players who were doing nothing with their previous clubs and we already had too many players who werent doing anything with Richmond anyway. So we have added average players to average players and this equals an average squad which will never succeed.

Couple of things - depth is an issue. Kinda knew it but it really sticks out.
Preparation this season has been poor, might be between the ears but it doesn't matter - that's a coaching issue.
We are clearly mentally shot which isn't good enough given our experience.
It's just a shame, again after showing promise, the club looks to have failed to deliver on a basic promise - which is to play finals in 2 consecutive years.
It is hard to believe that any sporting organisation in an elite competition could be so mediocre for so long - particularly when so much is done is equalise the competition.

But there you go.

Night all.

Gordon, don't just stand there & put your hands to your face whilst the opposition are racing off with the ball

This loss has shown that perhaps we are back in the wilderness for while.

Its all over folks. We are starting again whether Hardwick likes it or not. This squad isnt good enough for anything. Have to go and start rebuilding with knew kids.

When you recruit competetors, you end up being competative give or take.

Meanwhile, the rest of the comp are recruiting champions to be......
