Thanks for the real-time commentary, OE.  Highly appreciated!

It read like there was much better endeavour than last week.  Can't see too many playing ones on four days break though.

No probs Muscles  .


Commentators' post-match thoughts:

Miles was best on ground for first 1.5 qtrs but didn't have as much as big an impact in the second half.

Lennon impressive.

Big O dominant in the ruck.

Foley toiled hard and his ball use showed over the course of the game.

Coach Tim Clarke would be happy with what he got out of his VFL listed players - Young, Bathie, Wall, McGough, Waite.

Commentators:

"I would like to see the selection committee pull the trigger and play Lennon on Thursday. All depends on the 5 day break."
 
"If I was promoting two players into the Richmond AFL line-up, it would be Lennon and Foley."

"Like the look of McIntosh which Richmond are developing into a tall midfielder at 192cm tall."

"Votes:
3. Foley
2. O'Hanlon
1. Coburg player."

Ended up going for a couple of qtrs.

Thought Foley was very good

Was staggered at 3qtr though

One of the great things about VFL footy is being able to stand around the huddles and listen in.

Can't do it with the Tigers though .. We rope off our huddle, keeping fans a distance way. First time I've ever seen it and will admit I was disgusted by it. Not in the spirit of the comp and what it is supposed to be about.

Seems we are on a roll at the minute in the stupidity stakes

THERE behaving like a bunch of Prima Donnas down there at Punt Road. No wonder we're stuffed.
