Finals Footy
« on: September 10, 2016, 05:16:00 PM »
Anyone watching Swans v Giants? gee, how far off that are we???  :-[  We play such a low intensity game style - no wonder we went straight out 3 years in a row. No hope under the current visionaries

Why are they not kicking to pockets or backwards

But we're the best corralling side in the AFL! That's why we don't tackle!

Its as brutal and tough a game as Ive just about ever seen. Kudos to both sides

You dont need to be skillfull or talented to have that type of intensity

Hardwick's idea of what is necessary is so far off the mark it's embarrassing.

It is a blight on the club that the only reason he is still coaching is that they gave him a 2 year extension, not because they now think he should still be coach.

Watch the way GWS, Sydney, Hawthorn, Geelong, Footscray have played and then think of Richmond and you can't help but laugh at the comical comparison...

We have dumb players in comparison and i am referring to football brains. A few times watching the game today GWS in tight situations just had the smarts to get out of jail. I was imagining our guys in the same scenarious and we lose every time.

We dont seem to recruit players with footy smarts and these sorts of players are the ones who stand up especially in finals football when they have to think on their feet. Our guys just continually make the same mistakes week in week out.

There is a grand canyon of ability between our guys and the top sides, the gap wont be closed any time soon.
