Richmond vs Melbourne - Round 5, 2017

[Owl]

Caddy has to pull his finger out, cleaned it up a bit in the second but was poohouse in first.  The umps need to stop giving bs free kicks to them in front of their goals and start paying some of ours.  Looks like we have switched on a bit.  Cannot believe Rance didn't get cracked ribs, paid them back at least

Currently on a round trip of Australia , watching the game from crystal brook in south oz. good test of the boys this game will be. Super hard at it, if we can come back I think we are well on the road towards a good year. I've found caddy to be disappointing

Enjoy

Caddy with the final clearance of the quarter sending the football deep in to attacking 50, ultimately resulting in the Grigg goal right on half time. The Tigers ended that quarter with a streak of six consecutive clearances; Caddy with two of the six.

We had 6 of the last 7 scoring shots before half-time.

Cant remember being so angry at the footy, dees are just a footy side I stuffing hate! They bring the worst out of me, always so cocky and really bring it against us like they know we'll crack. Just wish someone would do A Balme and lay out hogan, watts, Jones and Viney the cocky pricks!

The umps have killed us in front of both goals, butler should've got a free.
We stopped th bleeding a bit towards the end of the qtr we really need to start winning the contests have been absolutely murdered around the ball.

Get into it tigers!

Considering the number of passengers we have to halftime if only half of them turn it around in the second half we have to improve. Prestia and Cotch really need to step it up, maybe worth getting Rioli more involved as he seems to do the impossible at times and it might just be his clearance that leads to a scoring opportunity. Just have a horrible feeling that if its close the umps will decide this one. Cannot believe how many seemingly perfect tackles we lay for no reward and every Dees tackle seems to get paid immediately.

  Dusty is having a shocker tonight, crap handballs left right and centre
