You know we're struggling when we're handballing as much as we're kicking. It means we're overpossessing and not going fast and direct.

Too many passengers so far.
 

[big tone]

And our good players are either MIA or butchering the ball 

Our good players can only carry these flogs so long.

A perfect example was when Harry T had the drop on Rance, so Rance just backed back into Taylor hoping for a 3rd man up to help him out, but of course nothing came. Astbury was just content to make sure his man couldn't get it.
Add that to Houli and BEllis in the backline and what hope do Rance, Grimes and Vlastuin have.
It's worked till now because all 3 play selfless footy where the other are just playing for their spot.

If someone tells me cellis deserves his spot once more it's going to get ugly

What a stuffing gimp

And to think someone like Miles gets dropped for him

But he is not even the worse Ellis we have out there.

For those peanuts that think we can win finals with Grigg, Houli and BEllis, take a look today. The first sign of some decent pressure they are as weak as pee.

I hope all 3 get injuries today and can FO. I'm am so over watching their poo.

rubbish  CEllis is the worst player on an afl list

[mightytiges]

Sadly, that's true so far. We haven't handled the increase in pressure. No Hawkins, Selwood & Duncan and they are still pantsing us.

rubbish CEllis makes BEllis look like a norm smith medalist. CEllis is the worst player on an afl list

Vodka or beer?
Either way you are clueless.

Alex Rance, the anchor of the Richmond defence, has had his hands full with Harry Taylor. Rance is ranked No.1 in the AFL for intercept possessions this season, but has had just the two intercepts in the first half while conceding three goals to Taylor.

Frees 6-19

How is that not a stat worth mentioning during the commentary?

When it was 14-4 Eddie mcGuire said

"And the umpires are umpiring bee-utifully here today"

thats why I press mute

I lost my schitt at the Riewoldt non-free

[mightytiges]

Another free to Geelong to start the third qtr and they get another set shot from it. Thankfully a miss.

29 - 54

[mightytiges]

Frees: 7 - 23

Geez, they've been hot on HTB today. 14 HTB frees paid ( 4 - 10 ).

[🏅Dooks]

Frees 24-7

Lesson: Don't drop Miles when we're playing against opposition that like playing physical like Geelong.

Clearances: 0 - 5 this qtr.
