Richmond vs Essendon @ the M.C.G., Rnd 11, 2018 - Dreamtime at the 'G

[mightytiges]

Best 3 are Sheds, Dusty & Caddy.

Anything wrong with Lambert or is he doing a hard tag and sacrificing his game? Hard to tell from the TV. He's only had the 2 kicks.

Early on in that quarter our disposal efficoency was around 52%. Fortunately we aren’t able to be a little cleaner the second half of that quarter.

I think we are playing better but it’s our disposal and too cute dinky kicks that are hindering us blowing this game away.

Cut out the fancy stuff keep it simple to.No brain fades in 3 qtr either coming out asleep.Up the anti with skills to.

x100000000 agreement to both posts Tigeritis and georgies. Essendon's run on and gaining the momentum early in that qtr was due to our dumb too cute crap gifting them soft goals  . A few too many Tigers ballwatching too rather than going for the pill or helping a teammate  .

Interested to know our disposal efficiency this year compared to last. Maybe i am expecting too much but we seem to be turning the ball over regularly and must have an all time record number of clangers. Is it really that difficult to find a target by foot 20 metres away. Not sure about our forward line either, ball hits the deck and our smalls dont seem to be where they should be, Jack also doesnt seem his energetic self tonight after his concussion.

Graham Menadue and Lambert need to get more involved.

Our home & away form wasn't great at this time last year. Plenty of dumb stuff (hence the 3 narrow losses especially vs Freo & GWS). Our disposal improved dramatically by the time we hit the finals.

Dusty wanted to go all the way then when he should have given off.

73 - 29

[mightytiges]

Jack with the intercepting mark 60 out. Goes to Caddy 1-on-1 and he marks it in the pocket.

That was freakish    .

Another free to them sets up a goal for them .

Poor defending by us in the contest. Ball fell into Tippa's lap who is only about 5 ft tall.

79 - 35

[mightytiges]

Great play by Cotch gets through 4 Essendon players and kicks it off the ground to moore who gets the free at 52. Gets the distance but pulls it left.
