Preseason 2020 match 1: Richmond vs Collingwood @ Wangaratta

[pmac21]

Makes it hard when you kick it blindly long with no decent or let's say developing forwards.  Not one decent hit up forward pass that quarter.

A lot of truth in that

Quarter time

Richmond   1.0-6
Coll'wood   5.1-31

Goal: Short.

Well that was a quarter of slop . Forward line totally dysfunctional so far.

Umpires are stuffen cheats and Chol is a lazy dud

Quarter time

Richmond   1.0-6
Coll'wood   5.1-31

Goal: Short.

Bin Chol and things will improve

[mightytiges]

Our top ballgetters are all defenders.

Baker 9
Broad 9
Short 8

Tackles: 11 - 19. So our pressure is non-existent given the Pies have had more of the ball.

[mightytiges]

Good tackle Pickett. Goes long to F50 and Chol finally marks one playing in front. Chips to Lambert from 45. Goal! 

Rich  2.0-12
Coll   5.1-31

Haven’t seen anything from RCD or Stack.

Pickett busy but not hitting the targets. Baker has been good.

[mightytiges]

Overpossessing in the midfield leads to a turnover and Collingwood goal.

12 - 37

[mightytiges]

RCD kicks long from the centre clearance but once again we can't mark inside F50. Pies eventually clear.

Groundhog day.

[mightytiges]

Another goal to them.

12 - 43

When we're short chipping it around and allowing the opposition to get numbers behind the ball then it's not a Richmond game  .

[pmac21]

Free kicks 6-12 Geez. 

[mightytiges]

We're playing like it's a preseason Sunday picnic. No team intensity and desperation.

[mightytiges]

Then again we play Collingwood in only round 2. Perhaps we are deliberately not giving a stuff to not show our hand.
