Richmond vs St Kilda --- Round 4, 2020

[mightytiges]

Still a danger game as the Saints play better at Docklands. You can't give them open space to run freely under little pressure on the faster track.

For us it's all about the first quarter and kicking some early goals. We need to bring the intensity and pressure from the start, win the contested footy and connect between the mids and forwards. You don't win too many games giving up 5 goal starts like we have the past two weeks.

[mightytiges]

Sheds goal on the run in the first 14 secs  .

Rich  1.0-6
StK  0.0-0

[JP Tiger]

Holy Moley!!     A fast start!     

[mightytiges]

Stack fumble gifts Butler a goal.

6 - 6

[mightytiges]

Kicks: 2 - 9

In50s: 1 - 5

6 - 7

No point having a quick start in the first 14 secs if we go to sleep again.

[mightytiges]

Poor kicks and dropped marks so far .

[WilliamPowell]

In the space of 3 minutes Butler out marks Houli

And thanks to a terrible dropped Mark by Stack gets a goal.

Sums up our season thus far

The Higgis
Ns kick was just all panic

[mightytiges]

Easy goal to them  .

6 - 13

[Go Richo 12]

Not liking this already.

[Francois Jackson]

same as last week thus far.

signs arent great

[mightytiges]

They are feeding off our mistakes and we are making plenty of them  .

Another goal to them.

6 - 19

Here we go again with the pathetic start .

[WilliamPowell]

Houli is horribly out of form

People shouldn't get seduced by the number of kicks he is getting because the quality is woeful

[WilliamPowell]

We are in trouble again

[Simonator]

Higgins is so not up to it. Playing like an even worse Castagna. Rushes his disposal and stuffs it all up

[mightytiges]

Aside from the first one which was due to a Saints error we've lost every centre clearance  . We can only get our hands on the ball in defence when we do.

More soft mistakes. 3 mistakles in a row gifts the Saints another shot on goal  .

6 - 25

Might as well say game over given how we're playing.
