Look all I will say is I think alot of you have short memories. Similar story last year. Have a bit of faith in the boys. The last few weeks we have brought the pressure, looking alot better. A long way to go but have some faith

Exceptionally disappointing result

We kicked ourselves to a loss

You kick 6.14 you don't deserve to win  :banghead

Fair points

6.14 cost us that game

Well that’s one that got away. But... GWS, I hope you enjoy that win. You won’t touch us when we get the 8 or so front liners back that we’re missing.

Some players are one touch players, most are two touch players...Castagna is a six touch player... :shh

EGG drinking his own bath water this week. Along with Naish had the worst games ive seen anyone at richmond play in 3 years.

They were putrid and should be dropped. Naish to never play again.

To be honest we are just commenting on tonights effort. About 8 of our players didnt give a yelp. Some are not up to standard. Naish Pickett to name just two. There are others like Soldi no good tonight. JR8 and Lynch providing little up forward. Rioli poor. Our defence letting Green kick 5 terrible. They deserve to cop criticism because they threw this game away.

Tonight was a triumph of skill over system.... :shh

When the system only operates at 50% its hard to win. Too many passengers in this 22.

This^ defensively very poor and worst game Grimes has played for years.  Broad got his pants pulled down multiple times tonight. They looked very dangerous with an open forward line as ours looked clogged up....again!
Coaches will need to look at our forward entries as long high bombs are not the answer.

Pull your head in guys having go at Naish a kid.How about our senior players been passengers Graham, Castagna,Lambert,Rioli that's who let us down not only today to.

Had all the momentum for a long time not even a goal to show for it and that's the game there.Forward line been issue all year no cohesion with midfield and for all the dominance we don't score.
