Richmond vs North Melbourne @ the MCG --- Round 21, 2021

[FooffooValve]

It's all worrying, but the most worrying thing in this game is that North are VERY ordinary. And we look like we are actually trying. That's what worries me. Dimma just can't say at the end of this game that "North were very good, played some really good footy". They are crap.

We are also just burning teammates with our indecision. Free options to the left just then going forward and we kick long instead and to the ground towards Lynch then Edwards is too slow deciding and kicks backwards to Rioli who is under the hammer.

yep

Nank, Bolton and Lynch.....

Same issue all year.

- Midfield is now worst in comp, getting belted.
- Ball movement is cooked, can't move the ball and find a target in an absolute debacle of a forward structure.

Essentially we built a team of average picks and utilised high pressure and endurance to work teams over.  Hocking turned the game into stop start gridiron to take the energy and pressure out of it and let the big dumb animals turn it into netball.  I am surprised they haven't been handed stuffing bibs with their positions written on em.

No hunger, where has the Richmond way gone , let’s see if any of the kids want to be part of the future as finals defiantly looks past us now

[Rampsation]

Need to use our draft picks. Use wisely. Take all 6 picks to the draft.

I mean seriously...Stand...what netball rubbish is that ?

Hocking did what he needed to do to get Gee long a flag tjats all.

Game worked perfectly without the rule for over 150 years. Get rid of it and the prior opportunity rule and footy would be much better

Hovking did it to savage us. It worked. I doubt they will change it.

I dont care who wins the flag as long as it is not Geelong.

[Owl]

agreed

I was hoping Greene the little poo had done a better job on Danger but looks like he will be able to breath well enough to play

I’m going to contradict myself several times here because I just can’t comprehend how far we’ve fallen off the pace. Yep, the stand rule certainly gave the kick and mark teams a huge boost, but, it’s the same rule for both teams and we’ve failed to adapt. But, we’ve recruited a squad over years to olay our style and game and the AFL interfered in how the game is played. It will take us years to recruit and adapt to the AFLs preferred game style.
