Richmond vs Adelaide @ Adelaide Oval --- Round 5, 2022

[mightytiges]

We're in trouble here

We've been soft, reactive and dumb today. Not desperate to work hard enough to win the ball. Getting what we deserve.

[mightytiges]

Nank free and 50.

Goal to Cotch. Understatement to say we needed that.

Rich  5.3-33
Adel  8.3-51

[mightytiges]

Another fumble under no physical pressure (Balta). Came off second best too  (edit: he's okay).

Rioli free at HF. To the pocket where Parker marks 25 out. Kicks it OOTF!  .

[Broadsword]

With all respect to the young men involved (much better footballers than I) can we put a name through a few now.

Parker
Ross
Aarts

Just for starters.

[mightytiges]

Risky kick back into the corridor but it pays off and open the ground. Jack ends up with it 20m out. Goal! 

Rich  6.3-39
Adel  8.3-51

[mightytiges]

Another fumble at the initial stoppage and then we don't protect the defensive side of the second stoppage and gift them another easy clearance goal  .

Dumb dumb dumb. Story of our day  .

[Buddysucks]

Riewoldt looks disinterested

[Broadsword]

Someone teach our boys to buckle at the knees when they feel pressure in the back so we can at least even out these bogus in the back frees.

[Andyy]

Geez our backline is a liability tonight

[Assange Tiger 😎]

Tarrant has been slaughtered today

[mightytiges]

Another set shot to Adelaide off our fumbling/missed possession      . Lucky Tex misses.

U10s stuff!     

[mightytiges]

Geez our backline is a liability tonight

It's our midfield's fault. I could get a mark inside Adelaide's F50 today given how easy the ball is coming in.

[Broadsword]

Well we can't keep wishing for the senior guys to come back in. If they're all around 30 and their bodies aren't letting them all get on the park at the same time then this is the new reality.

We need to keep getting kids into the team (not mid-season draft 26yos) and beef up the footy department because we look way off the pace and fading by round 5, 2022.

No more Tarrants and Parkers and Aarts. No more 5-coach football departments.

[mightytiges]

Half time

Richmond     3.1     6.3-39
Adelaide       4.2     9.4-58

Goals: Castagna 2, Lynch, Riewoldt, Cotchin, Balta.


Pathetic dumb soft slop! 

[WilliamPowell]

Not sure how it looks on the TV but Tarrant has been shocking

Biggest liability in our backing
