Richmond vs Sydney @ Adelaide Oval --- Round 5, 2023

[mightytiges]

Pathetic!

Just laziness and not switched on as illustrated by Bolton's kick off one step straight to a Swan with 30 secs to go that gives up a goal  .

This is schoolboy stuff

We had the game on our terms that quarter but we are disjointed, clueless and with U10s skills. So instead of being level or even in front, we're 3 and half goals down. I can handle losing if we're being outplayed but when we are our own worst enemy under no pressure then it does your head in .

Bleurgh. 

[WilliamPowell]

Scaring thing is the rain is due within the next 30 minutes or so

Can't afford to be 4 goals down like we are

Reckon we are cooked

We can’t kick.

Awful.

Our kicking, making, handball and first touch has been atrocious all season so far. It’s been clearly the worst it’s ever been.

What is the reason for this. Clearly haven’t touched a footy all preseason. What else could it be?

Our senior players are some of the worst culprits out there.


It’s so bad.

Thing is… this game is so winnable….

[Willy]

We’re just not good enough.

[crackertiger]

There is a lot of players that are just playing ordinary

[crackertiger]

Mansell is a superstar deadset... 🤣

We need to find a ruckman who can mark a footy.

We don’t have one currently.

[WilliamPowell]

There is a lot of players that are just playing ordinary

Yep, too many horribly out of form

Split the 1.6 to say 3.4 or 4.3 and we are either in front or a goal down

We should be in front

[WilliamPowell]

I'd just leave Miller in the ruck and either leave Ryan forward or sub him out for MRJ

We need to do something

Willy gets it

Hopper has been our best player. The only one that looks like he has any skill by hand or foot.
