Richmond vs Melbourne @ the MCG --- Anzac Eve, Round 6, 2023

[eliminator]

Brilliant tackle

[mightytiges]

Cumberland shanks it from 55 OOTF. Normally he's better than that.

[mightytiges]

Dirty ball inside F50 + forward pressure works again. Melbourne struggling at ground level in defence.

Mansell goal 

Rich  5.2-32
Melb  2.2-14

[Broadsword]

Well, how long can we keep it going for?

Players just aren’t working hard enough
It’s clear as day our blokes aren’t prepared to run defensively to support

It’s gonna be a long night if the boys don’t extract the digits 

The boys clearly read my post because they did exactly extract the digits  after I posted.

I’ll clearly take the credit.

Quarter time

Richmond    5.2-32
Melbourne   2.2-14

Goals: Cumberland 3, Hopper, Mansell.


Best quarter we've played offence & defence so far this year.

Now we need to do it again for another 3 quarters rather than just one.

[Buddysucks]

We’re on here lads!!!! Hope we can keep the pressure up and shut down their run through the middle.

Long long long way to go

[mightytiges]

Samson doing well in the centrebounce ruck against Gawn so far.

Pickett is switched on. Hard at it but not going overboard giving away frees.

[mightytiges]

Taranto centre clearance. May holds Jack's jumper (free). Misses again. Geez Jack!

33 - 14

[mightytiges]

Can't miss open targets.

[mightytiges]

Cheap shot to the Rioli's head by May.

[Broadsword]

Nice to see the kids showing some signs.

[mightytiges]

Samson from the pockett   

Rich   6.3-39
Melb  3.2-20


Hopper is having a top game so far btw.

[Andyy]

Really liking Ryan tonight, coming along very well.

Better conditions for him too.

Wish he'd kicked that 1st quarter kick into F50 instead of cute to the HFF but that's a learning he should take.
