Richmond vs Fremantle @ Optus Stadium --- Round 13, 2023

[Tiger Khosh]

Good win but it seems like everyone forgets about all of our problems because of this one win ?

Geez mate, the game just ended an hour ago. Let us enjoy it for a bit lol

[TigerLand]

What a joy to watch that was.

Outstanding game, best ball movement I've seen for a couple of years. Well done to all at club for the mini turn around. Let's have some consistency and who knows what can happen from here.

Have t read the game thread to see if any others me tiones this but far out the sub of Walters changed the game.

How did we see our own use of the sub with Hugo, who I thought was next to pointless coming on. Not Hugo's fault I can't imagine it being easy watching 3.5 qtrs then come on in dieing stages to make an impact.

But compare to Walters impact our sub selection, timing and usage had absolutely zero impact on the game.

Well even these days ... Hugo<Walters

Useless. I don't see a role for him at AFL level currently.

Hugo is McIntosh with hair

[Siberian]

Whack!! His best spot is the wing though he ain't no back pocket

Nowhere near as fast, fit or physical. KMac far better

[Siberian]

Might be faster? Just think it's wing or nothing

[Damo]

Eff off
What an insult to Kmac

Like comparing poo and sugar

Sometimes these votes are hard to deconstruct and sometimes easy.

Not a lot of love for old man Cotchin. Thought he was just about our best. How he didn't get at least one coaches vote is beyond me.

Taranto was a beast and Bolton was great. Nankervis won the ruck battle but should have considering Darcy missed the game. Fair dinkum Toby is an extra big mid what he does when ball is on the ground continues to be undervalued imo.

Noticed comments about Short thought it was a typical Short game with three goals making it a good one.You can bet he wont get soft gimmes around the 50 metre arc next time we play em or from other sides. Yes they were all good long kicks at goal i find it funny though that is what people are hanging their hats on. Have never said he doesnt kick the ball long but usually its coming of hb and its usually just a dump kick down the line to a contest especially when there is pressure..

Maybe im just blinkered when it comes to him but i just dont like a lot about the way he plays. But three goals is three goals good on him.

 thought it was a good game to watch. for once i didn't get poo faced despite a good spot close to a bar which made for a pleasant change for me. Most live games i have to watch a replay to catch up everything i missed.

To finish have to say both Graham and Ross are just okay players and Tylar Young is not up to the standard.
