Richmond vs Hawthorn @ the M.C.G. --- Round 8, 2025

[Simonator]

Lynch turned into a very selfish footballer. Sad to see

Sorry can't agree Sim

Bloke's busting a gut, constantly is against 2 in marking contests, trying to bring his teammates into the game. Gets the ball just outside of F50 and no one leads, so of course he gets tackled from behind. To me that's not selfish, that's trying to do and be everything in a very young side

What about constantly ignoring first options and trying to do too much… how many times does he try a fend off and get caught, everyone knows he will get done but him apparently

We'll take that gift. 3 Hawks up and they spoil each other. Mansell down kicks the goal.

Rich  3.4-22
Haw  8.8-56

[mightytiges]

Just schoolboy errors  . Miller runs over the ball  .

[Simonator]

I’m so sick of watching our experienced players play such dumb footy.

[pmac21]

It's hard to watch.
Hawks running the ball through way to easily. 

[mightytiges]

Trezise subbed on for Rioli.

[mightytiges]

Nice goal by Green.

Rich  4.4-28
Haw  9.10-64

[pmac21]

How have MJs 5 possessions been this week.  Top quality? 

[Simonator]

Dow can barely kick the football

[mightytiges]

So it's now a free kick if you run into a handballing arm

Frees 5 - 18

No worse than the others though apparently.

 

[Simonator]

Chol and Gunston both without a man side by side ? Unbelievable

[pmac21]

Hopper Taranto just ambling through the middle on that play, Hawks goal. 
Both lazy.

[mightytiges]

Two HTB interpretations out there  .
