VFL R19: Richmond vs Gold Coast @ Carrara, Sat. Aug 2 [curtain-raiser]

[one-eyed]

Johnson wins the HTB free in the centre and then gets 50. Misses to the right from 40 out.

14 - 11

[Andyy]

Ahhh Kosi.

Two shots for 0.1.

Never questioned his endeavour but...

[one-eyed]

basic errors. No one front and square defensive side at the HB aerial contest and then Guiney too slow in defence and caught.

14 - 17

[one-eyed]

Hanson down initially and helped off the trainers. Blight will have to ruck all day if Hanson is concussed.

[one-eyed]

Rosas, who apparently we're interested in, gets another for the Suns.

14 - 23

[one-eyed]

Kosi thrown into the ruck.

[one-eyed]

Today's game.

We lack talls forward of the ball. That's due to our long injury list.
We don't get front and square so the Suns clear out the front their goal side  .
We don't pin the arm in the tackle so the Suns still get the handball away  .


Another goal to the Suns.

14 - 30

[one-eyed]

George OOTF when we were out. Then caught ballwatching in D50.

Rosas kicks his 2nd if he is trying to impress us.

14 - 38

We are witches hats this quarter  .

[one-eyed]

Not sure what the free was for but Kosi gets one on the boundary in the pocket. Misses again.

15 - 38

[one-eyed]

We gain possession from the Suns' kick in and Wilson finds Girolami. His shot misses everything and barely makes the distance . No score.

[Simonator]

How can it be a tunnelling free if youre standing still and guarding space?

[one-eyed]

Suns run it down the other end and Rosas gets his 3rd.

15 - 44

[one-eyed]

How can it be a tunnelling free if youre standing still and guarding space?

These umps are hopeless.

Frees  7 - 16

[one-eyed]

Another goal to them.

15 - 51


One way traffic

Half-time

Richmond     2.1    2.3-15
Gold Coast    1.5    7.9-51

Goals: Blight, Raso


We look like a team with barely any AFL-listed players today. We barely have enough talls as is, so ruckman Hanson going off was the last thing we could afford structurally. Virtually game over unless we somehow pull off another miraculous second half comeback.
