Same old Richmond

[jackstar]

off week ? Reality check.
Was reading Brian Royals quote in todays Sunday Age, ""today will be a good measuring stick of where we are it"", sure was Brian.

[mjs]

The reason he was traded for was his footskills, they've been terrible 75% of the year.

They've actually been good for 78% of the year.

Fish - I take your point but in his case you would need to know how many of the 22% are disastrous turnovers rather than just ineffective. He was good last week but today - not acceptable. It was painfull having to listen to Spud take shots at him.

[Fishfinger]

My point is that his foot skills have NOT been terrible for 75% of the year, as alleged.

[jackstar]

Terry, time to be a man, McMahon must be dropped.

Admit it was a silly decision to trade away pick 19 for him and give someone deserving a go.

So McMahon's fault again lol
Unbelievable 

This is the first time i've slagged off McMahon. It's not just his fault, but why is he untouchable when it comes to dropping him. The reason he was traded for was his footskills, they've been terrible 75% of the year.

Drop Pettifer, Tuck, Bowden and Hyde as well.

If any of you who do actually go to a game would of seen McMahon last week against the bombers, he didnt actually play on anyone but played in a ""zone "" fact, I actually sat with a poster from here and pointed that out, against the bombers he was unaccountable, then you read of people posting on here saying what agreat game McMahon, you would have to be joking arent you. Thats why we wont improve with weak players like McMahon, post what you like and disagree with me, but please watch and you might learn.

[torch]

i am not a McMahon fan.

it was not his fault today.

but he should never be in the team.

what i don't understand, is why do we draft players like "McMahon" when we have about 3-4 other half back flankers on our list that are all young?

our forward line structure has always been shocking, and was exposed today.

we do not have a key forward in our forward line.

Western Bulldogs supporters tell me that there problem Terry left was no tall forwards.

i think Terry has lost a bit. 4th year and we still have not changed.

the past mouth i haven't been convinced.

we didn't put Essendon way like Sydney did today.

we are not a team like Sydney.


Deledio who played well today, must play in the midfield. no questions.

Cotchin has only played 3 matches and is very very very good. if you watch our first 4 goals. he set all them up including the 1st goal for us that he kicked.

what is the point in playing Jack down back when he is a forward?

Kelvin Moore i have accepted as a backman, not a forward.

Shultz must go or plays at CHB and improves from Round 11 - 22

now my final "bitch' ...


Bowden ... Hyde ... Pettifer ... those three must be out of the RFC ASAP!

not a fan of Tuck or McMahon too!

Shultz, Polak ... no more too!

Pettifer played on McVeigh in the midfield ... and Jarrad kicked 3 goals on him!

Kayne is LAZY LAZY LAZY ... GOODBYE Kayne ... thank you very much.

Joel ... just get rid of him please!

Hyde ... like seriously ... he is stopping Polo from playing ... all you Connors fans ... he is stopping him from playing too!

Terry will probably drop Edwards and Jack for next week.

Nathan Brown!

"his time has passed. do not expect him to do anything anymore!"

Sydney are a good team. and i thank them if we drop Joel, Kayne and Hyde!

as i said ... we have no "Team" ... we are individuals.

Adelaide match becomes a big big match for us.

we must simply win our home matches.

Adelaide are hot/cold at the moment, but are still a good "TEAM" ...

i hope that ...

Pattison, Deledio, Tambling, Cotchin, Foley will be playing in the midfield for the rest of the season. (which is highly unlikely)

Simmonds is good, had a bad match. not alone.

Richardson needs to keep his feet. and learn how to kick the ball. lol!

i gave time for Terry and backed him up, even though i agreed with most "anti-Terry" ...

Jade Rawlings as our forward line coach is a "f***ing joke!".

i want to see the team forward line like this


HF: Morton, Jack/Hughes, Edwards

F: ??? Jack/Hughes, ???


ROFL ! ... we have no Tall "Young" Fowards or Smalls ...

Edwards, Jack, Hughes, Morton are the only players that are our future forward line !

need to draft forwards ... genuine forwards

[tigersalive]

our forward line structure has always been shocking, and was exposed today.

Wrong.  Our disgusting entries to the forward 50 were exposed today. 

i think Terry has lost a bit. 4th year and we still have not changed.

the past mouth i haven't been convinced.

we didn't put Essendon way like Sydney did today.

we are not a team like Sydney.

No poo sherlock, we're about 16 Sydney standard players off it.

what is the point in playing Jack down back when he is a forward?

Because the entry to him was hopeless so why leave him there to cop the wrath of our entries?

At least could get the ball himself back there rather than rely on crap kicks to him.

Shultz must go or plays at CHB and improves from Round 11 - 22

Top 5 players today, no question.

Bowden ... Hyde ... Pettifer ... those three must be out of the RFC ASAP!

Bowden was good today, Petts was ok, Hyde atrocious.

not a fan of Tuck or McMahon too!

Both in horrible form no doubt.
But we're stuck with both until the end of 2010 under contract. 

Shultz, Polak ... no more too!

Polak wasnt even given a chance today, cent blame him.

Schulz was on of the better today as I've said before, at least he wasnt a turnover king.
 

Pettifer played on McVeigh in the midfield ... and Jarrad kicked 3 goals on him!

Kayne is LAZY LAZY LAZY ... GOODBYE Kayne ... thank you very much.

Kayne had 6 tackles and tried his best, that's just ridiculous matchups by Terry.

Joel ... just get rid of him please!

Actually gave us something today unlike most of the rest of the team.

Hyde ... like seriously ... he is stopping Polo from playing ... all you Connors fans ... he is stopping him from playing too!

VFL for the rest of the year please.  An amateur. 

Terry will probably drop Edwards and Jack for next week.

Let's hope not, both suffered by crap forward 50 kicks that gave them no shot.

Nathan Brown!

"his time has passed. do not expect him to do anything anymore!"

Lol, forgot the last few weeks? 

as i said ... we have no "Team" ... we are individuals.

No we're a team for sure but we're too good at sharing it when we cant find an option and expecting a man 1 metre beside them to find one.  It's because we have no confidence to hit targets. 

Adelaide match becomes a big big match for us.

we must simply win our home matches.

Adelaide are hot/cold at the moment, but are still a good "TEAM" ...

So are we when inconsistently.

i hope that ...

Pattison, Deledio, Tambling, Cotchin, Foley will be playing in the midfield for the rest of the season. (which is highly unlikely)

Simmonds is good, had a bad match. not alone.

Would be good to see. 

Richardson needs to keep his feet. and learn how to kick the ball. lol!

No one could do that today, we were slip sliding and miskicking all day, a bit rough to pluck Richo out of it all.

i gave time for Terry and backed him up, even though i agreed with most "anti-Terry" ...

Jade Rawlings as our forward line coach is a "f***ing joke!".

It is a worry he's trying to do two jobs at once. 

i want to see the team forward line like this


HF: Morton, Jack/Hughes, Collins

F: Brown Jack/Hughes, Edwards


ROFL ! ... we have no Tall "Young" Fowards or Smalls ...

Edwards, Jack, Hughes, Morton are the only players that are our future forward line !

need to draft forwards ... genuine forwards

Finished it off for you.


Add Putt to that in a couple of years, will be a player.

[torch]

good reply "tigersalive"

 

i think we should be kicking long too.

Terry will probably drop Edwards and Jack for next week.

Unfortunately I can see this happening as well.

Another thing, we drop Petts and Bowden and we start playing some great football. So what do we do, we bring these guys back into the team!!

[bushranger]

This game has to make heads roll. We can't be expected too hold our heads up in pride when this is happening all over again like last year. We all can make excuses but now its really time for Terry to stand up and lay the blame on his shoulders squarley. Stop blaming the players as much, for a crap performances. He's the one supposabaly teaching them how to move the ball.
But in my books one really good thing came out of the game. This was the injury to Kane Johnson, my mother could play better than him if she was alive. He's a total dud and I hope it puits him out for the rest of his football life and give a better man the chance to lead us to victory.

[Judge Roughneck]

Hmmm overreaction I see

No overreaction.

Pettifer and Bowden were added to the team. We lost by 10 goals +

Not good at all.
