He's a good clear thinker in the game when it get tough. And if that makes him waste time then so be it. Go Joel and all the power to you.  :gotigers

Got to hand it to the the old warhorse - in last nights game he was a big part of dragging us across the line.  :clapping

Early in the game he made a few errors that resulted in goals such as the free kick he gave to T. Johnson and tried to ice the clock with six minutes still remaining but it was his straight kicking in the forwardline that gave us the win.

Credit where credit is due - he was an asset to the team against Brissy.  :bow

Thats the way Stripe  ;D it was a team effort last night, Bowden only kicked the winning goal but the team won the game.
Every player on the ground last night made a mistake, some more costly than others & Joel was one of them costly mistakes because of his hard at it approach to last nights game. He was more aggressive & tackled hard & fought for the ball. he had nothing to go to when he held the ball up as Brisbane was pushing thier whole team back flooding.
we lost control of the ball for bad decision making, something the team really needs to work hard on. Bowden was on the other side wing, it made them work really hard & the end result was great for all of us. Richoman deserves more credit also cause he was great, as was White, Captain Pee Pee although l think he played ok needs to talk more as a player & let them know his not happy with thier mistakes & to advise them in the heat of battle,  his hot handpass when he could have kicked a 25 metre goal shocked me handballing to a player in the square with a opponant. if we stop making bad mistakes then teams will struggle against us.

Some mistakes were so glaringly obvious it was almost comical, Kane Johnson comes to mind (a couple of times). But we werent the only ones, Brissy had their culprits/comedians...Luke Power passing the ball to Joel from a kick in and Jamie Charmans kick after he took that screamer, but we'll give him a bit of leeway cos he may have had altitude sickness lol.......
On a side note.....Richmond as a team have, over the years, lent many a back to the opposition and allowed them to be contenders in mark of the year
