Dimma's post-match presser:
Watch here: https://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/1094199/round-3-hardwick-post-match
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Lost contests. Down 17 in contested ball and then -25 after Grimesy went off.
* St Kilda in the last quarter transitioned from the back half at 44%. So our backs are trying to defend 1-on-1 against quick ball movement.
* So that sums up the last quarter. You can lose contests but your pressure has to be right up there. Ours was only 1.67. So if you lose both of those you're in a bit of trouble.
* It is frustrating but for 3 quarters it was pretty bloody good. So the disappointing last quarter will be the overriding thing to come out of the game but for 3 quarters we were very competitive against a pretty good side. So we've got a few things we can work on but there's some things we did well today as well.
* Grimesy's hammy - not too sure how much time he will miss. Wait for scans and see what the medicos say.
* Max King was on the back of some good work. When they transition easily from the back half the ball is coming in without pressure. You could be Alex Rance, Steve Silvagni and all those guys and you're not going to have a chance. Our guys are trying their best but when you've got a clear leading lane and a crisp pass you and me could get that kick and mark. Don't get me wrong King is a special player and he's finishing was elite as well. So it's easy to look at the outcome but there's bigger issues further upfield for us at that stage.
* Gresham got more it. We got overrun. We had to move Broady deeper who was very good for us. We just couldn't get it done. Their forwards were very good and they moved the ball extremely well in the second half especially that last 1.5 quarters. What they do well is they win contests and as soon as they get a sniff they're gone. When they get the game on their terms in the contests they are hard to stop. So all credit to them.
* The competition is even. Sometimes you're going to come up against a side that is travelling very well and there's other sides that aren't travelling well. It's too early to predict. They are a good side. When they are playing their best footy they are a very capable side and a capable side in contending. As are 15-16 other sides us included. When you have a bit of an off quarter like we did tonight it certainly can hurt you on the scoreboard the other way.
* Last quarter fade-outs?
I'd like to say not to read too much into it but as you say it's happened. So we'll go to work. Carlton game was contested ball and fundamentals and today was the same. So we'll look at those contests. Funnily enough there were stages where we had an outnumber at those contests but just couldn't win it. They were cleaner, tougher and got the ball forward. So there's things we've got to better in that one.
* Stack - didn't play VFL due to being a close contact.
* Riewoldt - wanted to play but Dimma didn't think he was right. Jack wasn't happy as he's very competitive. He could be missing two fingers and want to play. He's a warrior. He'll back into the side next week.
* We'll look at the 3 talls. It worked at stages. Is 5 too many? We'll go through it and see what works for us. Look at the opposition and what presents there. Work our way through it at selection. We've got 6 days to come up against a good Bulldogs outfit that was good the other night.
* Dusty - no nothing new.

Dimma always goes to the stats after a disappointing loss.
Sorry but surely you can coach around discipline or poor tackling technique?? Cop out to Blame only the players.
You can start with dropping players who consistently give away 50mtr penalties.

Maybe he needs to look at the types doing the damage. Steele and Crouch two big bodied mids slaughtered us in contested ball clearances and tackles inside.
These big bodied mids are regularly getting hold of us yet we do nothing.

Not like we have any ourselves, like RCD or Ross haha.
I know let's draft a HBF and see if he can go inside in 2 years.

Dimma complaining about close contact rules. Well tell me how did it effect stacks non selection in round 2 ahead of duds like aarts and Ross?
He can complain all he likes, but if he keeps going down the same well the result will be like what we saw last night.

I just watched presser in full.
I know the HUN has jumped on his comments to make it political and yes he said it but it was half in jest. Journo who asked the question about Stack not playing said " no Stack today is there an issue there?" ::)
But agree Frankie, silly comment for Dimma to make. Reeks of deflection
-
Just picked up today's HUN
Dimma's comment is the front page headline
"Dimma -v- Dan" it screams
::)

I ageee with Dimma. The rule is stupid.

he isn’t the only one. Goodwin now also, and probably most of the coaches who have a brain would also agree.
That said i actually dont give a flying stuff in the context that dimma is complaining about. If he wanted stack in the team then god knows how he didnt make it in after the round 1 disaster.
Stop deflecting.

Yep fair point. He should have been in the team already

here is a thought to this dumb whoever she is. STFU. Bombers supporter so she would know about cheating.
Goodwin has nothing to complain about, but..........

The AFL on Monday seemingly moved to distance itself from those comments.
"We maintain the same position as we have for the last two years that the health and safety of everyone in the community is paramount and we are led by the relevant state governments regarding the protocols that are required to continue to keep the community safe and well," the AFL said in a statement to AFL.com.au.
"The work of everyone on the front line of the ongoing COVID pandemic – nurses, doctors, healthcare workers - has been nothing short of incredible and we thank them for their continued dedication and sacrifice, and we will continue to play our role in doing what we can to support their efforts in keeping the community safe."

The AFL has become a department if the government . Can we keep non football politics out of the AFL
-
The AFL is a mouth piece for corruption. Lets not forget the supplements scandal and more recently dimwitriou's comments. Ooh and who could forget shockings efforts to destroy us by watching our dynasty on repeat.
Who could forget their stance on marriage equality. Surprised they didnt instruct all players to take the knee.
There was nothing wrong with those comments in isolation, as Goodwin perfectly articulated, but as a long time supporter i dont want to hear Dimmas hypocritical views. He had his chance to play him the week before and decided to run our vets into the ground instead
Lastly I’m still waiting for that dumb bimbo to acknowledge goodwins comments or doesn’t it suit her at this point in time, as he “won”
-
Dimma has posted on Twitter his comment was totally tongue in cheek
Pity the media missed it.

To clarify, my comments post-match regarding rules around close contacts were a tongue in cheek reference to the fact we missed Sydney Stack on the wknd. Nothing more. People far better placed than myself put these rules in place to support the efforts of our health care workers.

:lol Peggy into his ear no doubt just like when he ripped the covid wall paper off a few years back in the club rooms.
Why haven’t the media mentioned Goodwin at all?

Basically the same poo as Dimma just a different smell and a little less direct.
No one including the bimbo failed to mention it (goodwins comments) because he is winning? Instead her and others said Dimma words was because we lost.

Ummm actually Ch7 showed Goodwin making his nothing comments about how frustrating the rules are
As I said I watched the presser in full and it was certainly made in jest but the media in particular the Murdoch media and Ch7 had to make it a headline

Hardwicks comments were on channel 9, triple m. Sen etc
I dont watch the news on a daily basis, and perhaps you shouldn't either if you dislike them so much? Funny the ones who complain are those who read or watch their dribble on a daily basis.
Anyway i digress. You dislike others for reporting garbage, then you would also have an issue with this fool for engaging?
I think Damien Hardwick’s comments were probably more about frustration at the result of a game of football,” she said.
she is just as bad as the people you have mentioned IMV. She went early then
Goodwin opened his mouth.

If Dimma wants to talk "fundamentals" then he should teach our boys to shepherd for each other.
For something drilled into kids playing junior footy, shepherding really has become a lost art.
What the hell is Ralphsmith doing here? Shepherd is a low effort, high reward play here.

Like Hugo but atm he's completely defensively unaccountable in the grand Richmond tradition of Campbell, Newman & Shortsteps....hopefully unlike them he'll eventually grow out of it..either way....Aints shepherding really stood out ....probably due to the stark contrast with our peeweak, non-existent efforts...as has been the case for 12 months ...stars might be old & kids might be raw and the dynasty might be done & dusted but there's no excuse for that shyte...and we won't be building the next dynasty without hard work & effort, no matter who we draft or recruit... :shh

My favourite Dow moment was a shepherd he provided in a centre clearance. Can’t remember who for or when but here’s hoping it wasn’t a once off :clapping
