Richmond Rant / Re: Forward line
« Last post by Hard Roar Tiger on January 10, 2026, 09:01:57 AM »
We scored at 42.3% which put us at 17th place overall.  The best rating was Geelong at 52.6%, which makes for just over a 10% difference between the best & second worst ...

That screams a significant result at me - NOBODY IS ANY GOOD AT KICKING INTO THEIR FORWARD 50!  It's not just us, everybody is just ordinary at doing it.   

Even the best side are losing possession 47.4% of the time!  It's close enough to pot luck, even for the best at it.  That leaves plenty of room for a rapid improvement!         

I also see it as significant opportunity for us. As the midfield improves I am optimistic it will trigger improvement to the forward line.

I would hazard a guess and say that is because of the way we bring the ball in and fail to hit targets inside fifty.

Agree with you
It’s like a 16yo fan wrote it
