Richmond vs GWS - Round 3, 2019

[julzqld]

Pardon my ignorance but who’s squib?

Brandon “sleep with the light on” Ellis

lol - totally agree

[big tone]

Graham has been putrid! Worst game I have seen him play.
Bellis has been Bellis- hard to believe anyone can stick up for him.
McIntosh 💩
Astbury a shadow of his past- lost without Rance’s help
Garthwaite a poor mans Astbury.
Cotchin returned to his 2016 form of dinky rushed kicking.
Prestia horribly out of form
Dusty worse than Prestia.

We will lose today.

Stack been great.

Our small forwards need to lift bigtime.


Stack good tackle on Daniels. Out to nank at HB. To Higgins on the wing. Further on to markov who chips to Lambert. Goes long to 2-v-2. Quick kick to the goalsquare is gathered by the Giants but Stack cuts it off on 50 and finds Kmac. Hits the post. Another miss   .

41 - 55

[mightytiges]

Prestia tries to burst through. Markov to Sheds clever to Rioli who runs in and goals! 

Rich  6.11-47
GWS  8.7-55

[mightytiges]

Cotch to Dusty couple of bounces to Kmac. Goes long .. Rioli flies ... but the Giants clear.

Once again they waltz forward so easily  . Thankfully this miss.

47 - 56

[mightytiges]

That's schoolboy defending . To allow a goal like that from the goalsquare  .

47 - 62

[mightytiges]

Higgins 1-2 with Rioli and Lynch marks. Goal! 

Lynch has 3.

Rich  7.11-53
GWS  9.8-62

[julzqld]

Cotch needs to tell Dusty to pull his head and the defence to pull their fingers out

[mightytiges]

They are getting their goals far too easily.

It's either a transition under no pressure or a centre clearance for a mark and goal  .

53 - 68

[mightytiges]

Mumford slam-dumps Prestia into the ground.

Prestia's kick towards Ellis is intercepted.

Another goal to them on the transition turnover  .

53 - 74


If it game keeps going on like this we won't win.

[julzqld]

Who’s on Whitfield’s?
Astbury is lost without Rance

[Francois Jackson]

One man team we are

No rance no Richmond

[mightytiges]

Ellis kick-in goes to Davis .

It's going to be a long year if this is what we will be dishing up .

53 - 81

[mightytiges]

They get their goals so easily and we stuff up our chances  .

54 - 81
