VFL R11: Richmond vs Sandringham @ Trevor Barker Beach Rd Oval, Sat. June 26

[Francois Jackson]

52 sandy
40 tigers

Playing really poor esp the AFL listed

[one-eyed]

Caddy run down forward of centre.

From the resulting play we give away a 50 and gift them another goal  .

40 - 58

[Francois Jackson]

Caddy is cooked

No way he plays next week.

[one-eyed]

How dumb was that! Martyn with the free in the middle passes 10m to Caddy who is instantly tackled. Use your brains Tiges!

[one-eyed]

Did we forget how to play footy this week?

Missing target after target which puts us under pressure yet we're unaware there's an opponent right behind us  .

[one-eyed]

Why when you have the free would you handball 1m sideways so the man on the mark can tackle your teammate?

[one-eyed]

Another goal to Sandy.

40 - 66

This is just as bad as last night  .

We look cooked. No run whatsoever and with Tiger players hunched over halfway through the 3rd qtr.

[one-eyed]

This game is Sandy waiting for us to fail to hit a target (which is many times) and then they rebound for a scoring shot.

40 - 68

[one-eyed]

Could run by Hugo from half-back. He runs on and pings from 50 but it's marked on the line by a Sandy defender.

We get it back. Ross finds Parker just inside 50. The kick deep is marked by a Sandy defender.

 

[one-eyed]

OMG we actually got a goal. Melville snap.

Rich      7.4-46
Sandy  10.8-68

[one-eyed]

Hugo's kick inside 50 is a grubber. Martyn picks it up under pressure and kicks a point.

47 - 68

[one-eyed]

The lack of a tall forward is hurting us. We bomb it long and can't get a mark.

Stuffed up another chance because we can't hit a target by hand or foot  . Handballing to teammate's feet  .

Street unloads from 60 metres out, the ball clears the pack and dribbles through  .

Rich      8.5-53
Sandy 10.8-68

[one-eyed]

We've now lifted. Showing some intensity and winning contests.

Dow fans by hand to Naish who goals  .

Rich      9.5-59
Sandy 10.8-68

[one-eyed]

3/4 time

Richmond        4.1    6.3      9.5-59
Sandringham   2.1    7.3    10.9-69

Goals: Collier-Dawkins 2, Street 2, Naish 2, Dow, Cumberland, Melville.

How are Dow and RCD looking? We really need them to come on.
