VFL R5: Richmond vs Casey Demons @ Punt Rd, Sun. April 24

[Knighter]

Have really lacked the kick in board to the middle of the ground from half back. 
Time to take the game on.
Quarter time.  1 point lead to Dee's.
Good game

It was on every time but no one was prepared to pull the trigger. Really poor coaching

Clearly lack a tall forward or 2.
Youngsters going well though
Clarke looks great, as does Banks.

Agree both look composed. Clarke likes to take players on.

Street bumped in the head on the ground and no free

Lefau with the high centering ball and Olden reads it better than anyone else and marks 25 out. Misses  .

56 - 57

That was poor by Maurice on the wing. Ballwatched and waited for a ball that was there to get and it's cost us a goal.

56 - 63

Costly miss, goal them. 7 points

[pmac21]

Number 33 for them has absolutely smashed us today off half back.

I’m not sure why when he’s the fastest on the ground. Very poor effort he would have won it if he attacked it.

[pmac21]

Fatigue is a factor.  13 points now. 

[one-eyed]

You would think with a smaller forward line we'd be more mobile to lead up but our high forwards are always behind and slow to react.

Another goal to Casey on the rebound.

56 - 69


Can't see us coming back. We've only kicked two goals since 1/4 time  .

[pmac21]

Feel very sorry for Sampson Ryan
Zero support available most of the time having to ruck the whole game. 

 

[pmac21]

Needed to recruit a big country ruckman.

[one-eyed]

Game over!

56 - 76

[pmac21]

20 points now and game over. 
They can hold their heads up high, they tried hard but just undermanned and eventually overwhelmed. 

Is Mate Colina ever going to play.  Who cares if he's no good, just need the extra tall.
