Interesting to see Egan selected.

A week ago she was 1-2 weeks away

Miraculous recovery

Poppy Kelly?   
Richmond taking this competition seriously?
I think not.

Miraculous recovery

Serpell the serpent's sorcery

[one-eyed]

Greiser from 50 on an acute angle gets the first goal. Against the run of play.

Rich  1.1-7
Syd   0.3-3

[one-eyed]

We are the worst tackling club in the every competition. It's either a mistackle or we go high. Seriously, get a proper tackling coach down to Punt Rd.

8 - 9

Quarter time

Richmond   1.2-8
Sydney      1.4-10

Goal: Greiser.


Lucky we're only two points down. Game so far played mostly in Sydney's forward half.

No system. No connection between mids and forwards. Don't protect the defensive side. Great coaching  .

8 - 17

[WilliamPowell]

Embarrassing what they're dishing up so far

Just embarrassing

Throw in the pitiful commentary by Kelli Underwood and this is currently painful

[WilliamPowell]

Poppy Kelly?   
Richmond taking this competition seriously?
I think not. 

Really poor comment

One our most improved last year

[one-eyed]

Conti with the centre clearance hits Greiser on the lead. Goal! 

That's better. Although the centre clearance meant we had space in our F50. Plus Conti is class.

Rich  2.2-14
Syd   2.5-17

[WilliamPowell]

Quite a few MIA at the moment
