Game Day Round 12 2019: Richmond vs Geelong MCG 7:50pm

[Lsta062]

Yes, we have injuries, but we only have one player out from our forward line - Riewoldt. Big out, but I’m pretty sure our forwards used to kick a score without him. Kicking 2* goals in a half is not acceptable.

Also, I think this game is showing that our smalls have been exposed this season. None of them had a good season and since their pressure dipped, they no longer are having a positive impact in our team.

Midfield is copping a bathing right now. That is just something we lack in whether or not we have injuries so this isn’t much different to expectations.

Defence was good in the first quarter, but reverted to being poor like expected. Astbury is a big out and Garthwaite simply cannot handle Hawkins. How is Lynch triple-teamed yet we let Garthwaite play 1-on-1 against Hawkins?

F&@k off dan butler! How does he get a game

 

[SunshineBoy]

The slide should be reviewed by the MRO but it’s a cats player so it won’t be, Macca one week

 

[peterand]

I remember a few years ago someone told me that Mark Williams said Butler is the worst kick at our club... I can see why he said that...

He is a dud a total dud and how he gets a game in front of Bolton l don’t know
He will need a huge second half to get another game
Also our other smalls have been super quiet especially that quarter

 

[Sterge]

Am I allowed to critique Lynch now?

Go nuts I've been doing it for weeks

No he isn’t

Clubs dont pay big bucks to players if they aren’t up to it

He's garbage mate

 

[TigerImposter]

No he isn’t

Tyrone says hi.

 

[BKM78]

Lynch is a momentum killer, I wan't him to go so well but 900K I just can't see the worth

Chill bloke. He is a long term investment. It's waaaay too early to make that call.

 

[TJASTA]

Surely we can now.
When JR8 can't get into the game, he would at least push forward and try win his own ball. I would like to see Lynch put in more effort up the ground if he is struggling up forward.

Oh gee maybe due to his PCL lol

 

[Tony Harrison]

Will be interesting how they spin that one, "Umm yeah, was the same malfunction that happened last week" heads must roll.

I think it happens every week lol

 

[smurfin]

any one at home see a replay of Higgins goal/behind? Looked like a clear goal where I'm sitting. Have no idea how the ump could say it hit the post from where he was standing.

They showed a few shit angles from right on the line from which you could resolve nothing except that it wasn't touched until over. So had to go umpires call which was touched post - behind. Then straight after that they show a proper view in which you can clearly see it didn't get near the post.
Absolute joke.

what does he offer ? vickery would do more lol

 

[DustinsGuns]

Can lynch get on his bike and get up the ground?
I don’t buy this no preseason bullshit. He’s played for 3 months now. He has miles on his legs

 

[peterand]

Lynch has been shithaus again FM

Very hard to beat one on two
He is getting ball to ground but where r the smalls

 

[luke walsh]

No mark in first quarter, bullshit score review, no deliberate running the ball thru for a behind, no free for taking legs out. AFL and umps, your a bunch of cheats. Why don't Geelong ever get called for holding the ball

 

[DustinsGuns]

what does he offer ? vickery would do more lol

At least vickery went into the ruck

It’s an amateur competition

 

[Ashman OG]

Yet we drop a big bodied defender in broad when astbury is out.
Dumbest shit ever ratugolea and hawkins having a contested marking field day

 

[Sterge]

Houli is nowhere near as good as what people on here would make out. Lots of cheap kicks and rarely do they end up penetrating through the opposition press/zone. I would rather the ball in Edwards, Vlastuin and Stacks hand as its more likely to get to the forward line.

He gave up like 6 goals due to direct turnovers last week

 

[Sir_Rancelot]

Unless the club makes a stand nothing is going to happen, but they are all too gutless to say anything

 

[DustinsGuns]

Very hard to beat one on two

Nah.

He’s been terrible.

Doesn’t get to contests in time upbthe line. Drops easy marks. Missed two easy goals

 

[tora tora tora]

rance finals confirmed

love your optimism

 

[Shazza_]

If we don’t bring the pressure in the second half we will be pumped

we dont have any pressure anymore. it died half way through 2018

 

[Tigerish09]

Lynch has a poor marking technique

And poor kicking technique, in fact what are his strengths? Bank account maybe.

 

[Tenacious T]

Clearly Lynch’s lack of leap is a Problem.
At GC he was jumping over packs, but haven’t seen that to date.

 

[Tiger Claw]

No he isn’t

Fair dues. If that was Jack in those positions then different story. Lynch is a different player and doesn't get it yet or will never be Jack in reading the ball and making things happen.

Lynch looks like a robot who hadn't got the right program.
