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

[db26]

Stop going on about umpires. Umpires aren't the reason we get it inside 50 and don't score. Umpires aren't the reason we can't hit targets. Once teams work out our pressure we don't have much else.

Look we don't get the rub of the green, but all your points valid. Sometimes we just play dumb footy and dont the basics.

 

[NaturalDisaster]

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

The afl would just silence anyone who tries. Isn’t worth it

 

[Antzzz]

Just looked at the vision. Looked like a clear goal, just as it did from where I'm sitting.

Is there any reason why the umpire can't say I have no idea? Because he clearly had no idea and just made something up

and the video umpire guessed.....this review thing is a shambles

 

[tora tora tora]

what does he offer ? vickery would do more lol

ty rucked at least

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

We were never going to win with so many out and injured...and it's hard for a side to play well together with so many new faces...prolly even harder when they all come back in it's been so long!

 

[Tigerbob68]

Naish 7th for us on the rankings on the AFL website. Nice!

No mark in first quarter, ******** 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

yep bloke didn't mark it, that's 6 points to geelol. goal review that should've just been called a goal from the start, 5 points, rushed behind not called, 0 points but could've helped us score. trying to break Tigs players shins no free, 6 points. margin would by 17 lower maybe more if umps could do their job properly

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Should only be 2 goals down.

 

[Tony Harrison]

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

It's not the one on two's it's the continuous running under the ball and dropping gimmes tonight.
Add that he's got slow hands and and his kicking has been woeful (one area that he's usually good at).

 

[TheTick]

I feel like Lynch has no read on the ball in flight. There are so many that he runs underneath or has it drop on his head. I get that the delivery could be better at times, but he's always in the wrong spot, and I find it difficult to believe that every delivery from every player into the forward line is bad every time.

 

[joelsyt]

I’m not going to join in the Lynch bashing.

Just watch him you can see his confidence is already on a thread.

He’s not fit and he definitely came back too early, we probably should have given him until about Round 3 or 4.

I’m so worried what this is doing to his confidence.

All forwards (actually all AFL players) need that confidence.

I’m hoping he can have a big game some time soon because if anyone needs it it’s him.

However he’s not the Lone Ranger out there, we have a lot of players out of form and low on confidence.

We really need to start getting some players back from injury and we need some small things to start going our way.

ty rucked at least

lynch is pretty much what anyone would be if they were 200cm and played afl . hes really useless if he cant mark it and he never marks it

 

[_RT_]

Higgins has been terrible this year. Not sure why he hasn’t been dropped yet

He didn't get drunk in Mildura

 

[Sir_Rancelot]

We just can't kick a winning score anymore, something has to change

 

[TigerTime_89]

I'm happy thus far.
Geelong won't know what hit em when we meet in finals.
Half a side ATM.

We have to make finals first. Going to be a struggle.

 

[peterand]

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

Defence has gone ok Broad not up to it
Got smashed in clearance that quarter our smalls very ordinary how Butler gets a game in front of Bolton who knows

 

[biaseddustyfan]

kid being interviewed by hamish is off her face

too much spiked red cordial

 

[DustinsGuns]

Leah Naish is a milf

 

[LOZWILDA]

The Tigers struggling with the pressure being applied.......
Only by the Umpires and our poor forward entries.

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.

No cojones, afraid we might upset the umps.....lol

we won't make finals

 

[69vintage]

Need to change up the midfield ,
Why not try titch ,stack on the ball even Higgins into the centre bounces where he has a good winning % .
Balta into the ruck .

Baker, Butler, Rioli making Bolton look good. Can’t have them and Higgins all playing against good teams unless a couple of them at least can be effective as Midfielders

Can the Towno lovers remind me what he does?

True, but I want him clunking the easy marks and kicking the easy/moderately difficult goals.. It’s what we want our tall forwards to do and unfortunately I haven’t been seeing a whole lot of that from him.

Not writing him off because I am happy to wait for him to improve, but I want to see him play a bigger role in our team than just bringing the ball down to our smalls. Riewoldt played a much bigger role than that.
