NAB Cup: Geelong V Richmond @ SS

[Jeremias]

New rule in the NAB Cup this year, Brad Ottens falls over gets a free kick rule!

Excuses board.

Face it, Richmond are crap.

 

[Butane]

Our team is nowhere near full strength.

Early days.

Otto has had his one good game for the month.

LOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOOLOLOOLOOLOOL
Your team is pretty close to full strength and Ottens has only played one game this month. This has to be a contender for worst post of the year.

 

[Shads]

Richmond getting absolutely smashed.

Loving it.

Me too

The sad thing is your team IS near full stength.

It's now obvious to see why Freo were so keen to get rid of Polak.

Are we at full strength, glad you let us know that Johnson, Simmonds, Shultz, Thursfield ,Pat Bowden and a few others will play ressies all year!!
I was starting to worry about our Coburg line up.

The Cats have been fantastic. Ottens has marked everything that has come his way. Hopefully good signs for the cats in that respect. Junior will become a fully fledged superstar of the game this season. He is so strong thru his hips and im not sure there are too many smarter footballers.

Tigers have been very poor, maybe a little undermanned in height, but not much to be happy with. Our pressure when we dont have the ball was shocking last season and looks like it has gone backwards, and even tho its a pre season game that is a very bad sign.

Foley and tuck have been decent and tambling has been finding the ball even if his disposel hasnt always been the best. Deledio a bit disappointing but looked alright up forward. And Browny looks like he can certainly get back to his best. Not much other then that!!

Polak has been fine, his pace is a bit of a worry but has taken some good marks and just has to get into better positions. That will come with some gametime!!

 

[parano1a]

Both pre-season jumpers looking good, although Richmond could probably do with a tad more black.

Squint and it looks like Hawthorn v Carlton...

I'll pay Simmonds and Johnson, the others are Coburg material.

Yeah fair comment, we will just play a forward line of 5foot10 er's all year.

Making excuses are we.?

I picked up a copy of the definative edition Essendon Excuse book 2007.


All of the excuses are in here.

Tiges did great last quarter without a full strength team.

 

[sante]

Geelong are a better team than us and much more experience in their side. It wasn't that we were undermanned it was our lack of experience.

At least we didn't give up considering it was a 'fun' match.

Foley was good for us. Browny kicking some goals is great to see...how good was that one on the boundary Krakouer tried hard...unlucky to see Richo go down.

Knobel is ********!!!!! Bring back Simmo.

Polak was our best defender IMO. Good start to your new career at Punt Road
