Autopsy R7 Roast & Toast and Changes for Geelong R8

[JAKLAUGHING]

Awful player. Always has been. Rioli and Aarts cop it but this guy is living off kicking 5 behinds in a Grand Final.

Cut Lunch also kicked 5 behinds last night too...living the dream also...

The dogs thought that they were the Harlem Globe Trotters and had no idea what to do when the Washington Senators turned out to be the Chicago Bulls.

I was surprised Stefan Martin is still playing pretty well. Kind've looks like Nank n 7 or 8 years down the track. 250 games under the belt. Anyhow one ruck is working, Pickett not giving away frees & winning hit outs is great. Lynch does OK up fwd, but should study Hawkins. He seems to Push his opponent out of the way and grab the ball which is gangerous up fwd

efa

 

[Royce Hafey]

Naish came on with 3 minutes to go and did more than those three.

That one disposal he had must have been very good.

 

[SouthernStripes]

Maybe I’m the only one who sees this AFL conspiracy but tell me this mofos. Have YOU ever seen Macaulay Calkin and Josh Schace in the same room??!!

 

[DontArgue4]

Anyone see the in the song, rcd is next to grimes and is the same height as him. Hes actually massive for a mid and i thought he used his size well with the clearances he got and tackles he laid.

Hope he gets an extended run, looked the goods imo

 

[joelsyt]

There is a reason Aarts rhymes with Farts. He had a shocker tonight and I would not be surprised he will be dropped. He had 4 contests in the first half, lost all of them and cost us 2 goals.

But his tackling in forward 50 in the second half was off the charts, umpires just didn’t reward him for it. I could be wrong but I think he’ll be playing next week.

 

[Foley#41]

Did Cotch fake an injury to get Naishy on? I hope so. Back to his best. But yeah, if Cotch OUT & Dusty IN. Rossy probs keeps his spot. Naish almost earnt a proper game after his cameo. I'd like to see some new faces as small fwd. Baker has shown the standard. Rioli better.
If they want a defensive minded player as a small fwd Mansell for Aarts/George.

Cotch not actually injured.

He left the ground because he was feeling sad and conflicted about Dimma’s marriage breakup.

Oh gee, baker up forward and shai up forward showed some how it’s done.

Long term FWD structure

Out: Rioli, Castagna, Aarts,
In: Baker, Bolton, CCJ

Mansel keeps Bakers spot when Vlastuin is fit.

 

[RobsJourney]

Great story of Liam Baker.
What a great get and a testament to the strength of our team.
Picked up in the rookie draft.
Actually made his AFL debut in the Power game in 2019 that Dimma referred to.

Had played before that

 

[STRUGGLETOWN EST1885]

It's no coincidence Balta has a great game when relieved of all ruck and forward duties. We need to keep the game simple for him.

Also on RCD, 14 that's about as good as you can expect on debut from a pretty low possession player like him. Very happy with his output. Those expecting 25 touch games from him need to realign. He's an impact player like late career Cotch and mid-career Edwards.

Great call mate. RCD has a real appetite for the contest. There was a bit a play in the 3rd qtr where he outmuscled McCrae I think from a centre bounce play, won the ball with a tap on to Bolton which resulted in a goal when we were starting to roll. Got me jumping off the couch with excitement.

 

[All Aust]

Josh Sniper Bruce is a ******* SPUD

What i did like, was the response from the Tiges. Could smell of Doggie poop when it was made clear that Bruce was out of order. JB started running under and away from the ball after that!
Tiges banished the doggies to the back of the kennel.

 

[tigerdan]

fu** me BT is the worst fu**en caller ever
He doesn’t even hide his hatred towards Richmond
He’s beyond unprofessional
AFL is a basket case in every way

I have not watched the footy with sound turned up for about 3 years.

You don't miss a thing.

 

[tigerdan]

Awful player. Always has been. Rioli and Aarts cop it but this guy is living off kicking 5 behinds in a Grand Final.

I'm assuming you're gosha, right?

George has had 2 quiet games but I wouldn't be dropping him yet.

Can't believe I once wanted us to recruit him. What a Muppet lol

Seems like a nice kid

That’s the problem
He needs some campaigner

Even my wife, a football nuffie called that one too!!

Sensational!!

 

[_Wang_]

Still pumped campaigners

Thought they would spank us

RCD looked like he belonged

Go tiges

 

[Loyal tiger]

spot on about aarts. Pretty stiff calls when he was determined to be holding the ball and others were let go.
Unfortunately he still looks a little bit behind the pace of AFL, but he does give it a good crack

Great one on one effort at the end of the game as well to set up a goal if I remember rightly (might have had several beers, so the brain is a bit fuzzy on details!!)...

 

[Loyal tiger]

Geez Nank is underrated ! His bone crunching tackles would have to take a toll on whoever is on the receiving end of them

I thought he was out to murder someone in the first half!! Unreal stuff!!

 

[Michaels]

I haven't read all 25 pages yet.

But I want to highlight how good Dan Rioli was last night.

Being there live you saw how bloody hard he worked to chase, pressure, tackle etc.

Some monumental running efforts by him often for no reward with the ball, but it played a part in the final outcome of the passage of play.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

******* rubbish. We got shafted a pile of free kicks that the dogs got for similar transgressions. We should of been 10+ in free kicks if both teams were refereed to the same standard.

Once again we get called to play on almost straight away while the oppo gets its full allotted time.
So obvious its almost funny.

Baker was interviewed after the game and was asked what it’s like playing forward and he mentioned how hard Rioli works.

 

[tiger_tough]

Noticed RCD lined up on Bont at stoppages for the first half at least. Big learning experience and Bont had 1 clearance for the half.

 

[Punt Road Feral]

It’s probably been covered and don’t want to be too negative on the kid but I’m not getting the BF hype over Ross.

RCD was much more influential in his debut and just seemed like that contested presence that we needed.

In a time when we’ve got Lambo, Dusty and Prestia out there’s a spot he can stamp for himself but he’s just not doing enough for me.
