Game Day Round 22, 2022: Richmond v Hawthorn, MCG 1:10pm

[TBoyleSuperstar]

Not a lot of positives to date.
Finn still doing his job on Bolton well. Our defence has collapsed, our forward has zero spark and you’d be forgiven for thinking we don’t practice midfield work at all at training.
Frustrating

When your midfield, besides Newc is as bad as ours and your forward line contains Kozzie, Shiels and Impey, then you are in big trouble.

FTFY

Every time they all get sucked into the contest and we are beaten on the outside. Amazing this still hasn't been fixed in 3-4 years it has been happening

 

[blockman155]

Can we try Impey in defence? He is not a forward.

 

[Fleabane]

******* hell, a good old fashioned demolition job.

Struggling to know what to call it. What’s worse than a pantsing?

 

[SSSSSS]

Can we try Impey in defence? He is not a forward.

He's not a defender either going by this year.

Newc has been pretty awful today as well

 

[deanc]

Need some muscle and mongrel. Can cop losing but show some fight.

Almost beyond that now, how about just retain possession for more than 5 seconds, which may at least prevent a 100 point flogging..!

Makes you wonder why we sold (another part of) the farm to get him across.

 

[Nastyfish]

Jeez that was hard to watch. The backs look terrible but it’s on our pedestrian midfield, and on our cooked forwards. They are so much quicker and purposeful than our bunch of plodders. Big changes required.

I don’t mind if we finish with the bitter taste of defeat as the motivator for the off-season.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

We really miss CJ today

We've really missed Lewis, CJ, Frost, Chad and Noodle... to be fair. They'd all have in impact on how we're playing today, but it is what it is.

Should have moved up a spot in the draft by the end of the game... there's a positive, haha

 

[westhawk]

He’s a VFL player at best. I don’t know if I want to punish Box Hill by playing him there either.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

In what world did we sell the farm to recruit Impey?

 

[SSSSSS]

I'm going to lose my ******* head if Dom even tries to defend Mitchell this week.

Should be an automatic card IMHO.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Unfortunately it’s a bit of a classic JOM game today.

He has a run of good form then in a big game against a strong opponent he basically goes missing.

Been a recurring theme at his time in the Hawks.

If today was a trial run for captaincy between JOM and Sicily to me Sicily is miles ahead as he is such a dependable player (probably been close to our best today yet again).

 

[Stottzy]

I would have just left DGB on Lynch. Wasn't doing that bad. Couple of those goals weren't his fault. Liked how he was showing some aggression and annoying Lynch. It's what backman should be doing.

 

[blackheart]

There’s some real reactionary s**t takes in this thread because a team that is fighting to make finals. And are far more experienced, has turned it on against us, who cannot beat top teams at this stage regularly.

Here’s an idea. While we’re trying to some things, how about not allowing Richmond to have a spare in defence?

 

[LunchboxLegend]

Can we try Impey in defence? He is not a forward.

at the moment, he is not an AFL footballer.

 

[TassieGrown]

Tried him down back, he ain’t a back man either

 

[MinerBoy]

Impey looks so far off it right now

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Oh great, the worst player to ever win 3 flags is on the ground, and will no doubt Ronke us.

A rogering

Set up for another miss
