Autopsy Roast & Toast v Bulldogs and Changes for Adelaide

[Coach_Required]

but we can shape them

Yep % boost to who ever plays us lol

 

[Coach_Required]

Will we win another game this year?

Highly doubtful IMO

 

[Danog]

So many passengers and terrible players out there today. I want effort and basic skills.

Out: Balta, Smith, Sonsie, Sims (rest)
In: Blight, Tresize, McAuliffe, Fawcett/Lefau

McIntosh to the wing.

 

[Azzleberry]

5 other sides have gone down to the dogs by over 70 this season

Glad it didn’t blow out any more it could of quite easily

Midfield group need a bake, our backs are getting stomped on from repeat entries and our forwards barely see any

Dogs didn't get out of about 3rd gear all game. Some of those other games they had everything going right for them. If they had one of those days against us this would've been much larger.

 

[tunksy]

inb4 the only change we make next week is Short in for Alger....

should be steely for alger.

 

[Groupie_]

algers nan came all the way from port douglas and didnt get to see alger debut

 

[sabso]

Didn’t see first qtr
2nd slaughtered
3rd slaughtered but we got on the scoreboard
4th almost even but too many cheap goals given away

Bont and Darcy are absolute guns. Balta played like an absolute spud. Kids are getting experience but they’re being taught to play roles it seems and when the game doesn’t go as expected they don’t step outside their roles. Efforts from faull and Trainor though so it’s the second or third years mostly

 

[Coach_Required]

Remember when we had posters who wanted us to throw big money at Naughton a few years ago? lol

 

[sabso]

How did we fare?

Was it a better performance than the Swans game?

Open the poll please

Richards as well
Bloke can play

Easy to see why he’s the top rated player in the comp right now

Ahahaha I was going to write the same thing!

Maybe Taranto sub so Kmac can get more midfield time because of his versatility

 

[PetterdHoisted]

Hope Yze gets a question about Doc

Almost nothing of interest on the Richmond side, Faull toils away and will grow, thank god for Lynch. otherwise just very vanilla or poor.

Dogs you could talk about all day, so many interesting and talented players

LOL

Could be worse, Smith family flew over from WA to travel to Geelong in a rain drenched game to watch not only us lose by 10plus goals but also he only came on to play last 10mins.

 

[beema limapep]

Alger as sub was more dissapointing than the result.

 

[voorhees]

adelaide and Geelong the next two up.
Things don't get any easier

 

[Bird Man]

Balta is having his worst season this year.

His head is all over the place and he just signed a 7 year contract. That contract makes a trade impossible

 

[LTT]

What an awful match. Disappointing.

Drop Balta, don’t want to see him play AFL next week. Reward current form over history

Drop Yze, Why would he put Balta on Darcy and leave him on him when Miller is the obvious matchup. You need to ask, is this blind faith by Yse or does he have no game day strategy.

 

[Truetiger]

Banks 34games.
Trainor 14
Campbell 35
Smith 11
Faull 10
Brown 32
Green 20
Sims 6
Alger 1

9 players today with less then 40games. That’s why we are losing. Mostly kids like it or not.

 

[sanaya]

What do you mean by "continue"? This is the first time we've done it this year.

probably because it's not the first time yze has done it

 

[SnakeMan86]

Ben miller is an extremely good full back. If the ball wasn't coming in 150 times he'd be All Australian

 

[RichmondEshays]

Hopper and prestia with 19 each is unacceptable. Hopper is 28 in the prime of his career and he cannot compete with the likes of richards and libba. Not good enough

 

[dothebowdenshuffle]

What an awful match. Disappointing.

Drop Balta, don’t want to see him play AFL next week. Reward current form over history

Yep totally agree. And while we're at it put him and his contract on trade table and pay part of it to offload him. I'd rather see time put into Blight and when Gibcus comes back in a few weeks time Balta is surplus. When you look at how a blue collar guy like Miller goes about it and then compare that with Balta's lackadaisical approach he really is a disgrace and a very poor leader.

 

[Truetiger]

poll open

 

[TigerCanMan]

it's actually hard to see where we will get another win from this year , lucky we banked a few when we did I just think they have nothing to lose play all the available kids and shut up shop for 2025 ..will admit Ben miller has been very good he has surprised me my only real positive from today

Balta's game was inexplicable

was he concussed in the warm up?
