AFL 2019 Rd 1: Carlton v Richmond, 7:25pm AEST MCG

[And_ROOS]

I am not sure whats worse, Carltons effort in the first quarter, or Richmond letting them back into the game.

 

[FreoRicci]

macKay has to kick that

 

[davis_756]

He played on, obvious to all bar the umpire

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

I reckon I could kick 3 goals vs. Carlton.

 

[Smeg Head]

On replay, umpire got that completely wrong.

 

[The Filth]

Nice from Higgins - big miss from Mackay

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Weird seeing Simpson with no long sleve jumper.

 

[Mister B]

Yeah he was going full bore ump. Then slowed, then quickened up with three running steps. You're a ******* idiot if you don't think he played on.

 

[AFLOnline]

5 minutes into the 3rd and yes he is now, first half no. If he cut out the squibbing in the first quarter then yes by miles.

Happy with that answer?

Lol keep it moving mate

 

[FUS_RO_DAH]

Kade Simpson looks like he should be shouting in italian with that moustache

 

[Firestarter]

Onya Higgins you bitch arse. Never should've been allowed to do that.

 

[Amarula]

Was Edwards really AA?

 

[gordo2016]

Liam Jones has real s**t positional awareness, what the f*** was he doing?

What did you want him to do? Try saying something intelligent for a change.

 

[And_ROOS]

Do Richmond really need that sort of assistance this early in the season against this level of competition?

 

[Chaisa]

Big Boy Jones and Thomas are a joy to watch, you just know they'll impact the contest every time

I don't get how Daisy is still an AFL footballer.

 

[Dez!]

It was a s**t delivery to defend tbf

He put himself in a position to guard nobody, there is no situation where Jack Riewoldt should be allowed to have a run and jump at the footy like that.

Criticising a player for squibbing while talking up Cotchin. Am I in an alternate timeline or something..?

 

[davis_756]

Imagine how many he would have if he tried harder

Bad game for him and he will still end up with 40 touches and probably a goal

 

[SterlingArcher]

We would have kicked it 5 meters out in front of him or dropped the chest mark.

That was the perfect sit for Jack.

Richmond are a funny team. When they fight hard and play like a good ordinary side their pressure is irrepressible. When they play like millionaires on a victory lap they can let teams in.

It's why I rate them the flag favourites still. They do the basics so well - things you learn at Auskick. Take the marks they should (and use their hands out in front if needed!), shepherd, get the ball moving when under pressure, hit basic targets when you've got time and space. No other club can do these things as well. All the defensive and forward tactics in the world mean jack s**t if you try to take chest marks on the lead or miss simple targets (i.e. the Setterfield to Gibbons kick).

 

[ManOfClay]

Liam Jones has real s**t positional awareness, what the f*** was he doing?

In fairness what should he have done? Went back to guard the goals and in the end it was popped on his head

 

[Oscarman]

He asked about Carlton.

Dallas or San Francisco

 

[Mister B]

Rance belts another player high in the contest and gets away with it again.

 

[Benji85]

Far out Carlton, someone make a decision. Terrible passage of play

 

[captain blood 17]

Rance with one on one footy

The comedy

And the stats

You can criticise cotch for a lot of things but not putting his head over the ball is not one of them
