Rohan on track for a 40+ goal season atm

Didn't the resident geniuses state he was no good?

 

[giantroo]

20k fine

 

[Hearts to hearts]

20k fine

Well, I bet they are sorry now.

 

[King Corey]

20k fine

He said Shiel would earn up to $20,000 a year in wages, but receive “invaluable experience and first-hand opportunities to invest in future projects as all staff do”.

Well at least they know how they'll pay it.

That Army guy did a pretty good job of Advance Australia Fair, in my humble opinion.

How do you have 80,000 people there tonight, clean up and then back up tomorrow with another 95,000 ?

Cleaning company would be working overtime.

 

[Silver finger]

That's the reason why I didn't choose Richmond for supporting. People around me follow this team are pretty mush same as this idiot.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Martin flat out refused to chase or tackle through the middle.

Melbourne are worse defensively than we are.

Slow, plodding, one-way.

Slow, plodding, one-way.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. Also Terrible inside 50 entries and heaps of critical fumbling.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Petracca is ******* nowhere.

Former pick 2 who has no impact on the field.

Worse than Simpkin.

 

[wolvesRoos]

all the neutral games I watch seem to be so low scoring.

Melbourne are worse defensively than we are.

Slow, plodding, one-way.

6–6-6 exposes the slower contested sides from previous years. North, Melbourne & Sydney all struggling.

The game has been ruined by terrible rule changes. I heard Wayne Carey comment that the mistake a player made was taking possession, and he was right in the context of the modern game. It has become about slaps, tap-ons and forcing the ball forward rather than a proper skilled touch. When a player is tackled they can spin round twice and if they have their arms free still dish of a handball but if you tackle them into the ground chances are you give away a free. Also if they are in possession when they are tackled and the ball is 'knocked out' in the tackle it's not incorrect disposal but rather a free for holding the man.

The weids been ordinary and tom mc not a shadow of his 2018 form.

 

[Billy Not Really]

I reckon we play the exact same way.

s**t coming out of defence, slow, unskilled, turnover merchants.

We couldn't possibly look anymore alike Melbourne. Its really glaring to watch.

We should try to get Tom McDonald, he is exactly the sort of player we need (and would fit right in with our current form)

Precisely.

No extra men running in off the square to clog up space.

If only we'd had someone in a position to see the impact this is having...

 

[Only Forwards]

all the neutral games I watch seem to be so low scoring.

All the games are low scoring.

I did a small amount of analysis on the first 4 rounds compared to 10 years ago.

Something like 13 occasions 100 points kicked by a side this year compared to 29 times in 09.

Scoring is definitely down, 666 has reduced the congestion, but increased the safety with which teams play.

I think if you could do stats on the amount of backwards kicks this season would lead by some way.

 

[wolvesRoos]

yeah something needs to be done about all this knocking on business, looks terrible.
