Game Day 2019 Round 6 Richmond vs Melbourne, 24th April, MCG @7:35pm

[Mogwai]

How and where do you even pull these stats from?

I was tracking since last season but lost count along the way. It's ridiculous how much we lose when we concede more than 40

 

[Tiges1229]

What a shocking game.

Terrible

 

[Tenacious T]

Baker wasteful.
Signs are good however.
Shees are slowing and have no system going forward.

 

[DontArgue4]

How many opportunities have we destroyed going forward?

I get team work, etc but if youre running into 50 open or you have a forward 1v1 ****ing KICK it.

 

[TigerImposter]

Vlas would be leading our bnf

100%

 

[Rubber Hips]

We are winning the clearances 20-16
So too tackle count

Inside 50s
33 us to them 22


Have not put scoreboard pressure on at all...should be a 5 goal lead

 

[Sir_Loin]

Anyone got the latest on Astbury? Did not look good

 

[HTT]

We should be 4 goals up if we didn't **** around with it.

Once again our inaccuracy is keeping a team in it who will get momentum and smell blood soon if we fail to apply scoreboard pressure

Happened countless times in 2018... didnt worry us

 

[tigernsw]

Dees had a bye last weekend, they'll have the legs, could be trouble

 

[Rubber Hips]

If Astbury isn’t right to get back on...well be a man down in a game where last man standing counts

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Contested possession 80-87 big turn around by us that qtr but didn’t put it on the board

Clearances 20-16

Tackles inside 50
11-2

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

He's giving me the shits

In the old days he'd get an errant smack inside a pack (by a teammate) to get his mind on the job.

 

[smurfin]

Umpiring has been reasonable so far.

Missed a few calls, particularly for throws, and a few dropping the balls after plenty of opportunity, such as a Viney drop while applying a fend off - thought that meant prior opportunity?

 

[Wallaby]

Anyone noticed that Ross kid? he looks OK

 

[theflea]

Landed like rance but looks more ankle or lower leg

It was melksham standing on his ankle which then turned over.

 

[cairo tiger]

We need a forward coach ffs caddy reiwoldt abd lynch but we have no system

 

[CASEYS9420]

Ross's hands are so clean and loving Bakers defensive pressure. Melbourne is making us play ugly though

 

[Greggy]

I’m sitting right behind where Astbury did his ankle, Melbourne player pushed him into the contest and he seemed to land awkwardly on his ankle, my first thought was a broken ankle or foot, but hopefully just a bad sprain.

 

[Muddiemoose]

Sydney needs a few more cheapies to pad his stats otherwise he won’t get a rising star nom

 

[RichoLedio]

Ross has looked good in that quarter, absolutely rage inducing game to watch though

 

[fargothegreat]

If Astbury isn’t right to get back on...well be a man down in a game where last man standing counts

Only really half a man down, cos Balta would otherwise only play half the game, but now gets swung down bsck

 

[smurfin]

What happened to Dave? Saw him getting helped off the ground

Looks like a roll of the ankle after landing awkwardly. Could be done for the night but will wait and see.

 

[Daffytrain]

Watched Lunch closely that quarter from L2 at the Ponsford end.. he just isn't leading at the ball carrier quick enough for some reason. I would have thought maybe Jack being back upset his desire to play on instinct but I thought he was 20% off on Saturday too.

Bloke is a mountain just lead at the footy and destroy whatever stands in your way.

 

[Tforce]

I'm not bloody happy. We have to have one spare going into attack because Lynch has two on him most of the time. Martin needs to stop the mindfulness crap and get angry again. Macintosh, god help me. Yes he's a runner but he turned the ball over about three times in a row that quarter. Send Balta back now. Just frustrating to know we are so much better than this. What is it 4 goals or so in a half a football. Not good enough.

On the pluses we have Stack and Ross doing ok. Baker doing ok. We're killing them down back. It's when we go into the forward 50 when we are schitzo.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Stack hardly touched the pill
