AFL Toast Dreamtime Winning

[rumply]

lid off for the bonce?

2 chances.

Definitely prefer the in depth analysis from Jack Reiwoldt and Jonno

"Neither side has used the sub well essendon have used their sub but maybe richmond could use their sub if both sides haven't used their sub" what the **** is going on

Flog Pie mate trying to tell me earlier this year that Rids is "just a player" because he is a medium seagull defender. What a knob.

"Neither side has used the sub well essendon have used their sub but maybe richmond could use their sub if both sides haven't used their sub" what the heck is going on

it’s CTE awareness night

 

[Don_Gia]

At least our defence looks rock solid…that’s how Roos started it at Melbourne…

 

[Mootsy]

Just not good enough. I know Brad will do his usual "pump up" of the team we played but I really hope internally we are extremely critical of our performances the last 3 weeks. We won't win the next few playing like this.

I think a few players just struggled on the slippery surface and it was freaking cold, I know it’s not a consolation, but it wasn’t the weather for free flowing footy.

I’ll sink your battleship!

Tigers were always going to turn up tonight big stage, senior players copping it in the media, especially Dusty. We played terribly but happy to walk away with the 4 points.
Caddy looks like exactly what we need in the forward half.
Ridley is our most important player, makes everyone in the backline better.

 

[AnGus BurgerFries]

Backs have been huge. Ridley, Laverde (his best game for the year) and Redman. Hind, Merrett and Durham were good too. Stringer and Langford also good.

In all honesty, pretty crap game but 4 points is 4 points I guess. A game and a half above 4th.

Not sure whether it was our pressure or their sh!thouse disposal but with Redman and Ridley marking everything and Lav somehow spoiling every single one of their forwards, Hind popping up in all of the space.... wait how did we only win by 2 goals?

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

Ridley, marvellous

 

[Old Campaigner]

We did look very fumbly out there, maybe Richmond had a bit more grippo.

I think we need to do something about the ruck situation, we got smashed in the clearances and hitouts.

Weren't we told "perfect footy conditions" in the first?

Yes and we were never going to win by a lot.

Lies.

As high a standard as Chris Johnson's boundary riding tonight.

Camera cuts to player on boundary getting hamstrings rubbed down - "Yeah he's off at the moment getting both his hamstrings rubbed down so not quite sure what the issue is"

Margins is a bit of a touchy subject

 

[Yamshologram]

Are we the flakiest ever #2 side at this stage of the season?

The % shows it, don't trust us really tbh

[Goat Hird]

Still lacking composure going forward, whilst our decision making is questionable. Our much improved defence is helping us get these wins.

 

[Stopher]

we've nicked a few this year, but if we keep nickin em we can nick em all the way to September.

Yep, Collingwood 'nicked' games all through September 2023...and have a nice, big, ****-off shiny trophy to show for it!

It is night footy at the MCG though heading into winter.. and I think we struggle massively with it. Not just tonight, but for a long time.

 

[Happyskeret]

How many games we would have lost without one J Stringer? 200 games won a premiership and won how many games off his own boot! He has put a nice career together!

 

[Its Manbearpig]

McKay wins with North 8
Wins with Essendon 8.

 

[Jobe Watson]

I think Tsatas should get whatever midfield minutes Perkins is getting.

 

[theboxmike]

Perkins needs a kick up the ass. At least we won.

 

[Howard Moon]

Feels a bit like last year when we were hanging in the 8 scraping by wce and norf wallpapering cracks. Need a good performance pretty soon
