Too many blokes who cant kick a drop punt in one team : kennedy, rampe, tippet, shaw, jack, pyke, smith, reid, Mitchell. Losing their best kick (malceski) has hurt them and further exposed these players who despite being wonderful competitors and athletes football simply doesn't come naturally...

You were obviously at Waverley eating popcorn while Dunstall kicked 17 goals 5 against your team weren't you!? Yep... But Plugger was better wasn't he. Cretin

Lol. Notice Richmond can only win if they are the underdog, or like tonight only played their best when Sydney got ahead. Richmond are the most mentally fragile club in the afl and play too much on emotion.

Lol at Dunstall not being a threat at ground level. Ever seen his goal where he turned bruce doull inside out in a grand final? Or his goal at the whitten oval where he controlled the ball on the ground making doug Hawkins look stupid? Dunstall gets pidgeon holed as a lead out take a mark kick...

Absolute myth that Richmond were 'amazing' in the 2nd half of the year. They simply had a soft draw Another myth is that Sydney were the biggest loser of the season. Recruiting Franklin took them to the gf, which is an amazing effort with their list and only 1 recognised ruckman. They wouldve...

It wasn't so much the free kicks it was more the fact carlton had no rotations and lost the benefit of a fresh 2nd half sub whilst geelong got a goal out of their sub thurlow.

gee whiz eddie has great stats.... but so does matt priddis. You obviously just don't get it. The whole point of the op is to highlight the delusion of Richmond and carlton. And delusion obviously sums you up if you even try to remotely defend any of the current carlton players, unless your...

Agree with this. The delusion will continue into the preseason and the same cycle will continue for both clubs because the lists won't be culled to the extent that they should. For example it has taken Carlton about 8 years to finally rid themselves of Eddie, Jeffy and Mitch Robinson, 3 of the...

As a hawk supporter I love goodes. Please keep playing. You are a liability and have been for a long time. We wouldn't have won without your weak attempted tackle on litherland.

Please please may I see a team with rampi, derrixx, shyte pyke, jake Lloyd, ben mcglynn, ted Richards, Cunningham, dean towers, Jeremy laidler and gary rohan in it. Would be a pure pleasure seeing these amateurs trying to kick drop punts on the MCG. I simply cant wait.

Over the best part of a decade Collingwood have virtually had pendlebury, swan and cloke play pretty much every game without missing. There aren't many teams who have ever had that luxury of having their core best 3 players never get injured. Collingwoods depth has never been tested and is and...

The football public and media will focus on the fact that north can match it with the top teams, however what it shows is how mentally weak a team like north are. They only play their best when they aren't expected to perform and have no pressure on them at all. Yet when expected to win they go...

Petrie has been playing for about 10 years and has as much to show for his career as a bar stool

I suppose Dunstall never had enough presence for you the day he kicked 17 against Richmond. I hope you were sitting in the stands eating popcorn.

I fell of my chair when I heard gibbs talk about winning premierships in the next 5 years. It is this sort of delusion that holds clubs like carlton, Richmond and Essendon back. Carlton are full of mentally weak players like Andrew walker who play above expectation against the 'better' teams...

When your team is winning u think footy looks great. Lets face it, compared to 20 odd years ago there are more victorian clubs with horrendous lists who have no light at the end of the tunnel. Of course vic supporters from ess, melb, stk, rich, Carl, bulldogs etc aren't gonna enjoy watching...

Agree completely. A very narrow minded and naïve view. Shootouts can lack intensity, both 'styles' of matches have their pros and cons. Can I please have less cretins and footy haters criticising the current game.

I still don't know why hes not playing on the wing

Simpson should be your captain. Sounds silly but he looks like a carlton person. He seems to carry a link between the current era and the 'Kouta' era which murphy or judd don't. For a proud club like carlton you need this 'link' or its almost like the proud traditions and knowledge passed on...

I see that freo were really troubled by all those stats. He must be in your dream team. Plays like dal santo with a wig. It took a few years for the esendon supporters to wake up to Stanton getting a million possessions with zero impact it wont be long before they wake up to heppell too.

I hope Heppell cops the same criticism from ess supporters that zaka cops. Absolute crab. Kicks the ball 20m sideways hoping for a little one two. I know hes one of the slowest players on the list and that's his role but he is terrible. Not suited by the modern game.

you can have a million midfielders, but if you don't have any key position players you cant win let alone make finals. Gold coast only have 1 kpp, rory Thompson. Day and Lynch have the presence of mice. gws at least have a core of kpp's to build a team around.

As the game changes players become redundant in the blink of an eye. Google a bloke called 'lance whitnall'

It Well, according to woosy he was off studying ice hockey and the dynamics of a basketball key for most of his tenure at Sydney so I agree he probably did lean on Horse and personality Ross for tactical nouse on actual football. The question is, where has woosy been taking notes from to...

Judd is the real problem. Without him would have kennedy. And having Judd has deluded them into thinking they are always a premiership threat hence topping up with players like mclean etc .

Is it infact possible for this hall of famer to do the impossible and make Melbourne worse than what they already are?

Yesterdays loss was so Richmond. When the game was there to be won, were disappointing. Then once the game was gone and the pressure was off they came storming back over celebrating (Jack) getting all the supporters overconfident and cocky again, then THUD. A player like matt Thomas should not...

wasn't talking about individual achievements. Just ask bobby skilton what he would prefer to be remembered for

One of those matches where u throw the form out the window. Will be plenty of momentum swings. Would not be surprised if we find out tonight that Essendon aren't as good as everyone thinks.

Its not the coach its the recruiting.
