So funny!! Has a shit game again and because he did one good thing he's a star!! No one holds there hand up to slow down play after taking a mark like LT. Doesn't matter 2 guys are free in the forward line LT needs to make sure the cameras get him on tv. With regards to the smother, go back 20 odd minutes and you'll see a really half arsed gutless effort to smother by him. But hey one good smother so has to be AA!!
Hmmm...

What a smother though! That play has nearly willed this club into finals for the first time in 3 yeas.

LT puts his body on the line. Even the last Q he ran back with the flight an almost took a mark Drew got a free for.

Considering his role has changed, I wouldn't be too fussed about today as the depth of our kicks was terrible.

Even a lot of long kicks to forwards from HBF. Stupid football.

So funny!! Does another selfless act which won't get on the stat sheet... and because he didn't tare it up like he has been all season long he isn't very good.

Nobody called him a star Mav, in fact nobody even said he had a good game. Don't let that get in the way of you going on one of your famous rants though :thumbsu:

The general consensus is that Lindsay was quite poor today but was involved in one piece of play which was match winning, a spectacular smother with a few minutes remaining. Let's appluad him for that, well done Thomas!!!

He's been good all year so what if he had a quiet day the smother was awesome, he's the the north barometer when he's up and about it
seems like the whole side rises a notch.

Me too.

You would have had to put up with the MAN UP! bloke all day then?
I moved over there in the second half. I was on the center wing in the first half and few Richmond commentators/coaches were annoying me.

There was an interesting character in the area.

I think the bloke I'm talking about has had a thread devoted to him before on this forum.

He must have said "MAN UP!" 400 times yesterday. He also tries to put the opposition off by loudly booing the player lining up for goal from 100m away.

He was also the prime suspect for a couple of pungent "Royce Harts" in the 3rd and 4th quarter.

Must not have heard him. I was right near blokes who were giving Jack Roo a pounding.

They really are an odd lot of supporters, they seem to beg for win, having no confidence at all, then when their players stuff it up, like usual, all they can manage is a laugh.

I was sitting down near the cheer squad(great seats btw) and some richmond heros on level 2 thought it would be a good idea to throw the ball at some ladies head, the north support for her made some interesting viewing. also loved hearing jack cop a pounding for pointing fingers and sooking up, also enjoyed the comments about the Richmonds players glove. Great day

And Lindsay Thomas' bump on Demons defender Daniel Nicholson early in the third quarter, in which the small forward's shoulder appeared to make contact with Nicholson's head, may attract the attention of the Match Review Panel.

Nicholson took some time to regain his feet after the incident but he quickly recovered and played out the rest of the game.
Safe or gone?
