2nds 2023 VFL thread

[Mr Ripper]

As my old coach used to say, “you no can kick, you no can play football”. Inability to impact marking contests a worry, too.

 

[knaf]

I don't say this flippantly, that was being commentated by at least one paid up Richmond member yeah?

I can only explain it by assuming they were told “Lots more Tiger supporters watch the VFL. Make sure you play it up for them.”

Astonishing lack of leadership in the last quarter when it was needed by the senior players.

It was like press red for Ed

 

[HereIGoAgain]

Rubbish commentating. Dom Fay would be less of a barracker than these blokes.

 

[Strato]

That would be a big downgrade as far as defensive run is concerned unfortunately.

Won't be a problem against the Eagles but would be the following week v the Demons.

That's Crap.

 

[briztoon]

That's Crap.

Nah, truth.

 

[Nunez]

Nah, truth.

While it would absolutely be a downgrade from a defensive standpoint, JL would absolutely play his role and think Dev Robertson could be used more through the middle for defensive pressure if needed as well. I don't think it's the difference between winning or losing if he were out against the Demons.

Not that he will be.

 

[Still Me]

Was very surprised that Answerth was cleared to go back on after his sickening clash in second quarter.

Especially after being knocked out only a few games ago.

See Answerth had surgery today for plates in 3 facial fractures from the collision last game.

I’m no medico but how and the hell was he allowed back on ground after the incident.

Sam Marshall is a bottom age kid, albeit a late January birthday. I can’t remember the last time a bottom aged kid played for the reserves.

Richardson is less that two months older than Marshall, being an early December birth.

Isn't this Rich's first game for the VFL?

 

[Section 5]

Darcy Gardiner is injured again?

Might have stayed in Brisbane as one of the emergencies

Edit: I see he is down as injured

 

[Dalions]

Darcy Gardiner injured again, did I miss something or was that known?

Hard to imagine Darcy getting back into the Seniors again this year.
With Lester’s form and his injury concerns.
I really hope Payney foot/ankle holds up.
