Too many passengers...Reid, Brander, Crippa, Hurn lost a yard of pace, JK gone in first few minutes. Williams first game. At least the boys have experienced the benchmark, and were realistically probably due for a loss.

Very happy with Williams and O'Neill though. The midfield have stood up. They'll use this as good motivation. Brander and Reid will be an absolute liability in finals unfortunately.
 
The positive.

-we have half a dozen players from our best 22 to come back. Yeo, Redden, Allen,Waterman, small forward other than Reid, and Hutchings not massively underdone

- tigers can’t kick this straight again

- surely can’t get umpiring like this again

Forgot Nelson

Also played a man down the whole game without Kennedy

Tigers straight kicking says a lot about the way we've defended. Sure, got some free kicks but at least 4-5 times we've either spoiled into the hot spot or tried to mark it and it gets roved off the pack. Spoil to the ******* boundary.

Simmo really only has one gameplan and it doesn't cut it when the opposition are good and plan for us. Do the simple things right.

And Barrass is never going to be a proper fullback. We need to find someone better for that role.
 
We just cant play nights, slippery conditions, humidity or rain. Need a nice sunny afternoon game for us to be at our best.
 
I don't post here very often, but I am very comfortable with where we are at. Absolutely every little thing went Richmond's way tonight and we had plenty of quality not on the field. Not concerned by this result in the slightest
 
Our game relies on them dominating in the air too. It’s why we seem to be so hot and cold sometimes. Either they need to be held accountable or we need a different plan

Then we are in trouble because the good sides will make them be accountable and not allow them to sit in space on their own.
