Autopsy Autopsy vs Richmond

[Woolly Mammoth]

Worst win I have EVER seen. Anyone other than Richmond and West Coast and we 100% have 5 goals kicked in the last 5 minutes and lose.

One bit of solace: the immediate reaction from the players and Clarko suggests they know how woeful that last quarter was. This won't be the paper over the cracks Tiges win we have come to know in the last 5 years.

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

Feels like a loss. But seriously what can we expect if we have to play the same dumb footballers every week. No shit its like going into every game a few goals down and with 16 men on the field.

Until we have a chance to flush out the rot we will always be a bottom 4 team. Richmond will be way ahead of us by end of next year.

 

[Horizons_00]

I said multiple times in the game time thread just believe!

We absorbed enormous, almost record breaking pressure, and still never gave up (North and Tigers both laid 92 tackles each). We finally started out well so we have also changed our game in that perspective and the last 4 games against decent opposition have kept every team to under 80 points. We are progressing.

We all sit here and complain that last week wasn’t a win etc and now we get one even playing not well, get the win, and you campaigners are still not happy.

Great shinboner win and it’s going to actually finally validate our progress over the past month

 

[krakouers]

Why not for the love of God? What were you expecting exactly?

lol at least something more than that

 

[Flawed Genius]

Xerri 52 hitouts 11 clearances 10 tackles and 19 touches from 87% TOG. An ogre

 

[amaz199]

Toby Pink. That is all.

Trading our first draft pick for pick 27 could and probably is the worst draft decision in the history of the draft

 

[Ashley B]

No such thing as a bad win oh hang on last rd v Hot Toast lol

 

[sheridan]

win was super ugly. take the 4 pts and move on. good for georgie boy he deserves it.

 

[Caracas]

He did one thing and it was poor. Is he any chance of showing this much vaunted potential? He literally is showing nothing for a top pick.

He’ll get there, I think. Somebody should have told him. In his mind, he was playing the percentages.

 

[Conundrum]

Its good for the players to at least leave the field having secured a win, no matter how ugly it was, even if the only thing we can take from it is the desire to avoid the crushing feeling of strings of losses. Nice to see McKercher accumulating more possessions like he was last year

No we’re not and you know it. We have been in massive trouble for 5 years. We are coming out of it. Why people think that we’re suddenly going to start walloping teams after what we’ve gone through, is baffling.

We won 1 quarter against a side that started their rebuild 4 years after us.

We've seen this pattern for the last 2 years. Close losses, then back to floggings, back to close losses, then falling over the line against another shit side, then back to floggings.

Nowhere near enough signs to say 'we are coming out of it'. Pretty wild to suggest so

 

[Caracas]

lol at least something more than that

But why? I certainly have been expecting better for the last 5 years. We get to sing the song.

 

[Moti]

Its a win, let’s celebrate.

We dont really know how to win, we need the practice

 

[JGreezy]

It's funny that the same people who say that it doesn't matter if we play well and lose are now saying that the win doesn't matter because we didn't play well enough.

 

[zoomba23]

Worst win I have EVER seen. Anyone other than Richmond and West Coast and we 100% have 5 goals kicked in the last 5 minutes and lose.

This is silly. If it wasn't Brisbane last week, we probably win. If it wasn't Richmond today, we probably lose. Who cares.

The only thing that matters is your opponent on the day and whether you beat them. There are sometimes asterisks, like with Essendon 2016 and WC 2022, but the negativity here is baffling, and I'm a negativity maestro.

What exactly were people expecting from this basket case of a team? An eight goal thumping? Take it, and move onto next week

 

[DarkPhoenix]

JD and Comben giving Wardlaw a good cuddle during the team song, realise how much he wanted to win

 

[giantroo]

 

[Caracas]

Jy must have $’s on the oppo week after week with his poor decision making and skill errors in critical game moments. That direct turnover with 4 left on the wing

Jy had a great game.

 

[Cyber_punk]

You don't know how we're going to win more than 3 games?

We could have easily had 3 wins in the last 3 games leading up to today.

And if my aunt had balls yada yada yada

 

[Moti]

JD and Comben giving Wardlaw a good cuddle during the team song, realise how much he wanted to win

First win?

 

[krakouers]

But why? I certainly have been expecting better for the last 5 years. We get to sing the song.

Hence why I said, don’t watch the replay, bank it, learn and I’m happy Georgey gets his second and Finbarr his first

 

[Roosurgence]

Shout out to Richmond’s 4 extra defenders.

Lucky Dill and Laura say the games the best it’s ever been, because all I saw were Richmond defenders shoving, blocking and scragging as the ball came inside our 50.

Yet these same 4 gimps think a fly tap on Lynch is chopping.

Games ****ed!

Richmond defenders got bolder and bolder as the game progressed because they knew they wouldn’t be penalised.

First I’ve heard of this trade, what happened?
