Richmond score 16-17 goals every week, and teams haven't figured out how to stop them from doing that so have to score more to beat them.

Excellent work, Robbo. Two trips to Adelaide for returns of 12.10 and 8.10, one trip to Perth for a return of 12.11. Three losses.

Check out the responses to this mea culpa from Gossage - he has no concept of journalistic integrity, and pretty much shrugs at responses to him.
Crikey, he keeps saying Cerra is out of contract when he's not.

Better off just putting his hand up and saying he was wrong rather than
keep digging a hole for himself.

I know Gos cops a lot of slack but he is miles better than Hackdorn and he is on the money more times than not. Also doesnt give the impression he hates the WA teams like Hackdorn and Hardie do.
It's like saying dog shit is better than cat shit. Gossage is a massive chode and Lachy Reid is the scrote.

Against my better judgement, I tuned into VFL360.

Thinking that WC and GWS is 3rd against 6th, thought I might get
some decent opinion on the game. If not by Bob and Del Santo, at least
by Kingy and Maclure.

Well, apart from WC being in the doomsday scenario if they lose, nothing else.
Obviously Melbourne versus Freo is a more crucial game:rolleyes:

Didn't crack a mention.

“Needs to do it every week, not just when he’s under the pump”
I am sure that you are right, but frankly any bagging of Nicnat this year is just bizarre. The influence that he has had this year after coming off a knee reco (particularly being a bloke of his size) has just been extraordinary.

I would really like to see Nik Nat get super fit for 2019 and build his endurance. He could be the best in the league if does so. The guy is just a freak. I still remember that blind turn on Ablett like it was yesterday.

"- West Coast superstar Nic Naitanui was a bit ginger after dropping a Mark of the Year contender, but played out the match and appeared fine"

Except you know he did hold the mark / it's been replayed ad nauseum after the match

Amazing how quick the media turns on him when he has 1-2 bad games in a row.
AFL media are the biggest Hypocrites in the world tbh. They love to state that "ACL injury is a 2 year injury as it takes 1 year to recover and another year to find form" when a big name Vic star returns from an ACL. NN has basically come from an 18month spell and has basically picked from where he left off but you got to except the odd shit game from them. I can't think of any player in recent times to come off an ACL injury and has improved the side and made them a contender.
