Practice Game v Hawks Wednesday live stream

[Scott Tracy]

I'm not pissed or anything it was a scratch match but turnovers probably cost us that. Hopefully we can fix that as it was also an Issue last year. Its clear both teams haven't played real competitive footy. Good signs from McNeill and Timmy.

 

[CarnTheScray]

Don’t take lots from this practice match. Good to watch but how many practice matches did Richmond win in 17,18,19,20? How many did we win in 2016? None I think.

 

[Merlins Revenge]

My god my heart...

 

[Bulldog1954]

Thank god it's not the knee

 

[Guido]

Didn't think I'd ever "celebrate" seeing one of our own players bleeding from the head, but compared to what I thought the injury was, here we are.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Martin and McEvoy are talking about comparing dog offers they both got.

 

[Optimistic Dog]

Can not take a lot from a practice match but key defenders will be a problem again.

This!!!

Libba not doing his knee was the real winner

 

[ummmbont]

We looked unfit

Skills fell away when tired

 

[hazza21]

Good:
- No obvious injuries
- English Fwd/ Martin Ruck Combo
- Bruce looking fit and competing much better. Two great marks.
- McNeil debut/ form
- West’s game
- Jong in patches on a wing.

Bad:
- Skills, especially by foot as the game progressed. Even the Bont was pretty average today.
- Dunkley as a forward having no impact after a good Q1 in the mid
- Anthony Scott’s game as a back man...
- JJs footskills
- Defence in the second half leaking goals

I liked the look of McNeil*

 

[Fossie 32]

5 English
4 Caleb
3 West
2 Crozier
1 Bonti

Lipi did well
Martin, Keath, Jong ok
Dale 2 goals but not much else

 

[Libba39]

Never seen Bont miss so many targets....odd

There's a perfectly good Key Defender that the Dogs insist on playing forward. Bruce can also play Key Defender.

 

[Merlins Revenge]

So who do you think played well for us?

Bruce in patches, McNeil?

 

[weltschmerz]

Williams, Daniel, Croz, West

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Schache kicked the first for the reserve.

Bruce?
Maybe he can but when has he done it well? He was a FT forward at the Saints and too young at GWS

 

[Struggle]

Bruce?

Wasnt he borderline delist material down back at st kilda too before they threw him forward as a Hail Mary in the last month of the season?

 

[Dogsman16]

Why is cordy playing 2s?

 

[Northernsoul74]

Why is cordy playing 2s?

He’s behind Gardner.

 

[Dazb86]

Good to hear Martin/English combo seemed to work

 

[Virgin Dog]

Why is cordy playing 2s?

Because he's limited as a player. Also probably so we can trial a 2 KPD setup instead of 3

 

[VitalDread]

Buku been solid so far

Still hoping we draft William, has all the talent to go into an afl environment
