Game Day R16 - Adelaide v Richmond at the MCG (What could go wrong?)

[madstar]

I can handle Laird and Smithers in the side. Both former AA calibre and still offer something.


But Murphy has never been good. Only in the side due to how bad we were in Nicks early years.
Served a role then as he does have a great Footy brain. Just.very limited physical skilset


He should not be on our list now, if anything SANFL captain. But certainly not playing AFL games.

So 3-4 weeks for Lynch? Absolute thug…

I thought more. If McAdam got 3 for potential to cause harm it should be at least 5. It’s a lottery

Is straight to the tribunal by the sounds of it.

They'll go hard on Lynch because Richmond can't make finals and a lower pick helps them

 

[Cromulant]

A player with a good footy brain will rack up touches and have impact when required. You’re being too kind.

His ability is so far away from the level it negates his footy IQ

 

[madstar]

Holy shit, I came here after an absolutely dominant win, and it's all bitterness and complaints.

Richmond has been out bogey team,.and we smashed them.

I get it - Murphy is annoying. But is it really so upsetting that you can't enjoy seeing us position ourselves for a possible top four finish?

Loved the win, it was great but we should be looking for the best outcomes. There are kids missing out on an AFL game who would definitely make our team better. I feel sorry for him but that’s not how I should feel for a player playing in our team when we are aiming for top 4. Subbing Rash was weird! Nicks is stubborn!!

 

[dani_giuls]

radiojake dani_giuls you can move down to the fence

We really had our pick of seats today!

Tried to stay out of any potential rain. Surprised with how many crow supporters were there, felt like we outnumbered the tigers. Finally got my first win in Melbourne & Mr Spurs first ever Crow win. If he wasn’t so hungover, I think he would’ve really enjoyed it!

Lot of pet memberships and 1 game memberships

AFL should release 11 game equivalent stats

If they did, we would be right up there.

 

[chazwazza]

You don't need to justify it

Pick our best team. The end

If the coaches think that's Murray then seeya Jordon.

To Butts' credit he's made the question much harder than it looked at the start of the season.

Murray will need a few games before finals, will need to rest someone to make way.

Rob with the worst looking but most effective kicking action I've ever seen.

I mentioned this to a mate at Unley yesterday, Sturt has a great competitive brute of a ruck Amos Doyle, regularly crumbs his own tap from centre, bombs the ball inside 50 and kicks goals with a confident action….I compared his coordination to O’Brien as a point of difference.

Love big Amos, but ROB would slaughter him.

Richmond board effectively saying it was Butts fault for scragging Lynch… absolutely sh@t, front running club…

Nicks signalling it's time to shut it down?

You were sitting so close to me I genuinely think I am in this photo

Who cares what those bandwagonning flogs say

How many of them actually were at the game

 

[chazwazza]

One on one in a ruck contest definitely, mobility, around the ground and a kicking for goal contest I’d back Amos

 

[beartoo]

Don't know if it's been mentioned because I haven't read the entire thread. The comment that Thilthorpe's beard deserved it's own Instagram page cracked me up.

They can say what they want..but watch the “he was frustrated” defence bring what should be a 6 week holiday down to 2…

Suggesting 6 for what happened is ridiculous, if he made real contact with a closed fist then sure but that’s not what happened

I already know it wont be 6, but if they were serious about charging the action and potential to cause injury, then it should be at least that. Some of these accidental bumps that get 3 pale in comparison. Throwing a haymaker at a blokes head is way worse than say what Jimmy Webster did when he elected to bump and left the ground to do so. He got 7 weeks from memory.

Why should that matter? Lynch still threw a haymaker. That he's incompetent at martial arts should not factor into this. He should get the equivalent punishment to Cripps or Hall or anyone that has done the same.

It still annoys me McAdam got 3 weeks for a front on bump that didn't injure Jacob Wehr

Jeff Gleeson stated that - "a reasonably prudent player would have recognized the considerable risk of injury to Wehr and that the potential for serious injury was very high"

lol .. Lynch threw a haymaker ffs .. off the ball

Think Gaff on Brayshaw a few years ago or Hall on Staker about 16-18 years ago.

Surely they have to give him more than the 2 weeks some have suggested?

 

[conVINCEd]

Derm, what's the record for shit takes in a game?

My favourite was the start of the game when he was talking about Curtin playing up forward - as Curtin was literally at the centre wing stoppage that very moment because Dermie confused Michalanney for Curtin. He kept going on about it as well.

It;ll be burned into my skull till the day I die that we lost a GF to this mob of fannies.

It is now burned into my skull that you made me read the word fannies on a football forum

 

[Moonwatcher]

They'll go hard on Lynch because Richmond can't make finals and a lower pick helps them

The favourable umpiring they got in the first 3/4 makes no sense in this context. The AFL is just completely random.
