Sad but true.

We are shooting ourselves in the foot. This is shocking footy. We could be close if we could kick straight as the saints are missing goals as well. Then again thank goodness they are otherwise we would be 10 goals down.

Hooray a goal to Hall.

We have gone totally negative to stop them scoring and all we are doing is stopping our own ability to score.

3/4 Time:

Richmond 5.0 ... 7.2 ... 8.6-54 ..... Krakouer 2, Hall, Brown, Bowden, Fiora, Morrison, Rodan
St Kilda 4.3 ... 10.6 ... 12.12-84 ..... Gehrig 5, Powell 2, Reiwoldt 2, Harvey, Ball, Thomson

yes baker is clearly gone, not only caught by the umpire but also on tape, (unlike hamill's which was only seen by the umpire but he should still go aswell, just hope Ty tell the tribunal he felt a heavy blow to the head) behind the play his arm was fully stretched when he connected with johnson

if the AFL are serious about rubbing out behind the play incidents then Baker is gone for at least 4 weeks

enjoy your holiday sunshine

Fiora - this guy is a hack.
Every week he coughs it up.
Does a couple of good things but never enough.
Why do we persist with these duds?

Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic.

As diggler says - we are rabble.

Why is it everyone but the players can see that we should kick it long and direct. Can we really blame Spud for such shocking play? I mean that kick of Fiora straight to the St. Kilda straight in front of goal!!!!

Spud should have ironed this out of our game long ago
or at least have a better counter punch for when it happens
(which is every week).

It's all they know and when under pressure naturally revert to it.

Whats even sadder is i dont even get upset now when we play like ****.
Instead i just expect it.

it is spuds fault when the team order today is obvious that he wanted players to run back and flood the backline.

cant expect players to play condifent football when the coach isnt confident himself and doesnt let them play man on man footy.

he is the biggest HACK of all

forget fiora or hall its spud who is a joke..

fiora btw did well, so he missed a set shot tell me who else didnt today.

Maybe it's the negative mood I'm in but Tivendale's kick-ins seem to be really lacking. How many turnovers from his kick-ins? Why, oh why, can't they simply kick the snot out of the ball instead of fiddling and farting around and letting the opposition drop back??

WHY, WHY, WHY!!!!!!!

Another shot just over 40m out which doesn't make the distance. Not AFL standard :mad:

Julz, the Saints are dominating all over the park. Our kick-ins are under pressure as we have no one free to kick to.

and I disagree with you.

Every time we didnt have anyone to kick to. If we went long, we had a lack of height. If we went short the saints just put too much pressure on and blocked us off.

They dominated in the middle. Most of our possies are short nothing kicks and handballs in our defensive half as we stuff around with the footy going nowhere allowing the opposition to flood back.

We played like any team would with Frawley coaching.
Indecisive and negative.

Again, this week the only good thing is that we are higher on the ladder than Collingwood and Essendon. And the Cats, who we play next week, are on the bottom (although our record against them isn't great).
