Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Gotta look at the bigger picture, whilst not ideal better than Cats. If he won it there’d be less about Scott being the best coach ever 4 flags at 2 clubs vs 2 at 1 (with one being arguably a gift).
My Richmond ratings from last night, enjoy
Mansall - 10/10
Did nothing but hurt all their players and may be responsible for essendon not being able to field a team next week
Ben miller - 9/10
Not only was he a defensive blanket, he was really good with his disposal. Doing some grest things with his kicks. Surprised me.
Tylar Young - 9/10
Gave Caddy a bath, really impressed, I think we either play balta forward or ice him, because the defence looks better without him
Taranto - 8/10
Fought all day. ****ing gave it his everything and slotted that much needed goal after a 60 minute drought.
Hopper - 8/10
Similar to taranto and he kicked the banana which was super impressive, stepped up
Short - 7/10
Pretty good first game back, kicked a huge goal
Banks - 7/10
Outside 50 goal and so good with the pill. Dude is a lock now next 10 years
Prestia - 7/10
Clean with the ball. He might need to play on next year.
Ross - 6.5/10
He tagged merrett and made him useless. Maybe needs to play a tagging role
Kamdyn McIntosh- 6/10
Stopped a lot of scores on the goal line a lot. He also was composed and made minimal mistakes.
Jonty - 6/10
Went up the ground and actually held onto good contested marks. He reminds me of Jeremy Cameron, really glad he got reward with that goal
Taj - 6/10
Silky. Won every contest he was in, jumped at the ball to bring the mark down in the first. Rather than wait for the spoil, the kid is clean.
Brown - 5.5/10
Lots of the ball. Half good half bad, wasnt his best game.
Vlastuin - 5.5/10
Did some dumb shit with Broad in the defensive 50 that really cost us. Dunno why he overpossessed it. Still did many good things though.
Broad - 4.5/10
Average game from him. Overpossessrd the ball. Wasn't creative and turned it over too much.
Nank - 4/10
Must be injured, didnt dominate enough against Goldstein who is essendon a 50 year old senior citizen. We need to start thinking about life after Nank, hes getting older and worse.
Trainor - 3/10
Missed set shots. Ducked so much, will build himself a poor rep if he milks for frees, must run in the blood as his grandfather kicked 1000 goals for the filthy cats. Nice 1 handed mark going back with the flight.
Seth Campbell - 2.5/10
This guys had a really quiet month.
Tresize- 2/10
Wasnt on long enough as he was sub but didn't do anything good. Had one shot at goal and sprayed it
Sonsie - 1/10
So much of the ball, every time he just takes TOO LONG TO DECIDE WHAT TO ****ING DO AND ESSENDON JUST ALL FLOOD DOWN. Hes ****ing shit.
Maurice Rioli - 1/10
Back to being ****ing shit, gets in good positions and just ****S EVERYTHING UP. He was essendons best defender
Sims - 0/10
Got spanked by goldy, called for the ball on the goalline and missed the sealer. Took one great mark and kicked it on the full. Can't kick for shit this dumb campaigner
Kozi -
Was his NDIS worker with him? This guy has the football IQ of a Dodo Bird. His career will be extinct soon
He'd start rooting Barb in accounts if that happened
We were not trying to play a quicker transition game in any way shape or form. It was clear at the ground that we had been coached not to rush it in to our forward line if we thought we were out-numbered. The Bombers played 1 and often 2 spare defenders back and just waited for us to go out wide/switch and then roll over. We would kick it to guys in space and they had were clear that they weren't to play on unless they knew they had another player to kick it to. Then our footskills let us down when we did eventually try to bite something off (Sonsie's eventual left foot pass to Hotton which was cut off a great example of this). So many times though, we'd exit the ball and get it to half back or just defensive side of wing and look up to see 2 spare defenders. It was deliberate, ugly and painful, but deliberate.

He hasn't already, he better hurry up, as in his presser he ain't aging well.
Get ready
We only just beat them in Melbourne, lol.

I never want Footscray to win, too many smug bastards in the media.
It would be funny if Adelaide finally return to the Grand Final after we humiliated them, and they’re playing against Hardwick again lol
Funny thing is that I wouldn’t trade Tom Brown for Jacob van Rooyen now even if I was given the chance
And Faull and Armstrong will be far better players up forward.Funny thing is that I wouldn’t trade Tom Brown for Jacob van Rooyen now even if I was given the chance
He’s just so poised with the ball, can rely on him making good use of the ball
My other post said he never could imagine that was going to be the outcome. Reverse the situation and have one of our best players do an ACL because of an unnecessary action by a bomber. We'd be baying for their blood. Look at the angst we have had against Hawkin's small push onto Soldo. It's still being mentioned.Get ya hand off it Ancient Tiger ya cuck.

Imagine saying this crap to Bombers posters on the Bombers board
It was a fair bump, inside the boundary line, with the ballin play. Mansell did nothing wrong. In fact, he did great. Unfortunately Martin was unlucky.
nah no way suns can win anything on the g
What do you think was unnecessary about it? If he hadn't have bumped Martin out of bounds, he would have got a handball off and form then who knows, could have led to a crucial goal.
When I watched it it seemed like he could have easily just tackled Martin stopping the handball. At that point they both would have beed over the line. Instead, he went for an aggressive tackle-bump. As I said the injury was a completely unforeseen result.
So he should tackle him softly over the line and place a pillow under his head just to be sure? If Martin is within the boundary, with the ball, then an aggressive bump is fine as is any other physical contact within the rules. The umpire got it wrong.
We’re bloody blessed to have our defensive group while conducting this rebuild. Only have to look at Norf who are 5 years deep into their rebuild and still have a far worse defensive group than us. It’s kept us competitive in more games than it should have.
What?!
