Autopsy Roast/Toast R1 vs Carlton & Changes for R2 vs Port

[Grrr]

I think he may have gotten injured in the VFL. Disappeared in the second half.

Ribs.

I forgot Carlton had fans. Haven't heard from them since 2000 when "Koutaaaaa" was a thing and "woooooof" Christou. Welcome back Carlton fans. It's only been 23 years since we saw you. And how are you gonna celebrate 30 years of not winning anything next season?

I'm not obsessed I just don't see much point in Mansell or MRJ who had 10 possessions and 1 goal between them. That was my opinion after watching them play every week and do bugger all last season. For some reason posters are happy with that. My opinion is the more firepower than you in the forward line, the more likely you are to win the match. The obsession is the other way, many are happy with very little input from a small forward, but as long as they chase the ball around the back end of the ground their job is done.

Firstly I want Cumberland in because he is an impact player who scores and creates goals. He also tackles hard and applies good pressure around the ball. His weakness is he doesn't do it all the time, but the positives outweigh the negatives. If not him I would go Clarke, next Coulthard but he needs a few more games due to interrupted preseason. Green is a maybe but not sure he has the toe, hence Campbell is playing. Happy to have Campbell there because he is a class player with a good nose for the goals.

Lynch, Cumberland, Campbell, Balta, Martin and Bolton would be about the best forward line in the league.

To be an impact player you have to get the ball and kick goals, if he is not doing that in the Magoo's what makes you sure he will be able to do it in AFL side.

Player's are to be picked on merit.

As they always have done, and the single reason they are my number one hate side in the league.

The arrogance the brown paper bags era brought them.

Would love to see Lefau get a crack.

If Mcauliflower doesnt play this weak Yze is a coward

Yze did an interview on SEN with Maher and Gaze today.
Three things - Balta staying forward, Lynch has pulled up really well, Yze believes we have others to fill the defensive posts and feels it will be unfair on Noah to play defense when he’s trained as a forward all summer.

Ok. He's the coach. I'll back him in. I reckon he might know a bit more about the game than me

still cant believe how badly we were screwed

3 men down and umps thought they should destroy us at the same time

Richmond won on thursday night.

Except I would play Bolton as an on baller with occasional runs in the forward line. He does far more damage coming away from the centre stoppage, where his passing is much, much more accurate than his shooting for goal.

dumbest 'fans' in the league

Pretty sure he kicked 3 and had 3 goal assists 2 weeks ago in the last half. Even on the weekend he missed an easy one and gave another away (that didn't come off). But MRJ did not kick a goal in his 5 games he played last season in the VFL, kicked one in the practice matches I think, yet he gets a gig. Mansell straight back in like he is a senior established player. Different set of rules for Cumberland. When was the last time a player kicked 6 in the VFL and did not get promoted.

Fine, more room for Cumberland then.

They could all come dressed as their favorite false dawn messiah (sacked coach) Pagan, Malthouse, Bolton. They're into dress ups now, Blooos brothers etc

They're all walk up starts for them too, if they weren't injured.

Exactly. So they had 6 players missing & im not sure if we had anyone missing. They had arguably 2 of there most important 3-4 players out.

No but we had 3 of our most important players well underdone, Lunch, Dusty and Nank. Losing 3 early also after playing after a 5 day break, I don't think their injuries were an excuse.

 

[tropicaltiger]

I've got news for us Richmond fans and it's mainly bad....bolton hasn't and got the tank to be an effective midfielder for more than about 20% of perm on ball time. burst player rather than an accumulator not up to getting it 25+ times and running both ways.

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

Where the **** are the left foot kickers? I think Nankervis was the only one on Thursday night

It’s too one sided

They also had players underdone. Ultimately, no one with a straight face can argue that we are a better side than Carlton. We did well, we fought hard and competed. But just feel like our ceiling is not very high while theirs is massive due to outs, but also because their top 10 is far far better and includes 2x KPF,1xKPB, etc They have the structure to win now, we dont
