Round 18-Melbourne Vs Richmond -Squads

[KickLongTackleHard]

Dunn has kicked 8.0 this year. Maybe he could be a forward

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

LOVING this. Absolutely LOVING it so far.

Top goal by Ricky Bobby there...

 

[Dez!]

Ricky Bobby goal.

Although credit to Jetta who saw him and knocked the ball forward.

 

[Dez!]

Did I just see Warnock up forward?

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

Melbourne dropping a man back to protect a lead before 3 qtr time...tanking? Apparently not.

 

[superfreak]

Warnock, Frawley playing as key forwards. Bruce at CHF. Newton playing onball. Johnson at Fullback. Great stuff from Bails! I love it!

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Oh yeah, we're OBVIOUSLY tanking aren't we SF? That would be why we're WINNING, yes?

Don't be a troll...

Was about to comment on that actually. RP kicked a goal then was sent to the back half? WTF? Very suspect moves , but i guess you need to find how versatile you players are...

On a side not enjoying the game of Cheney and Valenti.

Don't be a troll...

Why did he move Dunn to the backline after he has been our most dangerous forward?

 

[Dez!]

Come on Dees... stick it to everyone who says we're "tanking"

You do realise that if we win, it won't be because we aren't tanking it will be because Richmond are an absolute rabble of a football club.

We're tanking because we haven't selected the best team available, it's got nothing to with the players not trying or anything.

Tanking comes from the selections that the match committee has made, every bloke out there they are giving their all.

 

[superfreak]

Not trolling mate, I am a Melbourne supporter, just using my bro's account.

 

[Dez!]

How awesome has Junior Mac been?

Great Bennell, Martin and Whelan all out for the game, down to 1 rotation.

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

nathan brown that was a gem of a goal

 

[Dez!]

Oh God.

PJ at CHB.

Frawley and Warnock up forward.

Makes sense.

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Not trolling mate, I am a Melbourne supporter, just using my bro's account.

No worries... happy to withdraw that mate. Good on you for replying like that.

 

[Dez!]

Rivers wow, that was shit.

 

[coryne]

WD Rivers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dropping the ball so Hislop can kick a goal ??? ANd the Demons arn't tanking ???

 

[SnowCool]

Massive tank on, SEN commentators have been laughing about it all day.

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Great Bennell, Martin and Whelan all out for the game, down to 1 rotation.

Yeah... I'd be low-balling it if I said I was only frustrated at this point - maddening that these guys have been sidelined as well, to add to the rest of our injury catalogue...

GREAT effort by Jones there.

 

[Dez!]

Jonesy very very good mark and kick there.

 

[Danog]

Go Dees! I hope we lose so that we cut the spuds (White, McMahon, Pattison).

Then why are we inches away from leading this- and why have we been leading for most of the game? If we win, will you STILL say we've been somehow "tanking"?

Yeah, RIGHT.

Come on Dees... stick it right up them.

Bloody great effort from the boys today - and with four injuries we've copped as well, which some twerps will THEN try and claim are "fake" of course

 

[Dez!]

Then why are we inches away from leading this- and why have we been leading for most of the game? If we win, will you STILL say we've been somehow "tanking"?

Are you Andrew Demetriou or just ******ed?

It's the match committee that initiates tanking not the players.

Every player out there will give it there all, the match committee select the team that will make it hardest for us to win.

If this was any other team bar Richmond it would be working, however we are tanking against a rabble of a football club.

You can win this one. Doesn't really matter does it.

4 wins still gets you the PP. Tank next weekend

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Dez, the injuries aren't "fake" though, are they.

Even you wouldn't deny that the 4 guys we've had sidelined today have been sidelined for legitimate reasons, surely?

Sure, it's arguable that there's some weirdness going on with a couple of selection decisions etc, but it really galls me after all the injury troubles we've had, to have to put up with the conspiracy claims after each one now...
