Preview Round 6 v Melbourne MCG Monday April 24th 7.25pm - ANZAC Eve

[domin8]

I would love to see Lever and May forced to pick up dusty, Rioli jnr and Bolton at various stages. Now that would make them nervous

Lever and May cheat in the corridor trying to intercept. Need to play low and wide. Push them into uncomfortable positions. This is the type of game that jacks footy smarts shine

Are we even a chance tonight? Or should I double down at the pub pre-match.

It's all agin us on current form!

 

[Grrr]

Doubles down the pub pre-match sounds like a good strategy regardless.

 

[sante]

Cotch to turn back the clock

mate, blue sky thinking - why limit yourself so pessimistically? At least triple down

 

[RFCGloryJC]

The Dons played well.
Kept the Cheesy Dees goalless in the third quarter.
That's a blueprint, in particular, Dons defence rebounded the inside 50s.

Triple down I reckon. Maybe even quadruple.

 

[Morro]

We will win. s**t show turned around tonight.

What and turn up early to the game?

 

[Tiger Toffee]

Last 3 games we.have been jumped in the first qtr, pretty much why we have lost last 3 games. Don't get jumped and we don't need to play catch-up. Wouldn't mind us playing that blistering qtr we have in the first qtr.

 

[Bojangles17]

I'm looking to see signs from our kids.Our senior core need to lift bigtime they have been poor all year need a rocket alot of them practically passengers.

I expect a response tbh and we ll be very competitive, whether enough to W , I hope so

 

[rfctigerarmy]

We are our own grand final

 

[59Stanley]

If we have to kick it to grass then taranto will be bog

We're no chance.... take the Melbourne-23.5 line

 

[Yappie dribbles]

We win this

 

[richoplzbreed]

Gotta keep the ball away from May and Lever in the air. Shouldn't be too hard if Dimma tells the boys to aim for them

The sad thing this is so true. If we aim for them like we aim for Tom Lynch then they should struggle all night. Infuriates me watching no name opposition young players hit their forwards lace out or to their advantage. No wonder Lynch has leg injuries always having to slam the breaks on every lead and prop his 100kg frame and still watch it float 5m over his head straight to his straggling opponent, or it's on his toes, or way ahead, rarely in a markable position. Club must be embezzling our skills coach payments to Hardwick's dealer.

 

[smasha]

Great clear night.

 

[prodigy]

Weather suits our game style, but I still can't come to the conclusion of a Richmond win tonight.

 

[STRUGGLETOWN EST1885]

I'd be OK with an honourable loss and expecting as much but having said that I hope we flog the Cheeseplatters. Lets go !!!!!

 

[docko911]

There’s pretty much no reason for us to kick the ball high into the forward line.

 

[mauricerioli]

No expectations for tonight.
We are pretty far off the top 4-5 teams and Melbourne are a top 4 team.

Last weeks last quarter was very concerning.
We’ve played in single bursts in each game and have managed to score heavily in a 10 minute burst.
The best teams have multiple of these over the course of four quarters.


I’m looking for more positive signs from younger players.
Cumberland
Ryan
Clarke
Ralphsmith
Sonsie
Young
Mansell

Experience in big blockbuster games like these are invaluable to development.

Can’t see it going much different from the other games we’ve played this year. We will probably have a burst of 5-6 goals at one stage but ultimately won’t sustain that and fall away to a 40+ point defeat.

Dimma said they rolled the dice with a few things in the last quarter and the score blew out.

Key injury’s are massive
Lynch in particular is basically impossible to replace but combined with Nank out and our best fit depth option for both is the same player who is still very green puts as behind before the ball is even bounced

A fit Soldo would be nice

 

[Tackle Bag]

I’ve got 3 GA tickets available if anyone wants them. Free

Outside Gfs & cats in finals.
Would be a better win than against Port back in 19.
