Autopsy Round 9 vs Melbourne - Game Discussion and Changes for GWS

[DrMike]

So do ppl rekon we might actually sack Dimma mid season?? I personally rekon he has to go, not really fussed when but has to be this year

We won't, take it to the Hardwick thread and discuss it there.

 

[FreightTrain]

Griffiths was horrible just horrible, gave us nothing and shanked some easy shots on goal.

Houli had a shocker.

Martin, Rance, McDonough , Vlas, Titch and Lennon had a crack.


Midfield got smashed

 

[Rubber Hips]

The team is full of dumb footballers coached by a dumb coach. Do we have a defensive game plan or is it just get it too dustin, trent or deledio to see if they can take the world on and win the game for us? , vickery and Chaplin just showed how useless they are. And subing hampson off pretty much sums the coaching ability of hard wick, mark Jamar would have been laughing too him self once he realized he had Tyrone for the rest of the game.

You forgot the ol bomb it into the F50 and hope for the best when Jack is against 3

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

We added to the scoreboard, with 20 behinds.

I'll repeat it again, we kicked 20 behinds, a heap from set shots. Some of them even in front of goals.

The players lost it themselves.

So I suppose we've just stumbled to third last on the ladder then and this result doesn't run any deeper then our players and their 20 missed behinds?


Bulldust.

Losing the centre clearances 8-2 in the final quarter and having 20 less interchanges with 2 on the bench would have hurt.

Mate Griff and Houli were not alone...Chaplin Tyrone Grigg .....

 

[Put a Lids on it]

I wish I could say I'm surprised but I'm not.

 

[Jimmybob]

Changes for GWS:
Out: Troy Chaplin, Shaun Hampson, Shaun Grigg, Brett Deledio (injured), David Astbury (injured)
In: Matt Dea, Liam McBean, Brad Helbig, Matt Arnot, Jake Batchelor

Good ins! Few blokes in there that will pack a punch against a tough, hard GWS outfit. Have not liked Bach or Dea in the past at all, so I'm keen to see how they've progressed in the VFL. I think Grimes will replace Astbury though, Batch isn't tall enough to be a KPD

 

[Calcium Man]

Feeling as low as I have for a long time, 9.20 FFS!
This may be considered knee jerk, but maybe it's time we trade Deledio, Cotchin & Reiwoldt for first round picks & Vickery, Edwards, Griffiths, Foley, Grigg, Houli, Chaplin, Jackson, Hampson, Lloyd, Gordon, Morris, Batchelor & Petterd for whatever second/third/fourth rounds we can get, then turf the entire football department.
Keep Rance, Martin, Conca, Ellis, Vlaustin, Lennon, Astbury, McDonough & Maric as our core, get Matthews to coach!

Cannot agree with these ones. You still need you're super stars and your gutting our leadership with Cotch, Jackson and Lids. Griff missed goals you'd expect him to kick but he presented. Houli had two horrible clangers but is a good player. Jacko behind Dusty and Rance was our best today and kept trying.

 

[Jisha]

This hurts much more than the Carlton Elim loss. Completely shattered in the half arsed performance we just got dealt.

Its really sad when Rance, Morris, Astbury and Lennon were probably our most important players. Throw into the mix that Jackson is our ball winner these days we have serious issues. Absolutely not good enough at all.

It really is a sad day for Richmond right now.

So do ppl rekon we might actually sack Dimma mid season?? I personally rekon he has to go, not really fussed when but has to be this year

No I don't think we will sack him just yet...but if we keep this shit up he'll be gonski at seasons end

 

[KickIt2Cotch]

John Worsfold 2015. So who is everyone liking for the number one draft pick?

 

[Barry_Badrinath]

Of course it's a knee jerk, seeing what it felt like - I do try to be positive generally, but that was hard to watch.

That doesn't mean you should come on here and make delirious, illogical suggestions.

 

[mickctiger]

Absolute disgrace. That we couldn't even win it for Hafey is nothing other than purile.
I'm with everyone else, Dimma has to go

 

[Hipster Doofus]

The mental pressure that paralyses us...it's in the head

And it's only been solidified in the club's culture and mindset by last years choke in the EF, this is increasingly looking like yet another false dawn

 

[partycorolla]

Grigg should not play another game of AFL ever again.

for us anyway....

Calm down and come back tomorrow morning.

 

[Groupie_]

and we actually extended his contract

he is not a coaches arseh*le

 

[avengers]

Hardwicks press conference! "You know it's funny, it was between me and ken hinkley and look how good he's done at port!"

 

[Straya]

Awesome result for this years draft. Lets face it, our very young talent is very good. The more we get from the draft the better we will be in the long. Our spuds got us as far we could last year. We now need to keep on building and slowly take those guys out and maybe, maybe well make a final during the process.

 

[mitch richmond]

Bit of a shame we didn't kick straight today, would've won by 12 goals and Hardwick would've been getting praised for outcoaching Paul Roos.

 

[Sol23]

We won't, take it to the Hardwick thread and discuss it there.

Ok mr serious

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

TANK!!!

 

[Jimmybob]

This isn't for venting.. it's a discussion and changes thread. Go here if you wanna whinge and rant about the game

 

[This Is Anfield]

For those that are taking me super serious re my earlier post - my humble apologies to MR Barry_Badrinath & Calcium Man
And any others offended by my darksided, negative knee jerk - it was my first journey to the dark side!

 

[Jedwards]

Why is Shaun Grigg playing contact sport anyway? The man is as soft as they come and can only tackle and try push around players smaller them him, his the type of person that gets his 'bigger tougher' mates to fight his battles, complete pea heart. Should be still on the scums list
