Same mistake, opposition kill us in 10 minutes.

19 minutes into the 3rd quarter and an all too familiar occurrence.


Richmond have the momentum and squander it and give North Melbourne (and any other ******* team) opportunity after opportunity to find form.

* North kicked 5 goals in 7 minutes and the game is over.

(and hey, even if it's not, **** you Richmond. I don't care, it's the same shit all the time, they never learn from their mistakes and I ******* hate following bullshit artists who don't learn from their mistakes).

* Last week in the second quarter against Geelong, the Cats kicked 4 goals in 5 minutes = game over.

* The week before against the Dees, in the slippery, slippery wet weather. They kicked 3 goals in five minutes = game over.

* Against the bulldogs, in the third quarter, the dogs kicked 3 goals in 2 minutes = game over.

In 2014, elimination final, Port kicked 10 goals in freaking what? 12 minutes? = Game over.

This has been happening for 6 years. We never score when we have the momentum, and when the opposition has the momentum, they kill us.

False hope, over it. Same mistake over and over again. I can't take it, I'm going to throw a brick through my TV. **** you Richmond, **** you.


Rant over/ .
If we had another coach with a better gmeplan apparently they would all do the same thing :)

Maybe if we get a coach with a simple footy game plan that even our dummy player's can execute we would not do the same thing.
Let's see -- see the ball go get it if the opposition has it try to take it off them or try stopping them. See the goal posts? try kicking more than your opponents win win thank you guys for your efforts today just remember to bring this game plan week in week out but you can have a rest in the off season.
 
The first half is the exact example of why the gameplan is useless. We were dominating, and yet we were losing, because the gameplan the players are using doesn't work. Our spread is horrible, and the ball movement patterns the players have been trained to use simply don't work. They result in constant turnovers because the players that are supposed to receive the ball are completely covered. This is without even mentioning the forwardline, which hasn't functioned properly for years.

Sums it up for me. This is why I know longer support keeping Dimma as our coach.

They do have confidence. Remember the first half? Game plan was also fine, thats why it was equal. Suddnely everyone starts giving away stupid frees and turning it over and they kick goal after goal. Dimma can't stoip this mid quarter. There isnt any time outs. Its up to the players to calm down, stop panicking and slow the game down for a bit.

what was so good about the first half.? they were still chipping around and missing easy shots at goal. There was no flow whatsoever, the result was never going to be any different when you start playing this chip around football.
 
Ugh, this is becoming the most circular argument of all time, and you guys are overcomplicating it.

It's actually pretty simple, a coach and his self appointed team come to a club, weigh in in 3-0-75 and fail to deliver. They are all in the gun, including the recruitment staff.

Players sign a contract to play footy for rfc, albeit badly at the moment. Given the fact they've actually GOTTEN WORSE it's unequivocal that either the game plan doesn't work or they are not being correctly motivated /guided through fixing their performance issues.

All points to massive failure on the off field side.

That's right. I think this has been an under explored area. Sure, the people in charge at the joint may be super people who have given it their best but it's quite obvious that their best isn't anywhere near as good as the best at other places. Look at Hawthorn. President was an ex-Premier. Maybe the Tigers need an equivalent figure to really shake the tree.
 
The players do try, but they go at 97% or 98%.



I could handle losses if we played with intensity over 100% all day, but we barely play 100% intensity for a full quarter, let alone a full game.






Interestingly talking about playing at 90-100%. Talking to Jake king yesterday. He had his 10th bout of surgery on his Toe and he was saying he doesn't know how he did it but he needed 10 jabs before getting out on the ground and was never able to play at 90% odd. Wonder how we are on the injury front ? we know full well about guys who are out but what about the ones who are not out but are unable to play at 90%....Guess we'll never know. Makes me wonder about what else we'll never get to know ? May also explain why sometimes the club makes decisions which leave us(supporters) Gob-smacked because we don't have the info the club Might??....Just a few thoughts #NOTANAPPOLOGIST

Very true, but every club has these issues re: injuries

Agree, but to what extent, who's affected & at what stage will clubs rest them(players) and the bearing of depth on that decision will vary I imagine ?....Difficult to say also, how much the way these issues are dealt with varies between each club.........
(I'm guessing quite significant)
