Scott Camporeale half time spray

[Valve Bounce]

Knights told MMM that he didn't have to say much at half time; Scott Camporeale gave the team a spray that could be heard 3 walls away.
Thank God the midfield took their fingers out, and the tackles came hard and fast all around the ground after that. I think the stats were 11 disposals per goal after that.

They should do it at the start of the game, we don't seem to spark until we have had atleast a quarter break.

first quarters have been wretched all year and second quarters have been ok but always catch up football.

like i said in the other threads, our skill level was more or less the same as the tiges. the difference of 40pts in the score reflects our leg speed and fitness relative to theirs.

Actually, if you were there, you'd clerly see our guys were an embarrasment all over the ground. The Tigers ere getting clearances, they were breaking away and their forward passes became uncontested marks, converted to goals.

After half time, the Bombers broke up Richmond's game: their gets were taken away from them, our guys either won the ball or if they didn't, they just took it off the Richmond players. Their breakaways dried up, and any forward passes were heavily contested. Suddenly Paddy and Watson started killing their opponents. It was all desperation and of course, if Lovett got the ball, he did some really classy stuff with it.

In the end, desperation won us the game.

Our disposal was just terrible in the first two and a half quarters.. Some of th turnovers were terrible, but i put it down to some great pressure from the tigers.

They just didn't have the skill level to really make us pay when they really should have. Our accuracy in front of goal compared to theirs probably kept us in it. As soon as we drew level they just kind of fell apart. Their pressure fell and they just became a rabble. Almost took away some of the satisfaction of the win.

We played crap and won by 7 goals.

I'm content. This week.

I'm content.

Agreed on both accounts there.

Campo isn't bad for an ex Carlton player

Well, Sheeds wasn't bad for an ex Tiger.

Richmond were always going to come out strong in the first half, most clubs would be pumped to try and put all there off field issues aside and win a game. I expected that they would be winning half time and that we would just blow them away in the last half.

 

[Darealrath]

They deserved it.

From where I sat, yea the Tigers had come to play but we had come out for a bit of kick to kick.

First half performance was embarrasing:

• Clearance work disgrace
• Dropping chest marks Consistently
• Dropping the ball while running along
• Missing targets by hand and foot
• Chosing not to attack the ball
• etc etc

The deserved every bit of the spray the copped but responded as a decent team should. Hard to take a great deal from the game given that Richmond played the way they did in the second half. I would hate to be a Richmond fan.

It was the way Richmond players were allowed to clear so easily, giving them a lot of time to find a forward who them marked unopposed. That worried me because our guys were just coasting and not applying any pressure.

On the other hand, I went with a Richmond supporter and we were both happy : he was happy before half time, and I was happy after half time.
