I am lost for words, I just dont know anymore. :mad: These games are now giving me the shits.
 
We are nearly there. The boys need to clean up their skills and some in the backline need to be accountable.

Don't worry about it. It's these sorts of games that will build character.

Deledio showed massive courage. Roo won't forget that kick, probably practice them for the next year.
We should have won but didn't. Cheap words as they have the points. The upside is that (although the ladder says otherwise) we're headed in a different direction to the Sainters.

Happy with contributions for almost all.
Schultz made a couple of crucial mistakes at the wrong times but forgiveable.
Pattison however ..... he's a passenger.

Newman should have locked down on Milne when he was one of his 3 opponents. He is the VC after all. Kingy needs to control his temper, gave away a stupid goal 20 metres out.
 
We are headed in the right direction but we have a loong way to go.Consider everytime St.Kilda threatened to bolt it was Richo that stepped up to the plate to kick a goal.Similar theme against Hawthorn.Kicking skills and decision making very poor.Decision making is intuitive and instinctive.Difficult to teach which means maybe some of these players just dont have it.Effort and determination only goes so far.To reach the elite level you need many players in the team with a high degree of class.We dont have it.

Dont get me wrong I love that fact that we are almost there, but I have seen this happen before and if you start to lose too many then the bottom can fall out rather quickly and we are back to square one, these guys need to be rewarded and silly mistakes are still costing our club.

We really needed to win tonight, we have a week off and then Geelong.
 
Well Reiwoldt's shot was always unlikely , Moore's miss was less forgivable, but he's really a defender.

Would've been nice if Reiwoldt had recieved at least one of the three clear free's he deserved out on the far wing (on TV) in the last quarter.:mad:

It would also help if, when being tackled in our own 50 deep in the last quarter, to have the presence of mind to realise where they are in the field and know it's highly unlikely that they'll be called for holding the ball in congestion , instead of hurridly trying to dispose of it...invariably causing a turnover.

The kicking and options into the 50 are disgraceful and it's a real worry that we can have 30-odd more possessions than an out of form side full of walking wounded and be unable to get over the line.....

And finally it would be beneficial to actually learn from past mistakes and not allow the same player to consistantly tear us a new arseh*le year after year almost unchallenged , when that particular player is an average footballer at best.
 
i know i shouldn't be venturing into enemy territory and my opinions may be taken with a grain of sault who knows.

you boys are definately on the rise. tambling is starting to hit the young mans straps, and richo is in brownlow like form. unlucky not to take the 4 points tonight against the saints, the wins are around the corner and finals are too. 2009 i feel you'll be in the top 6.

unlucky tonight. good luck to you boys, definately on the rise. :thumbsu:
 
____ing ____ing ____ing hell. That is absolutely shattering. My hands are still shaking. Kel shoulda kicked the ____ing goal, but really, it was more likely he was going to miss than score considering he's a defender. The thing that shat me off most. Deledio nearly killed himself for the team, and a good team would react to that, and go nuts. But instead, we conceded a goal to the most annoying player in the league within 30 seconds. I ____ING HATE THAT MILNE ____, GO GET ____ED. LEARN TO ____ING SPEAK YOU HACK. And as if Richo wasn't 10 times better than Milne tonight, but Milne got the medal and Vossies vote. He kicked 7 goals, and I hate the way he kicks his goals. Richo kicked 5 rippers, was everywhere. ____
 
What do we have to do?

We need to learn how to stop a midget. We were beaten singlehandedly tonight by Stephen Milne.

#1 rule against a small forward. Stay goal side. He got so many easy goals.
 
_____ HELL...CAN'T WE JUST WIN THE _____ GAME
i'm sick of this near win horse shit all the time
someone up high obviously has something against us winning
wen terry said "dominate the contested clearances and that will win you the game" as the commentators told us...well yeh its true...if you're not richmond that is
i love richmond and i know "we are on the rise and developing our team" but ___ i'm sick of using that phrase as a gadam scapegoat for losing
 
Just got home and hurting.

I'm sorry if this is a bit premature as I was on level one justabove the race, but what he ____ was Hyde doing. He should be dropped, he offers nothing. Moore shoulda kicked that but what hurts more is hearing saints supporters tell each other "we got out of jail" ____s sake. we needed to win this game badly

Hyde was good on Montagna. Kept him to not many touches. I know what you mean though, sometimes you don't notice this at the game, you just follow the ball, but the commentators fill you in on tv. ____ing pathetic of him to give away two free kicks in the last quarter off the ball, especially one where they had just kicked the ball to Schulz 60 from our goal who took the mark.

You're kidding me. Hyde killed Montanga. He's our only tagger and he's played well last 2 weeks.
 
*Gets a knife and aims it towards his wrist*

What do we have to do?
Not give away 2 early goals and 3 in-total through direct kicks.
Newmans kick and Johnson IIRC missed the mark and were direct goals.


SHULTZ IS A ____ING HACK!!!!!!!!

How does steven milne kick 7 bloody goals? I mean kingy has to lern to man up, same withy newman. All of them were cheap goals...

thats why i said it might be premature, i couldnt see much of whathe did, just 2 off the ball free kicks stood out
 
i thought u guys were amazing 2nite
unlucky about those last two goals i feel the pain
very much like Kirks goal that was given as a behind

good luck for next week tigers shall roar

Cheers mate thanks for your support:thumbsu: i know it..i just f..king know were on the right track, though it still hurts losing to those SCUMS:mad:.

be patient we are not that far away we lack a little bit of muscle around the packs the saints are a bit more seasoned then we are by next season we will be stronger theres heaps to look forward too and i cant wait.
 
Geez really hurting. We can say what we like about about skills etc but we just make dumg decisions. The last three weeks at different stages of all the games we have had MOMENTUM and should have built decent leads but we manage to butcher the ball either through poor skills or shocking decision making. I'm fed up with having a dip and getting close. FFS Milne kicked 7 now thats goota be poor decision making
 
Congratulations on a really great game Richmond, your boys were very good for most of the night and it must have been devastating to fall just short. The delayed telecast just finished over here in the west and I was yelling so loudly at my tele trying to get you home that I think I woke the neighbours. I know what it's like, we had to go through the same thing last week when Pav hit the post with a shot that could've won the game, it's a rotten feeling. Just remember that Moore and Riewoldt stepped up and got possession when it was needed the most, try not to blame them for missing. Good luck for the season, you've got what it takes to make the eight :thumbsu: :)
