I yelled more expletives tonight than I usually do in a year. Casboult's set shots are slowly killing me. I love the guy, but.......................

Anyway great effort from the boys, an enjoyable game to watch almost completely pain free (Casboult excluded).

We have an absolute gem in Weitering. Already our best defender lol.

Cripps is completely unplayable. Look away handballs are sublime. Peripheral vision unparalleled. Just a skilful beast in every sense of the word.

Murphy looked to thrive on the contest. Some brilliant football. When he tired we stopped.

That was the most disappointing loss I can remember for four or five years, the game was there for the taking but we just didn't have the ability.
Buckley, Everitt and White need a holiday, I don't know what we've got available but we can't afford passengers with our skill level.
If Casboult can't start kicking straight in short order he can join them.

Agree on White.  Buckley did the right things off the ball, defensively.  And Everitt, when he's switched on, is our only forward who can kick in a straight line.  That dropped mark was awful, but I'm not sure we can afford to drop him.

Close game , gripping to the the end , still had hope until about 2 mins from full time. Much better all round than anything last year.
We also had players out, juddy would have been useful in the last 10 mins

I agree with all this Chris. Hard to believe it was Weitering's first senior game.


Re: post game - Bear - 03-24-2016

Buckley looked a bit lost out there... hasn't played too many games up forward.

Everett still kicked 2... We need guys who can kick goals.

Murphy and Cripps both faded, also think Murphy got a knock on his shoulder in the 3rd qtr.

Yep
Hopefully the coaching group are on top of that.

Levi's kicking was as bad as ever tonight...it was back to scratch again.
We need a player running either side of him whenever he marks to take the kick. :Smile

If Weitering's that composed in his first game he'll be something special in his 100th Wink



Re: post game - Mondy - 03-24-2016

If they play like that all year I'll be one happy supporter.

There were moments when we looked like Hawthorn.  Especially that passage of play when Everitt ended up dropping the mark.  The precision kicks opened Richmond up.


Re: post game - andyc - 03-24-2016

Gibbsy busy as well


Re: post game - LP - 03-24-2016

Someone please explain to me how Rance can be allowed to hold onto the ball for several seconds then scribble it out across the ground while other players get pinged for holding the ball instantly or incorrect disposal?

Rance gets away with slow disposals in tackles time after time after time, he is allowed seconds more than other players in the competition.
