How are were supposed to develop kids when there is no secondary competition?

You don't learn golf on the course.

Hey everybody ! Why so glum ?

In these uncertain, challenging, difficult times, when the future is anyone's guess, it's comforting to know that there are some things we can rely on, some things that are constants, and that provide some surety among all the confusion.

Anyhoo, go back to the pre game thread and most were predicting a 10 goal shellacking. Apart from Houli, they were basically full strength, whereas we had a number of outs. They are the form team of the last 3 years, and we have been, well.............

The numbers all look pretty good for us after 1/4 time, except for tackles and disposal efficiency. With the former,you should only lay 23 tackles when you control 80% of the ball and win by 70+. With the latter, this is why blokes like Brad Hill would have been fantastic for us, even if he was rather pricey.

It's another honorable loss against a super team.

Bloody Hardwick not so subtly suggesting that Lynch and Riewoldt were victims of dirty tactics by our defenders, and not picked up by the umps.

Yes Dow shouldn't play 1s for a long time. Poor draft pick, time will tell.

Newnes will get better as he gels, and he was NOT GOING TO BE DELISTED.

It would have been very weird out there - we were nowhere in the first quarter AND the umpires reamed us.

If we had converted a few more of the easy chances and not given them so many freebies, well. It's a game of inches.

On the umps, how many times did the umps let things play on when they were tackled - aren't you required to make an effort to dispose of the ball any more?

13 tackles in H1 says everything about where we were mentality.

44 points in one quarter - done and dusted.

Yet, we got back to what? 15 and had a chance to then kick another?

We are laughed upon how we complain about everything. injuries, umpires.. heard it all before

Excuse after excuse after excuse.

Buckle in for another bottom 2 finish.

But he does have talent. He just lacks confidence. I'm not sure how he is going to get that back given we don't have a VFL side.
A lack of confidence doesn't make you jog behind your opponent when you're probably equally fast if not faster, this guy chases at half rat pace, get rid of him, send the list a message!

I'm sure it happened on many an occasion but one stood out to me where that occurred. Can't recall who had the ball, but Dow was 'chasing' him, jogging behind him.....but Dusty was 'following him' as well.
First thought was CHASE HARDER.
Second thought was if he does, that means Dusty gets an easy handball receive and is off running into open space. So i'm not sure if it was intentional, but it was actually the right thing to do.

Fans often get frustrated when players are 'corralling' an opponent rather than tackling....but there is method to the madness. Corralling is usually playing the %'s. Sometimes attacking an opponent is high risk, low reward.

Again, not sure if it was intentional in the above example, i hope it was, but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt in that example.


Re: AFL Rd 1 2020: Post Game Post Mortum: Carlton vs. Richmond - madbluboy - 03-19-2020

Correct, sometimes giving up the chase is the right thing to do.

Having said that Dow needs to be dropped.
