Let's hope we have a real party and not a wake.

Lets’s Go!

We had enough of the ball, just didn't couldn't get it inside 50 anywhere near enough. And 49 tackles - we couldn't really get our hands on them.

Still, 16th playing the premiers - that's much better than I was expecting.

[Professer E]

Broken tackles killed us

look, it was encouraging, better than last year, steps in the right direction....

but tonight, we had better treatment from the umps, they missed alot,
a few players got found out, young list, early days, next match will tell

And we lost Kennedy early. What's the latest on his injury?

ps didn't see much of the game at all....

Ankle, possibly good for next week.

Let's not forget the Tigers final series last year, the GF, plus the recent JLT series. A fair effort from us to be that close against clearly superior opposition.

Losing players to rotate was always going to make the last quarter hard.

Not bad effort, and we managed to score but a few passengers too many. Felt our back line was too tall which is hard against Richmond that have pace and pressure. Our half back ball movement is missing docherty already.

Still, a lot to like and we will win games this year as we move the ball quicker
Casboult's days are numbered, but not sure if McKay can be much of a replacement for a ruck chop out.

Umpiring was the usual mess of too many cooks.

So, all in all, with one man down for most of the game and Kreuzer nobbled for a big chunk.....pretty brave effort?
