Wow, some of the pro-Casboult and anti-White comments on this thread are hard to believe. Head shaking stuff.
Casboult has no place being on any AFL list, let alone ours, with the kicking 'skills' he possesses. I'm gonna lose my shyte if I have to put up with that all season. His kicking appears to have regressed at a fair rate since last year and quite frankly, it's unacceptable.
I saw Simon White make 2 consecutive errors in the 2nd quarter....and they weren't good, but apart from that, what the hell did he do so horribly wrong that has most of you calling for his head? Give me a break.
I'm not at all guttered by the result, but massively encouraged - haven't felt this optimistic in the list for quite some time, not to mention the game style, which has been completely overhauled and modernised.
We're still a fair way off being an elite list, so the skill errors are gonna haunt us for a while yet - but geez, when it all clicked tonight, how good did we look!?
I loved the Kreuzer/Phillips ruck combo and happy to admit that the person who I claimed was the biggest spud in the AFL.....Sam Rowe, was more than serviceable tonight. Absolutely hated Buckley's game though.....not sure what his role was supposed to be, but it failed miserably and for mine, Bolton took too long to act on it.
Thankfully overall, so much more to love than not about our performance tonight. Richmond once again stamped themselves as a middle-of-the-road team and nothing more. Kerridge kicks that goal at the start of the last, Tigers drop their heads, game over....*sigh*.....if only.
