Pretty good performance last night and couldn't walk away too disappointed. Ground was oddly quiet for such a large crowd; i figure the richmond fans were not thrilled. Martin is a gun player and he dragged them over the line. He will many times this year as they dont have enough consistent performers.
As for us, it was good to see positive attacking football with structure and coherent teamwork. We got tired in the last quarter and fumbles started, but so did richmond. The interchange will have an effect. We rotated players throuh the ground quite a bit too, which helped us get some miss matches.
Others have commented on the positives; our senior midfielders played very well and got forward a bit which is required in the absence of reliable forward options. We linked up well and was most pleased with our kicking out and moving the ball from the backline. We had clearly a few set plays worked out which gave options.
Poor old Casboult must be feeling ordinary this morning. His confidence must be so low with ball in hands. What is next? Hypnotism? If he could kick straight he would be a genuine key forward and give his team mates great confidence.
Liked phillips around the ground. His tap work is raw, but he jumped over the top and kicked a really nice goal. Well done. Wright with 3 goals was very good with his finishing.
Long season but quite a bit to look forward to. Thomas in next week, probably for buckly who looked a bit lost or white.
