[crashlander]

I don't expect to win, but I'll be damned happy if we do.

From the Hun:

Final teams

The final team sheets are in – and there are no late changes for either Carlton or Richmond tonight.

Both teams will go in as named.

Same sh!t different year!

[BluePhantom]

Need more grunt and run from the mid fielders and more leads from the forwards.
Simpleness!

[townsendcalling]

Plenty of teams will be spanked by more than that by Richmond before the year is out.

Waiting waiting for the day it all changes

4 years, better team, game plan still hopeless. Our mids don't run so there's no way of opening it up for our forwards. Such a tough problem scoring. We have the players now.

Oh and that makes me feel better?????????????????

Totally disagree 24 possessions in a return match,  hard at it, rusty at time. I thought he was most impressive. We all see rhings differently!!

I know he's impressive.

What i said was that he struggled to make an impact.

Yes 24 touches is good, but as i just got through saying Ed Curnow had 25 touches. Did he have a good game?

IMO a lot of Setterfields touches were very vanilla. I guess my expectations on him were higher as most of his efforts had little impact on the game.

But i do like the kid, got him in my supercoach.

Agree TC. Thought he looked lively and invested, made some good decisions. When you consider how much footy he's missed.

Thought Gibbons also had a real crack. Looked energetic and full on the whole night. Phillips and Daisy among the votes for me. Garlett quiet but did a bit in the last.

Young Walsh looked a bit off the pace, but that's to be expected.
