In Game Perspiration: AFL 2021 Rd 11: Carlton vs Richmond

[PaulP]

They are make the most of their chances we are trying our arses off but just lack the last poise to finish it. Not that far off.

I agree. The boys have given a good account of themselves thus far. If Harry had more composure and kicked those 2 goals where he rushed it, we'd be in the lead. Hopefully we don't get blown away in the last.

Still a bloody stupid choice krud ....

I never thought we'd get a hiding, so that (if we don't get up in Q4) is one meritorious start to 2021.  If Betts and Williams had been out there ... sigh

I expect the tigers to get a rev up and smack us from here.

I expect us to tire and make stupid decisions due to fatigue.

I expect this to be a 'close, but not good enough' game that we seem to have against the tigers every year.

I'd like to see something different.

I'd like to see LOB win us the game. Don't think he's had a touch since half time, at most 1.
I'd like to see Harry take a mark. Stop. Go back and kick a drop punt at goal!
I'd like to see SPS play hard, uncompromising footy and kick 50m to our advantage, not short kicks, that fall short.
I'd like to see to see us get a few 50-50 free kicks go our way.
I'd like to see a win.

Not sure when Silvagni hurt himself but well before he was subbed off he was heading back towards goal and I thought his arm looked to be hanging strange. If he did that run and chase after being injured it was even more impressive. Showed a bit of toe we don't normally see from him.

Whatever other faults he may have, he is above all else a pure footballer.

Commentators say it was in the tackle that he did it.

and gives 100% to the Jumper

Am i negative if i point out LOBs fumbling the mark?
Am i negative if i point out his kick went right over our head and to the opposition?
Am i negative if i point out it went STRAIGHT down the other end and through the big sticks?


Shat himself.
F***ed the kick.
Way too common.

LOB again.  Geez ...
