Game Day - Richmond Tigers vs GWS
- Thread starter tigertime2
- Start date
Not sure about Dimmas pushing. Did Newman get a push? He needed to wake up. Not sure Hunt got one either. Morris wouldn't have got one. The players needed to get into gear no doubt.
We supporters wants to shake a few players, sure. But we can want that, knowing we'll never have the chance thank Christ!
But I reckon that move weakens Dimma actually.
Either that, or we have to get used to see him pushing everyone who drops their game. Fine line between being firm and just well... A *smile*.

Need to cut him some slack considering whats gone on this week.
I know its upset me and many others that never new Phil. Let alone those who knew him.

Not the best game of footy I have watched as it took over three quarters for the Tigers to come alive and despite woeful kicking we got the points and that is what really matters right now

Spitting is never accidental.
His best bet, if he gets a 'please explain' is to say he had some phlegm and was spitting on the ground
Greene should at least answer some questions from the MRP, because it's a shocking look for the game. Hopefully gets a fine and a warning. According to Cameron, he and Miles are actually quite good friends off the field. Sheds' goal from the centre clearance in the last quarter was Ablettesque.
There's a showreel video under media for this game in the official sites here thry show the 3/4 break dimma spray, the 5 last q goals, and the defensive efforts
Fine stuff!! I Just keep watching it.

spot on Tassie.
Robert Shaw said this on SEN this morning - this victory is more important than the Freo game or the Swans game. This is our best win. Everything was against us this game, it had that "this is not our day" feel.
But we dug deep and won it.
Well done Dimma and the boys. Same again against Cartoon next week.
I can't believe some of the tripe I've read hear that Dimma shouldn't have fired up and pushed a few players.
My god, it fired us up. It obviously meant a lot to him this week, a lot to Chocco and Lade too. Sure you don't want it every week, but when a good old spray is needed, you make it count. I have no problem with what he did. He adressed them like grown men and it worked.

Personally I'd like to see more of it. We played like cream puffs for 3/4ers. Thank christ we came out in the last and played the footy we should be playing every quarter of every match. Seems to be a bit of laziness creeping in. 1st half against the Swans was the same, lack of intensity. The positive is we are now god enough to win on a bad day, even against quality opposition. To take us to the next level, top 4, we need intensity more consistently. Hopefully this will improve in the back half of the season leading into finals.

Agree ant. The only thing I didn't like about Shaw's comments was he thought GWS got the raw end if the stick with the umps a couple of times. Yes, Miles was lucky in the last minute to get so much time but the umps cost us at least 3 goals so no way could you say on balance the GWS were stiff with the umps. In that instance yes, but overall no.
Some are underrating this win, these were the sort of games we lost in 2012 - think West Coast, Geelong, Fremantle, Gold Coast, Nth Melb. All games I reckon we should have won. We've matured as a group.

The one that really pissed me off was the goal kicked from the boundary line in the third... forget the player. Ump puts him on the line, right against the fence. Then he effectively plays on, runs off the line when OUT OF BOUNDS. Surely that's a throw in? I don't know the exact rule here but playing on when out of bounds seems wrong to me.
Good kick though.
