Game Day - Tigers v Swans

[zippadeee]

Seriously what's Hardwick whinging about?
If they had 2 extra defenders we should've had 2 spare coming into forward 50.
We couldn't hit a side of a barn going into forward 50.
He should've let dusty sit in the goal square one out.
And had lynch & Jack up the ground.
North will park triple semi down back next week.
All day Sydney looked like they had extra's all over the ground.

Geez , Longmire in his presser, what a tosser.

When the journo asked why did he end up leaving Allir out of the selected team he responds: " He just hasnt been playing well"

Well then why did you pick him in the side in the first place you nong!?

 

[silvertiger]

Longmire is a lying arrogant prick.

"We didn't put an extra player behind the ball, we went with the 6 6 6"

What?!?! You put an extra 5 blokes behind the ball! Every chance you could.
I'm glad Hardwick gave him a clip.

The game has improved since Ross Lyon has gone and when Longmire an Buckley go it will become better. They are all negative coaches who degrade the game.

If last year we were running at 100%
This year we are barely breaking into the 50% bracket.
So many are out of form its not funny.
What's Rioli doing?
Pickett not up to it?
Dusty wants the season to finish.
Jack got outmarked by Hayward.
Lynch shouldn't have played.
Short isnt a defender
Graham tooo slow.

Worse win ive seen us play

but we won and that is all that counts

 

[tiger76]

Longdire’s press conference was telling when his response to whether there was anything that he could take away from todays game started with, “Well when you’re still in the game with 6 minutes to go...”

Thanks Longmire; turn your defensive 50 into a town square and arm wrestle to the death. He should be a wrestling coach.

Ha! Didn’t realise Swans got two goals from 50m penalties.
So only kicked one goal from play.
Amazing

 

[tempany14]

i cant believe what im reading
we win with 6 of the starting 18 out
its as if its 2016
reality check every one 2020 is a terrible year and im greatful for any football and getting a win is a bonus

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

Rhett Bartlett pointed out this was Richmond's lowest winning score, equal with Round 12 1908 (5-4-34).

Yeah I know, short quarters etc.

 

[Tony Braxton-Hicks]

Blues beating Dogs, Dockers beat Saints, Giants lose...

4 points is 4 points, and we're half a game off second place. Bank the wins and launch into the business end of the season.

 

[gutfull]

Agree win ugly , the boys will fire up lots of rounds to go ....

 

[ToraToraTora]

Dimma literally said "Were attacking, and weve got 75000 people in our forward 50." Succinted it.

 

[tigertim]

Yeah, I reckon Longmire will park the bus from the first bounce.

I did have a suspicion but didn’t think he’d park the whole fleet!

 

[jb03]

Good on Dimma for saying it. We should have been trying to get the ball into Short and Balta's hands outside 50 and gone for a long bomb. We would have outscored them in behinds alone.

 

[royce67]

Well that stank. We need to find a way to beat this park the bus tactic.

[/QUOTE

Looks at score... I'm sure we won...

 

[Tigers2011]

Hardwick has never coached well against a team that floods back & hits us the counter attack with run from behind the ball. Too often the mids, centre line & even half backs get sucked towards the ball & we get flogged going the other way.

Nth & the Dogs did exactly that to us last year. The solution is to hold our own lines & use extra numbers to run it inside 50. Don’t clog our own forward 50 with midfielders & wingers. Plus with numbers set back - it counters the fast break of the opposition.

Centreline players shouldn’t go inside 50 arc & halfbacks should form line across the centre. Agree with comment to have long kickers take shots from the top of the arc.

 

[royce67]

What highlight, name 1?
Does the final siren count??

I have it on poor advice that some of EZ's work around the bundy bar was pretty handy a will turn up in the PRE highlight package.

 

[Tigaman]

Orrible game tactics by Horse which became a farce once the rain set in. Think SHocking should introduce fines for coaches who make the game a flog. Also think our younger brigade Pickett, Egg, Aart, Chol, Balta deserve a pat on the back for gutsying it out.

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

Jack is 6 from 6 as acting captain.

 

[craig]

Good on Dimma for saying it. We should have been trying to get the ball into Short and Balta's hands outside 50 and gone for a long bomb. We would have outscored them in behinds alone.

This exactly this
