Agree, and just me being upsetDon't know about biased, just stupid, unfair decisions where these flogs have to wake up and admit....but they never do.

Yeah. I can accept a loss if these free kicks weren't so advantageous to a team, us included.Agree, and just me being upset
Swans gameplan today was actually very similar to what the Pies did to us in 2018. New rules make It easier to execute though i still think you need to play the perfect game to execute it and today they did as did the Pies in 2018. Question is how many teams can execute it and play their prefect game? Swans wont have the same result against if we played next week. The dilemma for the coaches is do we panic and try and reinvent the wheel or stick to our guns and recycle the team till we find the right amount of hunger and experience to have a crack again this year. Going to be an interesting one. Reckon it will be harder to win it this year thsn last even though we spent the majority of the time on the roadYep. Our system does not work with these rule changes that have created an uncontested game. Dimma will be a master coach if he can change our surge footy attack and inpenetrable zone defence to counter precision kicking. Hocking has done his job at last - he has finally stuffed us - with rule change #27...
Best thing to realise changes and updates now than later. I blame the coaches on this loss. Not enough of due diligence when it was all in the media since R1. I never liked the teasing we do in games and this showed how we can get exposed today. Can't wait to get the faster kids in.Swans gameplan today was actually very similar to what the Pies did to us in 2018.

Very surprising how our system broke down - can't recall in all the other smashings how easy the opposition found a free player inside their 50.
Hawthorn last year. St Kilda 17. Thats 2 recollections without even trying. It happens.Very surprising how our system broke down - can't recall in all the other smashings how easy the opposition found a free player inside their 50.
So if we forget the second quarter, we won.I think people have short memories.
when we lose, we look dreadful.
its pretty much the richmond way.
swans kicked 8 goals in the 2nd quarter ........ and won by 7.5 goals
I dont think that's true.
just off the top of my head, in '17,
crows and saints demolished us.
unless crows piled on 15 goals in a quarter, I think it was a comprehensive, 4 quarter shellacking
in '19, we got schooled by 50 on several occasions.
it happens.
Looks like the brainwashing is just a quarter of the way there for them.I thought today’s game resembled that crows game in 17 , we looked lost for answers to their attack ,
And funnily enough , pyke is looking after the swans attack , they are looking a bit like the crows in 17 .
Exactly.I think people have short memories.

Our academy is great. We wouldn't have Egg without it.I went today. Really *smile* performance, umpires absolutly shocking once again.
And Sydney spend 2 years struggling and then they wake up with Matthew Lloyd, Chris Judd and Luke Power.
Where the *smile* is our academy??
I should be so lucky. Straight to the MRP for me and a 6 week ban!I think The Richmond Process
is a bit like making love to your wife, or husband.
it mostly works very well. its predictable, and if you both play your role, good things happen.
but on the odd occasion the system breaks down, maybe you become outcomes focussed? or dont put enough time into the opposition?
its dreadful,
and you grab a stubby, drink it by the light of the fridge,
and go to sleep.
and front up next week full of optimism. or if your lucky, youlle get a 3 day turnaround.
you might tweek the system slightly, but you stick to The Process,
and dont care what anyone says beyond your 4 walls.
