Game day v #lolNorf

Higgins really needs to improve his kicking. There were at least 2 opportunities in that quarter where we should have goaled but he was too slow to move and then the kick was not to our advantage. His kicks are too high and slow. Something for him to work on.

We are looking more like the 2017-19 Richmond in this game. First time since the first quarter against Carlton in March. We haven't finished them off but that is our MO; we generally take the foot off when dominating. Hopefully we can snuff them out in the 3rd quarter.

Postives:

- Bolton. Electric in the middle. Our Edwards replacement.
- Egg. Silky smooth skills. Potential Houli replacement long term.
- Balta. Charges out of defence similar to what Rancey used to do. Must pile games into him. Im a big fan.

Negatives:

- Higgins. Give the first option mate. Makes some bad decisions that kill momentum.
- Riewoldt. Fumbling like crazy. Just cant seem to find that touch this season.
- Rioli. Where has the intensity gone with him? Looks like he is going at 50% whenever he appears on screen.

Reiwoldts fumbling has been insane.

We played really really well, but our conversion going inside 50 is atrocious..
Bolton was the only one to compose himself and hit up a teammate.
The rest are either bombing it in or just choosing the wrong option.
Hardwick needs to get that forward line open.
He needs to move some out to create space

Higlet burnt 2 great inside 50 attacks by second guessing himself and not handing off to Pickett on one and the second I cannot recall.

Jayden Short open and calls for it then pokes a kick from 40 instead of kicking through it and misses badly.

Bolton is the key to the Tigers tonight along with Choldo limiting Goldies dominance at ball ups.

Need to put some attention onto Higgins.

Gotta love a game day thread.......

Get six goals up: Dominating, how good is everyone, we're back.

Opposition kicks a couple of goals: Umpires are cheats, player is a dud, not good enough.

Nah the umpires were cheats before they kicked 2 goals

Soldo sets up the strike annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd George kicks it over the crossbar.

Another wasted chance at a key moment to put them under pressure straight away.
 
Bolton is burning it up, Im loving Eggsy also, pity we took the foot off the pedal in that last 10 mins.
