It was fantastic. Had him lined up well before Jone took possession and then connected at the perfect moment!
Thought and hoped that might have finished Jones for the night - but fair play to him for keeping going. Must have hurt.
 
Very disappointed with Townsends game tonight , Did not really influence the game tonight and kicking was off but most disappointed that Lever actually walked off the ground tonight

Yep overall he's been struggling. Just a tad too slow which seems to be showing him out a bit.
 
What about the tackle on Jones early in the second quarter :eek:

Seriously hurt him. Towner is a beauty :hihi
 
Congrats to Towner for membership in the Almost Greatest Mark of All Time BY a Richmond Player Club.

He needs Caddy in the team. Similar game to the one against Hawthorn.

Yep, said it before the match. He and Caddy work really well together.
 
Have we had a better tackler , just needs a finger nail on em and he wraps em up.

Love Towner and there’s no doubt he offers so much more then just acurate goal kicking, however imagine a Lynch in his place
 
Did he kill the Melbourne captain?
Jones was wired up, imagine the noise that created. It would've been like a bus hitting him

Sloppy was pretty good but second to Towner
 
I loved his game yesterday. I know he didn't have his best stat game. I thought I counted three goal assists and did everyone see the second tackle on Jones. Jones actually got the ball away this time but it was like a mouse being hit be a striking snake - he took possession and Townsend lined him up and nailed him, again and at speed. He nailed Lever as well for old times sake. I can see Townsend not being able to hold off players like Higgins or Lynch for his spot forever and I will genuinely be upset if he is dropped.

I want Townsend to improve and hold his spot for the season. Why you ask, because if he doesn't and gets offered a good deal next year by another club do you really want to see Cotchin or Dusty being nailed by Townsend like Jones was?

Very poor last night overall. Could be in trouble when Caddy comes back.

No chance. His presence in that forward 50 alongside Castagna are 90% the reason we are on top.
