QF Game Day - Richmond vs Brisbane Lions

[Puntrd64]

After all that to be down only 2 goals is very lucky

 

[Rfc4Ever]

Would love to see us either take the first option or just kick the *smile* ball.

 

[The_General]

Very preliminary final like quarter that one. We looked slow and sluggish, like we lost momentum over the bye.
If the Lions had kicked straight, we'd probably be in a world of pain from here. However, they haven't and we aren't.

We just need to put an alarm clock in the quarter time huddle, and get everyone to realise it's not Thursday training anymore.

 

[casper68]

Another good win for the Boomers, please make it a double tonight Tigers.

 

[R_for_Richmond]

The freakin dumpires should be wearing Brisbane jumper FFS. Sheesh. I don’t usually swear but come-on.

 

[Tenacious Tiges]

Yep, rope a dope. Absorb their hardest and then hit back.

We hope. Ch 7 flogs barracking for the Brions

 

[dimmauchump]

Some of players are playing like it's their first final. Terrible. Ellis, Short woeful. Midfield non existent. Pressure non existent. Rioli and George non existent.

 

[scottyturnerscurse]

Lucky to be as close as we are. Going to be a battle.

 

[Birdman19]

Regroup, settle, get our game going. Bit lucky with the umpiring.

This. Baker onto Cameron. Grimes to Rayner jack Graham to Mitch Robinson

 

[jb03]

Yep, rope a dope. Absorb their hardest and then hit back.

Wishful thinking?

Rioli thoroughly invisible.

 

[dimmauchump]

Graham looks like a grandfather. So bloody slow.

 

[waiting]

Commentary unbearable.

Our forward pressure poor.

Midfield getting smashed.

Repeat entries putting our backs under tremendous pressure.

If the Lions had kicked straight it could have been over.

Need to regroup otherwise it could get really ugly.

Many players down and playing poor thus far. Missed handballs & kicks.

30-18 Us

Lift.

 

[seven]

They’ve cut our run. Just bombing it long every time.

 

[dimmauchump]

Any chance we might try and work it out of our backline instead of kicking it straight to them everrutime.

 

[Fighting Fury]

Absorb and get our game going.

 

[tigerlove]

We have liabilities everywhere so far.

If Ellis ever wins a one on one I'll be hysterical

 

[craig]

That out on the full by Ellis was a critical turnover probably couldve been a goal to us but then handed back the other way.

We cannot do that tonight.

Gave them a leg up whilst we were holding them.

Its all momentum and energy for them.

 

[zippadeee]

This is similar to the port final
Without the margin

So far this finals who wins the first quarter wins the game
