Rich Vs Adel (March 11th, 2011)-Teams [Merged]

We are *smile* make no mistake about it. There's really only Riewoldt, Cotch, Deledio, Martin, Foley and Conca who can take us forward with confidence. Can't say much about the rest. Why can't be beat a forward press, zone yet? It's an utter joke! Crap coaching.
 
Aren't we meant to be a bottom 4 side anyway? Take it as it comes not much you can do about it. I hear GWS are looking for fans go join them.

Was it last year we beat Geelong by 10 goals in a practice match? Get a grip people the season hasn't even started and we've gone backwards and we're no good yada yada yada. I'd rather win in rd 1 then win a meaningless and that's what it is practice match.

Take a look at the replay. It looks like the club and players have slept through the preseason.
 
hence why i will not become a member. i was for a long time and shelled out alot of money but its the same old same old no improvement, all i want is to be competitive not embarrased

Will you be happy with another 0-9 start?? Will you be happy with more 100+ point smashings?? Will you be happy to see Mcguane time and time again give away stupid free kicks to cost the team momentum? Will you be happy to see Edwards hit a target 1 out of 10?? Will you be happy to see M.White grab the ball take players on and then have a brain freeze and couugh it up?? Will you be happy to see Jackson a so called leader continuously butcher the ball by hand and foot?? Will you be happy to see another Richo gameplan being built around Reiwoldt?? Will you be happy to see another year of zero influence from our ruck dept?? Will you be happy to trod along another couple of year until Deledio, Foley etc are too old to make a difference and the guys under them haven't developed so we start again??

At the moment that is exactly what i see happening. Hope im bloody wrong and everyone gets back on this forum and gives me heaps for it. We contiue along this current path i doubt it very much. Only chance is Malthouse leaving the Pies.

You've cracked them regularly on here in regard to that after losses. If you don't want to be a member then good luck to you. Thankfully not everyone feels that way or we'd be a real mess. When we come good I'll be happy to know I did my best to help us get there.
 
Oh my god we got beaten in a practice match.... oh the pain ..... oh the agony......oh the sky is falling ......

get a grip people, its a PRACTICE MATCH....... it means even less than a NAB cup game FFS

Felix, I'm a Member who pay a LOT of money for my membership and then I contribute during the season in various ways. If you're not a member and supporting the club in the best possible way the HOW THE *SMILE* do you expect the club to improve in the little ways that every member contributes to. Oh sorry, thats right, you were embaressed ........ my heart bleeds for you ::)
 
Grigg had 29 touches, 13 marks and a goal. Apparently Foley also had another 25 or so touches. Good to see him back playing well and fit.

So true it makes me cry. Pehaps we should change from the Richmond Tigers to the Bears!! We seem to hibernate over xmas aswell!!

that's the attitude. :flush :flush
 
Can't believe the negativity on here! We are a work in progress FFS! Let's assess at the half way mark and at the end of the year.
 
what are the coaching staff doing. it cant be the players cause we have been down the bttom for ages, hence have been gettig a fair chunk of good young kids. who has develpd them?
whats the game plan, wheres the improvement, wheres the desperation
its not the score its the way we play the game. nothing has seems to have improved.

had just about enough of this same old same old shiyte last year, and it seems its coming on again this year...

mick malthouse, did u say u wanted a coaching job in 2012...... :help

Surely it's not too much to ask to see some improvement. In elite sport, you practice as you would play. Today's result with an almost complete team is embarrassing. If these results are mirrored this year in the real stuff, questions deserved to be asked. We're supporting the debt reduction and remaining members etc, time to see at least something on field. We should be more competitive than this.
 
I think i said in another thread that the fans understood where we are at and that there'd be no ripping up memberships or deliveries of chook poo this year. Maybe I spoke too soon!

Looks like the ferals are out...

Adelaide will make the finals this year. We won't.

Settle down people! :-*
