Where are those figures from? CD had Richmond winning the centre clearances 13-10, and other clearances 24-14. Which was how it felt watching the game.

Refer my post 89 of the Changes v Adelaide thread. Richmond did win the clearances but most clearances on the night came from opposition taps.
 
AFL stats from today

West Coast 60 hitouts Hawks 36

West Coast 36 clearances Hawks 44

West Coast 34 inside 50s Hawks 68

Hampson is not the answer unless the question is "Be very afraid"

The last decent hawk ruck was Don Scott. Have won about 10 flags since then. Maybe Thomas was right.
 
Or Carlton v Swans

Hitouts 46 - 28 Carlton's way
Clearances 37 - 30 Swan's way
Inside 50s 69 - 44 Swans way

That was as good as Hampson is going to play. And even then his direct opponent kicked 2 goals including the sealer.
See him try and slap at Grundy when he kicked for goal. Pathetic!!!
I never wanna see this bloke dirty a rfc jumper again. Why we accept mediocrity is where we at at!!! Get serous rfc.
 
Will be very interesting on how he goes against Jacobs today. I just saw the highlights on our website of when we last played. Jacobs smashed Ivan in the ruck and created 2 goals from his tap work. With our lack of midfield depth we need Hampson to at least half the ruck contest. As I expect nothing from him around the ground.
 
Hampson will turned into Polly Farmer at 2 o'clock today and take us to premiership glory

Jacobs will crucify Hampy.

Or in front of goals at either end!

It doesn't matter if your black or white
 
I don't understand the point of selecting Hampson today.

We may as well have gone in with an extra midfielder or forward.

Hampson will get beaten by Jacobs in the ruck, and then that's it. He has ZERO value around the ground (Max: 9 possessions today, 2 marks, 0 goals 2 behinds).

If Hampson loses the tap out (or more likely, taps to the opposition) then we are playing one down. And he will lose the ruck battle.

I'm happy that we are trying something with selection this week, to the point that I would be understanding about a loss, but if it comes on the back of the Hampson selection, it's going to be frustrating.
 
Hampson to have a blinder today, 39 tap outs, 2 goals and 3 votes. And tomorrow I'm getting the no.16 on the back of my guernsey! Get on the hampson bandwagon!!!

Will you get pulled up Swan Street by a draught horse, sitting in a bathtub, with Hampson scrubbing your back if he does?

Wow. You must have has some of the good stuff this morning. The more likely scenario is that we could be witnessing his last game for the RFC today.
