Preliminary Final Richmond v Port Melbourne

[Ridley]

Good win. Really struggled in 2nd and 3rd quarters but dominated last quarter.

 

[TigerForce]

Eggs looks like a player.

Looks good with that yolk hair.

 

[Smoking Aces]

Great last quarter.

Balta the key.

 

[dimmauchamp]

Gold Coast could do a lot worse.

Was just going to say that. They could do a lot worse than some of our 2nds. Towner, Butler, Menadue and Markov would work for them.

 

[dimmauchamp]

Looks like Port had the wrond DNA today

 

[Tigerfan]

Vfl boys have a date with a GF.
Well done.
2017 and 2019 still tracking on a similar path.

 

[leon]

We need to teach our big men to hold their marks, and insist on improvement. The number they get their hands on it and don't bring the ball down is pathetic, except CCJ who's no so bad.

They can give us another Prestia, Lynch, Caddy. Win-win.

Must say, I reckon Ayres is underselling himself. Should get back to AFL coaching by now. He looks like a ready made veteran in coaching.

Great to log on and hear this - what was the final scores

RICH 14.15 (99) def. PORT 10.13 (73)

Now we play Willy or the Bummers in the GF.

I think this was the turning point. When these guys saw Zipps post slagging them off, they all lifted, hence the win. Good on you Zips.

I was referring to Zips posts re Garth, KMac, Markov and Moore.

He's applied for every available job for the past 20 years. Hardly a shrinking violet old Ayresy.

Good win, Balta huge in the last. Menadue clearly best with 26 touches, 3 goals and a couple of assists. Weller was nice and tough, Eggs and Garth composed down back, Pickett creative while being tagged. KMac, Naish, Moore and Markov all lifted in the last.

Only downside is that Aarts will likely miss the GF as the player he hit looks to have a suspected broken cheekbone

Thanks - 4 goals is a solid win given they were trailing at half time.

Ayres has certainly got the hair for a veteran.

Silver lining is that Silvestro will deservedly get a game. Or maybe not, could be Stack in.

I thought he gave up. Why does he continue to fail then?

My guess is his game plan is as sophisticated as his mullet.
