I am sick of RFC consistently playing aloose men and numbers behind the ball.
How on earth can we teach our kids to play accountable footy and play under pressure, having loose men is disguising the fact that we have soft players whose skills suffer when put under pressure, we will never win a final (let alone get there) if we continue to play this way.
TW please make our guys play man on man and contested footy, numbers around the ball and hardness at th contest. getting players loose and then turning the ball over is a recipe for disaster both short and long term.
The reason we cannot move the ball fwd quickly is because all our players are behind it, chip kicking sideways and backwards - backwards kicks should be banned at our club. You go fwd with it, you run handpass or you kick it. If our players are in their positions then there should be no shortage of options around the ground or up fwd. Right now if we look for an option its either beside or behind us, except for a triple teamed Richo which just results in the ball rebounding back to us.
This crap about missing our ruckman, so what, concede the ruck contest and man mark the opposing on ballers, when they get we crunch them and turn it over, what do we do.... we know we are getting killed in the ruck but will still stand loose 2 meters from our opponents..... dumb footy Richmond TW wake up to yourself
If the opposition want to play loose men then man em up, if that means we have 12 fwds in the fwd half so be it, make a contest and keep it in the fwd 50.
We dont have the skills to play loose and sides that do dont win premierships so lets stop *smile* farting around and play man on man and make some of our guys accountable or *smile* them off.
