QF Game Day - Richmond vs Brisbane Lions

He was not on his own. As someone else posted on Saturday night; the Channel 7 commentary team may as well have called the game from the middle of the Brisbane cheer squad.

They'll get pretty confounded trying to find the middle of The GWS cheer squad next week.

I suppose they'll just stand beside her?

Won't be an issue easy. They'll just resume their place in the Brisbane cheer squad.

Poor Jed, he found out what happens at Richmond when one of our players is being held and scragged all game. We dish out a backhander, just like the one he copped.
 
Poor Kingy on sen struggling to explain how we slapped brisbane off the park when all the stats say the opposite. Doesn't have the stop rance stop richmond to fall back on. His champion data stats are giving him nuthin.

Kingys an overpaid moron. Its interesting that the only one in the media that seems to understand why we beat Brisbane is Bartel.

Gee, hasn't Soldo improved in spades.

His bulk is hard to move and his tap work was exemplary the other night.

He also makes more of the right decisions.

Loved our overall game on the weekend, not many faults apart from the obvious one.....................................

Hit us hard, we will absorb it.

Bomb it long, we will mark it.

Scrub it in, we will crumb it.

You have X, we have Dusty.

We even have a potentially dangerous dual ruck proposition. This makes me more confident we can come up with a plan to work NikNat and Grundy over.

There isn't much we can't do these days.

Having said all that, there are no givens to winning a Premiership but it is good to know we have the right weapons in place to maximise our chances.

Get around 'em, Spring is in the air ;)

GO TIGES!!!

You nullify Nic Nat and Grundy by jumping early and sticking your knee in there ribcage and guts every ball up.

We work them over physically wth body shots and tackle them into the ground every opportunity they will slow right down.
I would want watch the reply again but my ONLy concern is allowing a side 29 shots on goal.!

Before anyone has a go.

1. I’m always half glass full. Scars can take many many years to not be at the background. Voices in your head stuff.

2. Not one eyed ALL Tigers can’t do wrong and don’t look at what can be improved and worked on.

3. How many were rushed?

4. How many were right in front?

5. How many were touched on the line?

6. How many were on an angle/wide?

I know all it takes is to kick goals out of your backside . We saw how accurate WC were against us and we have to say , for once in a long time, we were bloody accurate.

18-4

When was the last time we were so accurate.

Whether we play WC or the Cats we have to rectify that aspect. We wouldn’t want WC having if we play them 29 shots on goal. They are a arsey goal kicking side!!

Say my thoughts after thinking about the game in a more clearer light that’s all.

Maggots are as arsey as they come also when it comes to kicking goals.

Maggots and West Coast are the arsiest goal scoring sides in the comp I reckon.

He throws all these flash stats out there & changes his mind & opinion on things after they happen, not before hand . Sometimes footy is simple , get the ball & put it through the big sticks, he & others like to dissect it & make themselves look fancy & justify their roles in the media.

He was a dirty player and I never understood how he continually managed to keep his job as an "analyst".
 
According to the time stamp I make it a 12.03 kick off.... bloody fine work if you can keep yourselves sweet!
I blame Taz for booking a hotel straight acrosss the road from the function, the picture may have been taken a few minutes before 12-03 ;)

Did they upset any of the Brisbane supporters for being too loud?
I got told off for saying “baaaaallll” too loud...true story.

I was surprised how little knowledge of the game many of the brissy “faithful” have, and also how cocky & in your face they were...really had to restrain ourselves from biting but, we had the last laugh...

Brilliant atmosphere pre, during and post game created by our army. Highlight for me was the shafston pub before the game, and then the march to to the gabba...amazing scenes to see such an army of yellow & black in foreign territory...obviously the game and the win was awesome too - never in doubt! Go you Tiger - EAT EM ALIVE!!!

Moron seems the best trait to have if you want to maximise your chances of working in footy media.

Thought it interesting that Neale played 94% game time and Zorko 87%. In contrast our two most prominent midfielders played Prestia 78 and Edwards 73. More depth to cover through the midfield? That's pretty high game time for those midfielders. Cotchin only played 66%. Still being managed?
 
has anyone of note publically criticised ch 7’s performance on Saturday night? I’ve seen a lot of Richmond fans complain about it on social media… but no one of note from the media as yet.
Let me get this straight Ian. You are looking for the media, specifically commentators, to complain about other commentators? I see.

Have to laugh about all the stats n numbers that all the media flogs n experts use to justify expected quality of performance or victory. It was the Moggies who seriously ramped up the hyper possession game on their way to 3 flags. So every other club typically tried to follow suit.
We've simply found a much better n easier way to play the game. It's called efficiency n team effort. Footy's always been a fairly simple game n coaches are masters at over complicating it n trying to make it fancy.
Dimma's just dumbed the game down to the basics n lets everyone have some fun while playing it.
They've got the ball, get it back off them.
We've got the ball, share it with your team mates.
The balls loose, Chaaaaarrrge get it somehow or whack it towards a team mate.

Dimma's got 17 coaches n 99.9999% of the media pickin their dates trying to work us out.

Nick Riewoldt’s probably the other one. He’s become quite the Richmond supporter since he retired. Got to be the influence of cousin Jack.
