Wow second draw.

GC are not easy beats.
Composure & experience they win that.

Yeah, but they lack composure and are inexperienced.

If we dont beat them by 6 goals were wasting our time

And it was a good move, McGrath just a half dozen innocuous disposals in the second half.
Not sure. Suns were well in front despite McGraths possessions and they effectively lost Miller in the second half. Often why Richmond and Collingwood don't bother tagging high possession winners.

Interesting comment from Zaharakis at the end how the Suns turn the ball over a lot as they try to go fast. That should play into our hands if so.
Agree a poor kick by Rankine. Bad miss by King to. They’d be kicking themselves the Suns.

Jonathan Brown kept banging on that now Essendon has a draw they don't have to worry about % to make the finals :rolleyes: , umm both Richmond and Collingwood are 4 points ahead on the ladder both with a percentage of 116% vs Ess 90%, percentage matters.

Certainly worked out well for us last year when we played em, they couldnt get the ball past their HF line until we racked the cue.

Was actually one of the games that helped us fire up the mojo and start our run.

Hopefully this next meeting can do the same.

Only acceptable result for us v GC And Es next 2 games is 2 W.

If we are going to challenge then they are non negotiable in fact they are pretty much all non negotiable from here.

1 hiccup maybe but no more.

4 highly winnable games and 2 serious hit outs against contenders.

Actually the draw was a good result for Richmond with our percentage covering both pretty easily.

I reckon out of the team's in the 8.
We are the most vulnerable i reckon.
Too many of our players are in really crap form Jack Lynch Castagna Stack Ross Rioli.
We had 2 that didn't go in the hub.
2 hard games against Geelong & Wc.
A couple of Tricky games against Freo and Gc.
Then we have Adelaide & Essendon.
