All ready for Sunday. I can't imagine us winnng without Cripps. :(
Evening all, should be interesting
Missing those set shots always a worry. & Charlei going off down to the rooms , never good
Worrying signs, this could be a long, dark arvo for we BlueBaggers.
This is going to be ugly. Our midfield is non existent.
And Paul Hazelby is the crappiest, most biased "special comments" person on this planet.
Come on Carlton, give us something FFS.
We have no one who can handle Fyfe....at the coin toss he made Ed look like a dwarf. He is a beast in these conditions.
Continuing our trend, letting Freo lead in q1. :-[
It will be a long day...
The coverage is woeful but I'm yet to hear Setterfueld, Kennedy, SPS or LOB.
Have we switched on post bye or still on holidays?
Utter ducking rubbish Carlton. Utter sh1t.
We make life hard for ourselves, missing set shots, giving away frees at while, always starting a qtr behind
No news on Charlie anyone?
Setters and Kennedy have found the ball, but butchered it.
We literally had no presence out there.
Cripps and Harry out, our other two major tall forwards in the rooms. We have nothing.
We just don’t work hard. I’m over watching us get mauled when we go for the ball, then letting them through easily when they get it.
Some super soft free kicks to them didn’t help.
Jeez, the disaster continues. The Gov also in the rooms.
Or Walters, Hill, not even McCarthy :-[
SPS, LOB have 3 touches between them.
Alright, this is the 3rd game in a row that we keep coming out and five the opposition a free hit at a first quarter.
I'm over it. Brisbane, Bulldogs, and now freo.
Rubbish.
Don't blame them getting in the queue for that.
This is simply embarrassing
Medial for Charlie.
Could have been worse but will miss some games
Telling if they haven't had any tackles.....
Why is McGovern off again?? Just when we need him with Charlie off, he goes missing again?
Because he's a weak, lazy, over paid bludger who's given three fifths of F all this season. Over him. Any excuse and he's off the ground.
Time to ditch some if these frauds. I'd be playing Kerr next week.
OBrien , frustrates me, just doesn't have much vision
The most annoying thing about LOB is that the rest of us have to pay to watch a game of footy. He gets paid.
About time.
Good one Gibbo
Well we are on the board, nice Gibbo
Great work by Casboult. Great pick up and left foot pass, which results in a goal.
Nice to see some run from Jones, at least creates opportunities
Like to kick some goals to take advantage of this. We're scrubbing the ball into the 50 the best way we can and trying to keep it there.
Lots of i50.
The goals have to cone. Surely.
Defence has been good , lacking targets. If ever there was a day set up for Gov to make a mark, this is it
Onya Samo.????
Dow learned to kick straight!
3 in a row.
Some great efforts out there, very impressive bursts, missing that finishing touches
I watched Brisbane v Melbourne today. Rayner produced one of the worst exhibitions of kicking i've seen in ages. missed every target by miles, missed every shot at goal. Must've been something about that draft.
LOB just did a good handball????
Gov finally does something!
Four in a row
On cue... Mitch slots one.
It's your time son.
Been very Richmond 2017 this qtr. Scrub it into the 50 the best way you can and fight like crap to keep it there. Getting rewarded.
Don’t know about the fighting, but yes we’ve been pretty crap. But somehow got back into it.
It's one of these games where one of the next tier players can come forward, make a name for himself and set up a career. Let's hope we see one.
7 v 21 i50's
Need to capitalize more.
LOB just burnt a chance for a shot from boundary. Have a go mate.....
Playing deep under instructions.
We did a good job of just keeping it in the 50 that qtr and got some reward. Dirty, scrubby ball then kept it there.
Hmmm, not sure we can have a quarter where Dow, Gov and LOB kick goals.
Hopefully gov can clunk and convert...
I wouldn't back Gov to hold a chest mark standing still at the moment. $%$$ing useless.
Umpires.......... OMG
Completely one sided.
Why can't these blokes come ready to play from the start. ::)
They must like playing catch up football.
Great effort to get back though (again).
Good to see Jones back there in defence playing as if he's never been away.
Good combination with Weitering
but Casboult isn't having a bad game... so that's a bit of win/win for us.
I don't think Murph is traveling too bad either today.
Lots of little cameos from the youngsters so all in all a good game so far.
They'll reset now so we have to keep up the effort.
Undermanned, but great effort, can we keep up the charge?
Hot Doggetty... Casboult kicks straight :-*
Kennedy from the the boundary and we’re ahead!
He seems to be playing as a forward today.
Nice to be in front.
Sheesh, this resilience from us is really something. 5gls down, no Charlie, no Cripps... and claw our way back into the game... very impressive.
Certainly some great efforts out there, need a little bit of luck and could be interesting
Ffs.
Frees to Freo is a charity act.
McCarthy only kicks goals against us. Memo SoS...this is not justification to trade for him.
Every week the umpires find a way to stop our momentum, when we actually have some
Could have had him Prof, didn’t Rogers take Menzel instead?
Didn’t we take Cripps that draft? (Not sure on that)
Like I said, plays one good game a year. Normally against us.
EB's little mate Fisher needs to extract the digit.
I can see yet another minor loss at a time when a win would have worked wonders
This could be one off those “if only” losses
If only we hadn’t started so badly
If only the umpires weren’t killing us
If only Gov hadn’t missed an absolute sitter at the start of the 4th
Need to remember when we get in front to keep going, not take the foot off the gas. Two weeks in a row now.
he'd be the last bloke to miss a sitter normally. Picked a bad moment.
Big one from Jack
We’re some how a chance. And I can’t believe it
Will have to call in hungover tomorrow if we win
Silvagni never should have been dropped.
Has LOB hit a target today?
Jeesus
What else can you say about that shocker.
Went from kicking at goal to put us right in it to sealing the loss.
Nice from Simpson.
Paddy Dow...are you serious????????????????
I must say umpiring is well away from consistent in this match. If only we could sneak a fluke win, we could get off the bottom of the ladder.
2 f#cken points. This will kill me.
Daisy
4 points up. Kill me now.
SMURPH!
YEEEESSS.
Da da da da dah!
Trade Cripps !!! Who needs him ?
Prepare for hangover
No Cripps. No McKay. No Curnow.
You screwing beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at that ladder. Anyone bags Murphy this week better watch out.
Looks like thats the winning formula... :)
Superb effort. Bit of self belief
Yep credit where its due, Murphy was very good today and that goal was very classy...
