Everything I’ve seen has not been great - very fumbly.

Tiggers steadied in that qtr but I think we are still in control and hopefully will go on with it.

Not much method and bombing to Harry just doesn't work. Cripps dominating and Weitering a rock down back...not much has changed there. Kemp been ok but the young Tiger backs led by Vlastuin and Broad have held up well and Charlie is badly missed. Lucas Campo has made a nice start to his career and Ollie has been brave down back and run well.

FB [1] Jack Silvagni [23] Jacob Weitering, [4] Oliver Hollands HB [42] Adam Saad, [11] Mitch McGovern, [2] Lachlan Cowan C [13] Blake Acres, [9] Patrick Cripps, [21] Lucas Camporeale HF [18] Sam Walsh, [17] Brodie Kemp, [8] Lachie Fogarty FF [46] Matthew Cottrell, [10] Harry McKay, [6] Zac Williams Foll [12] Tom De Koning, [5] Adam Cerra, [29] George Hewett Int [15] Sam Docherty, [26] Nick Haynes,[3] Jesse Motlop,[36] Cooper Lord[44] Francis Evans Emeg EMG [33] Lewis Young, [32] Matthew Carroll,[38] Will White
Campo named on the field
Looking at who is NOT on that team tells us a decent story.
There is 11 players unavailable due to injury. Add to that Elijah and his 'mental health' and thats 12.
Players who have AFL experience and who are not picked in the best 23 (with games played) Young (67) Boyd (35) - deemed not fit enough it appears Binns (3) Moir (2)
Thats 107 games of experience on the sidelines
Everyone else is injured and/or yet to debut.
So kudos for Lucas getting a game, he deserved it. Evans gets a gig as a newbie (although he has played 34 games which may surprise some)
But its pretty clear that if you are fit and have played a game, you basically get a spot in the side.
There's over 570 games of experience sitting in the rehab room across 7 players who you'd probably find a spot in the side for half of them if they were fit. Charlie Newman Cincotta Elijah Pittonet Durdin Fantasia
Suddenly i'm less confident about our chances this week as i don't really know who is missing from Richmonds side and if its similar or if they are much fitter.
People will say nobody saw this coming.
Exhibit A your honour.

Eight goals to three since qtr time. Pathetic. Hard to see us winning,, to be honest. They're full of enthusiasm, we look like we haven't a clue.

Watching here, our skills by hand are dead ordinary, such a contrast to the teams in the season opener.
Nothing from our smalls, we cut Owies.
You pay a price not taking AFL opponents seriously.

Same old, same old folks, apply pressure and we shizen our dacks. Panicking kicks, poor delivery to the forward line... and above the shoulders, still can't deal with expectation... psychologically soft. Pack of individuals.

We had soft wins in pre-season and drank the coolaid.
I warned about the known unknowns, this is exactly how it happens, every time.

You keep cheating at CHB and thats what happens. Haynes is not a CHB. Tonight proves that point.
"Teams don't have 2 key forwards so we don't need 2 key backs"
We need 2 so we don't sacrifice Weitering as one. Opposition take weitering out of the game, and our defence is non-existent.

We keep playing TDK solo against Nankervis types, and he keeps getting dragged down, pummelled.
He's a very good footballer, but he can't ruck a season solo, he's not that type of ruck.
Thought TDK rucked ok but Nankervis used his big frame well to help his smaller teammates and was handy around the goals early. The use of Cripps as a ruckman is a concern and shows we havent put a lot of thought into helping preserve the skipper and reduce his work load.
