What is high impact, off the ball, intentional with the guy out  for the rest of the game worth???

Pickett marks and goals, they get nervous and anything can happen. But he didn't and it didn't!!

Scoreboard flattered us a bit... they just seemed to move the ball too quick for us to set up.

Overall effort was ok, but we really need to be a bit braver with ball movement.

Played the smaller forward line and while Jones played well the idea of moving Castagna to FF worked for them.....I would have played Jones in attack half way through the last quarter....

Looking like it...that marking attempt was worrying , didnt want the contact so he didnt step back.....had a few mates in Boekhorst and Smedts......wasnt happy with Graham initially but he had a go after half time...

He marks and goals we had a sniff... I very disappointed with that "attempt".  He looks flashy out in the open having a run but doesn't like it physical.

Agreed re Smedts, Boakhosrt and Graham.

I think it will go straight to the tribunial... reckon he will get at least 3 weeks, maybe more if judged to be intentional.

The AFL should waive their own rules and award Caracella Coach of The Year. What a difference he's made.

Some young guys just look like they belong , unfortunately SPS doesn't at the moment.

Yep - he hasn't looked like it since his rising star nomination.

We were lucky it wasn't a percentage booster for them.

Yes, they missed some real sitters - could've been 18.11 rather than the other way round.

We kicked 4.8 in the last half too. It was 2.7 at one stage.

Too many of our support act didn't contibute enough today, leaving too much to too few.

Boekhorst, schmedts, pickett, SPS (28 touches combined) all made little impact, with Graham only marginally more. Lose this many posessions through the middle and it is going to be very difficult. Richmond's goal kicking was ordinary so the score flattered us in the end.  48 tackles is also a poor return, espcially for a low scoring game.

Thought we were coached well today, making some changes in the back half to negate rance in the second half, but lacked the execution. Our backline got a bit disorganised, as the richmond small forwards kept moving and defended well without the ball.

Best were cripps, gibbs, kreuzer and docherty. Murphy was out of sorts today, running like a headless chook at times attempting to fill the many gaps. He has been doing this much of the season, doing an extraordinary amount of running. Richmond negated him well today so he was often out of the game, especially in the first half.

Was impressed with charlie curnow today. Took some good marks and moved well over the whole game. He is developing well. Highlight was cripps' mark in the last i think, along with his burst out the middle and brilliant kick to casboult. Champagne football.

Richmond are a good side and do seem to lift against us. But have a few passangers, especially across the middle and it is quite a handicap.

It wasn't poor kicking for goal that cost us the game.
Richmond out muscled and outplayed us, pure and simple.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.
