The guy is simply not AFL standard.We have a few still on the books that aren't As Kruddler said we have been lucky with injuries which has papered over the cracks.We have too many one paced mids.No forwards.We need Harry to come good, 2 extra A grade mids and a small forward.The Gibbs trade, if it happens, may get us one.Pick 2,3 or 4 should get us another.We should work hard for a clever quick small forward.

The kick should have been lower and should have allowed Pickett to run onto it. It was too loopy and gave the defenders (ie plural) time to make it difficult.I've re watched it a few times and I reckon he could have got there... oh well.like I said, it's easy for me to say from my lounge... but that really killed us off as it went straight down the other end for a goal to them.

Re: Rd 14: Post Game Palliative care: Carlton vs Richmond Reply #65 – June 25, 2017, 08:34:05 pm I think Pickett was hesitant and timed it wrong.Could have been lower as well, but Pickett had to snap that up. Quote Selected

I often have a crack at the umpires. Some times I regret it. Other times I do not. I found today very hard to handle on the umpiring front. We look for consistency and we do not get it. Rules that were enforced to a ridiculous degree 4 rounds ago now may as well not exist. The umpires did not cost us the game: our own play did that. But the way the game was umpired made the game harder to stomach. Quote Selected

Tigers weren't that good, and we played as bad as I've seen us play, and it was only what 4 goals?Jack Reiwoldt is a Goddard. Murph - what's going on there? Timid slow and seemed really out of sorts? Cripps champ.That last bit of play where Gibbs kicked beautifully to Pickett who completely missed it - what was that? Obviously inexperience, we really need and want players that want to be the match winner - too many chipping it around rather than taking it on We have been playing quite well for some weeks now. We've been able to keep our intensity up. But it wasn't there today. The game reminded me more of last year. They wanted it more than we did and we did not hunt them: they hunted us. We had a lot of players down today, yet we managed to keep in the game. Our disposal was ordinary and our play often stagnant. I am not surprised, as we just couldn't generate any run or any easy possessions.The defining play of the day was the lead up to the Gibbs to Pickett pass. We played some of our best footy for the day in that passage of play and we REALLY set up what should have been an easy goal. Pickett failed badly. Enough to question his future. We were all out of position, so Richmond took the ball the length of the field and kicked a goal. 12 point turnaround and our challenge was over. Quote Selected
