Re: 2018 Rd 20: Post Game Calm & Civilized Discussion: Carlton vs GWS
Reply #124 –
I walked away in awe of GWS yesterday. The running power and structured ball movement was breath taking at times.
Its a real shame they don't play in front of a good crowd every week. I really hope they win it.
It was eerily quiet so you could hear the players yelling and umpires clearly most of the afternoon.
My 7 year old went home and re watched the Gold Coast replay to make him feel better.
I have no answers and wasnt aware of the 16 GWS players only on the ground but it didnt matter because our players just didnt man up.
Unfortunately our Captain is normally the number one culprit so at the very least a change in leadership is paramount.
We played like everyone just wants the season to end.
Yes, GWS was too big, too fast, too strong and too well drilled. I was concerned at the start of the game when Murphy lined up on Lobb ?
I don’t think I realised just how good GWS is, and how good they could become. Richmond aren’t quite the premiership favourites I thought.
