Yes. Huge difference between the size and noise of our cheer squad and Richmond’s tonight.

I reckon our area was only 70% full this week and only about 60% at the last home game. There has to be a reason for it

Hmmm, Daniel Bradshaw...one of those players whose eyes lit up when he saw red white and blue...I’ll bet his nine marks were against us!

But I too can’t help feeling something is in the air.

Special mention to Trengove.
I’ve been critical but he was fantastic tonight against an elite player. Gave Lynch an absolute bath and that tackle was brilliant!

Re: WB Game Day V Richmond R7 2019
Funny what happened when Dunks spent more time in the midfield than forward.
Great win by the team although how and if we get over Brisbane next week it will be a better in indication we are back on track.
Richmond are finding out how their depth is and Martin hasn't been as influential.

Re: WB Game Day V Richmond R7 2019
So much to like about that win. Fast hands, quick ball movement, lots of run and spread, lots of bodies around the contest and all shoulders to the wheel. So many good players. Play like that and we can mix it with anyone.

Re: WB Game Day V Richmond R7 2019
A performance like that just makes the GC and Carlton losses sting even more. We bring that effort from last night & we win both games.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Re: WB Game Day V Richmond R7 2019
Agree on Trengove
Thought he monstered Lynch
One thing I noticed was Lynch’s lack of mobility .

Agree on Dunks. It's been obviously to all of us since mid last season that's where he should play. Shame it's taken the coaches so long to put him back in the guts. Hopefully he and Bont can cash in big time now.

Re: WB Game Day V Richmond R7 2019
Overseas so can only read on here and look at stats but the stats indicate an absolute annihilation. The marks stat in particular 134-72! Not often I see that from our side. Also had a few more kicks than handballs which is nice.
And it’s so nice to read a few articles drooling over an extremely promising young key forward who actually plays for us!

There was a part early in the game where a Richmond player was streaming forward and Trengove left Lynch to defend the goals and in the end got an intercepted mark, it was a decisive bit of play. He got caught out a couple of times but he more than did his job.
What did everyone think of Cordy in the ruck? As unconventional as that was, we actually played quite well when he was on the ball.
I think the fact that we moved Cordy into the ruck meant that we planned that Trengove had to stay on Lynch regardless
