    Re: Round 4 Discussion

    Richmond have been papering over the cracks with their excellent midfield for a while.

      Jones kicking like Jones has always kicked is going to drive Blues fans mad!

        Re: Round 4 Discussion

        Both Richmond and Carlton are showing the folly of trying to build with fringe players from other teams.

        Grigg and Houli are both not the standard to take teams forward and Carlton have the same issue with taking players like Jones.

          And Tutt for 3 years, was it? That's just crazy.

            Watched the game after a late one ( well midnight's a late one for some of us
            Melbourne took our game book in that they made the likes of Houli Grigg and a few others defend.
            Richmond like playing an attacking free flowing game style that never wins finals,and when teams get their hands dirty, they get beat up.
            Roos taught them how to defend last year, and copped a crap load of Critisism for a boring game style, and now they're beginning to bring other elements to their game .
            Jesse Hogan and Tom Boyd are two different types of key forwards, as Hogan's a bash and crash forward that don't play past 30 .
            We got our obligatory comparison last night

              The Suns are once again disappointing. GWS really have their measure.

                Gold Coast are totally dysfunctional, they're comfortably the worst team in the AFL at the moment. They don't defend, don't want to win the hard ball, and just all run forward of the play waiting for someone to win it for them.

                Hard to believe this time last year this same team was a potential top 4 team. They're getting a lesson from an ordinary GWS.

                  The Suns have spent most of the game standing watching the GWS boys run past them. Bring the mouth guard to training this week on the Gold Coast I'd say.

                          Now he looks like he wants to come on. Looking at it, he should not risk it.

                              What a difference in the work rate and ball hunting of The two newbies .
                              I won't comment on the recruiting of both teams as results speak for themselves
