Isn?t Smith out of touch. He hasn?t fired since his time off last year

he?s so frustrating to watch. He?s had a few nearly awesome moments that end up brain fades. A weird tackle on a Richmond forward who didn?t have the ball followed by a dusty goal from the loose ball behind him. He also seems to be holding onto it too long and making sub par plays or turnovers.

I really don't know what else to say about this type of performance other than its emblematic of everything that has cost us in big moments in critical games, repeatedly.

We really need West in the side today. Why does he continue to get overlooked. Crozier looks slow. I wouldn’t mind swapping him with Williams on the wing. He is a good kick but I think Williams is better than Crozier down back. Williams struggling on the wing so we have nothing to lose

Comon dogs we can win this still. C

West was crap today in condition that should have suited him I don't know if he would help.

Bevo was to slow to get English back on the ground Lobb in the run close gave ip 3 goals snd all the momentum

Bevo doesn't control rotations.

Agree. West was ordinary in the VFL. No pace. He ain?t the answer to the problems exposed on those last 10 minutes.

Genuine question; how are they decided? Literally via a stop watch or time on the clock?

Have our great players ever done that?

Hawkins was clutch.

JJ's decision not to follow Bolton to the front of the pack with any level of intensity wins effort of the day for me thus far. Game defining.

Bolton has made players better than JJ look stupid. He is a freak when he is on.

that’s where I get to too. It’s like… what solutions exist? We’ve wargamed everything on this forum, very few potential solutions get a run and none of them work. I will keep watching them play, but i can’t even get agitated at something that feels as irritatingly likely as a red light in traffic or the 5:25 all stops Sunbury suddenly becoming an express as it whizzes past middle Footscray with me on it.

How do we turn this around? Or can we even turn it around? Need to win clearances and control the tempo. Unfortunately we rely on pressure and turnovers. If this doesn’t happen we are stuffed. Our ball movement is too slow and our delivery into the forward line is crap.

Re: WB Game Day V Richmond R4 2023 Saturday April 8 4:35pm, MCG

We get the midfield back on our terms, we are still right in this.
Doesn't feel like it due to the manner of the turn around however we are a big chance.

Rain might help too.

Here lies another problem. We have no one else. This is it. I can't comprehend how alarm bells aren't ringing. This list is bog average and it's going to take a few drafts with high picks to steady it. We are a long way off it.

None of our top line players are leadership material and I think that reflects on the field.
