pies v richmond

Post by Ed from WA »

Thanks to channel 9 in perth i didnt bother watching the game.
I cant wait 4 hrs to see a game so i listened on the ABC radio to the match instead.
I taped it on fox overnight but cant bring myself to watch it.

From what the commentators said it appeared that our fwd entry hasnt changed much.

We are addicted to boundary line chalk.

Roccas not there so they dont think anyone else can take a mark?

Turnovers aplenty,shocking misses in front of goal,soft tackling,poor skills.

I may not watch any friday games this year so thats nine times i will have to just listen to the game on radio.
and its a bit hard to do a report on a game from that.

hope next weeks a bit better.

match report from afar..

Well here we are season 2004 begins,on the bench are Lonie,woey,brodie and tex.
Bucks win the toss,then gets the seasons first free kick,and then after recieving a handpass from brodie scored the years first goal from 55.
Cloke not to be denied made sure a pie got richmonds first goal of the year too,but they only get 1pt for that.
Quick as a flash hand ball from josh to didak sees the seasons first poster scored.
At the 5 minute mark Cloke has had 6 possesions and if we stopped the season now would shit in the brownlow.
tazza leads and marks.spots willo and josh all alone and misses both of them OOB.
OOOOOHHHH the chosen one has the fumbles OOB.
seasons first cole T/O.make that the last son,i own a bit of you now.
Burns bombs to the square,willo positions himself at the front of the pack,gets flattened and 6 tigers appear from nowhere to crumb it.not a pie in site.
johhno cuts off the rebound and kicks a long pt.
Tigers have the run of the play and kick 3 pts,piecaumba!! they are worse kicks at goal than we are.Thank the lord for that too.
Cole does a momentous **** up,then **** it and dashes out of defence,passes to, leon who hits a leading willo on the tit which it immediately bounces 30 mtrs off into a tigers hands and before willo could say whereitgo?it was thru the middle of the tigers goalposts.
At this moment,knowing what comes next i hoped for the tape to bugger up,alas no such luck.
then Brodie had the audacity to attack ray hals elbow with his chin,hasnt MM told him thats just not cricket?
so hall got a well deserved 50 and sunk another nail in our box. 17-8 at the first orange break of the year.
2nd stanza of this story isnt real pretty, apart from goals to johnno and daks it was all richos mob.
The chosen one actually did a new trick and completely ignored a pass from his skipper,just watched the tiges take it away..couldnt watch it all.
43-21 at the half

we come out all fired up,taz marks almost but gets a free anyway Pt,shockin kick.
Lokan cuts off the kick in and after we go backwards,sideways and across the field woey has a shot from the boundary line and goals.
Now if its so obvious to richmnod that when bucks gets the ruck tap that he will just kick fwd without looking,why dont we wake up to it,isnt it planned that way?
happened 6 times that i saw and richmond took possession each time. in fact we may as well have just stopped at half fwd and given it to them,to save time.
it was painful to watch,nothing up fwd was moving except taz,and josh when he went down there. we scrambled a couple of points and a goal from woey but its evident that its just not our night.
we are killed all night in the ruck and they have fwds and we dont.
75-36
tazza goals first minute,then daks goals and misses a sitter that may have helped but i doubt it.
His pass to shaw in the square was a joke,shaw just stood there waiting,does he think tigers dont move?
in fact the most disappointing thing all night was the way we kicked.
passes that just take too long to get to the target.
didnt bother watching the last bit,we lost by 40 pts.

all is not lost,we can get better,must make a change or 3, lets just hold our pessimism for a few weeks.
some signs were ok.

votes.
2 bucks
2 wakes
2 woey
2 didak
2 lika
