Same old same old. Kicking, turnovers and crowded forward line when the ball could be kicked around the 50 metre line to better position a player to shoot for goal.
Other teams just flood us ad we don't score then.
Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.
You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency
Well Richmond seemed to be dominating the game over the last 5-10 minutes. We don't seem to be able to correct defence after turnovers that arise from out I50's.
Richo. They need some God Like message again. Wasted effort late in 1st quarter hurts now.

We are getting smashed at the clearances. We need mids mids and more mids in the draft or trade. Richmond are hardly a top four midfield but are just smashing us.

21 to 13 in our favour - hate to see the stats when we are smashing someone in the clearances - look elsewhere for the issues.

Exactly. Jack and Armo nee some help. Dunstan lacks pace and there isn't much else.
