yep. Ivan Maric was there encouraging him at the break but he must know that he is nothing but really BIG.

it was funny watching his opponent push and shove him today. Wasnt a tiny guy but he was dwarfed by Colina. They are a small side though arent they.

As someone who remembers the old school quarter time breaks things have changed.

I was watching Preston at the break and they go into their groups of six and a coach talks quietly to them and then articulate nice sounding guys are giving their own feedback to the group.

BTW how hot was the female boundary umpire. I suppose I cant say that these days.
Mate I was thinking the same things as you we are alike. Nothing wrong saying someone is attractive. Let’s say it like it was she was hot.

At the Richmond huddle there was a bloke who looked a bit like Peter Filandia doing alot of talking to players.

Does anyone know who that was.
 
We have a serious prospect in Sampson

Reckon a few clubs will be asking him the question.

If the blues are still keen on soldo I’d be letting him go for the right deal to ensure Sampson doesn’t start to look elsewhere.
I’m starting to think with Baeur and Ryan both looking like they could be anything , jack may just hang up the boots

Bauer has done heck all

He’s played one good game against s**t oppo. He’s a long way from looking like being anything IMO
 
Has had a fair few games where the weather and grounds have been a nightmare for a fwd.

I think he will be a very nice player at afl level.
Yeah and he’s been playing a fair bit as the main forward, he’s really only a 3rd tall. Looks better when he’s got Ryan down there permanently.
I reckon he still has a bit of work to do before he plays AFL. Particularly at ground level (below the knees)

Australian rules player Peter Filandia has been suspended for 10 matches after pleading guilty to biting an opponent's testicles during a game last week.

Said it was an accident, maybe it was, I mean would....
 
That was an enjoyable watch...and getting the win was cherry on top!
No screaming commentary...just matter of fact details about both sides players...
Made the AFL day team commentary sound so tired/stale, predictable, boring, biased...you have no idea AFL!
Your strict paranoid control has micro managed any sense of adventure/fun/cutting edge/danger in footy..
Just limping to the finishing line gil...

Terrific post, right on the money
 
What's the go with Austin Johnson? Haven't seen him for a couple of weeks. Are we hiding him for the draft?

Haha. He averages 11.7 disposals and had one good game and in typical bigfooty fashion posters thought he was the second coming and would walk into our best 22. Reality is he is a role player at VFL level who isn't close to being good enough for AFL.
 
Richmond VFL coach Steve Morris provides a summary of how the Tigers’ players performed in Sunday's 82-point win over the Northern Bullants at Preston City Oval.

Riley Collier-Dawkins (30 disposals, 23 contested possessions, 12 clearances, five inside-50s)

"Had a very good game on the weekend with 12 clearances and a huge 23 contested possessions. He was dominant, particularly from centre bounce, he burst clear on a number of occasions and gave our forwards first use."

Jake Aarts (29 disposals, five tackles, one goal)

"Once again, Jake was outstanding for us, he's been in terrific form lately. He worked up and down the ground playing mainly as a forward, but his work-rate and his ability to win contested ball really did stand out."

Thomson Dow (23 disposals, nine clearances, one goal)

"Thomson once again looked dynamic in-and-around stoppage. He won nine clearances including seven from centre bounce. He teamed up with Riley really well and was able to give us midfield ascendancy."

Bigoa Nyuon (22 disposals, nine marks, six rebound-50s)

"The most pleasing aspect of his game was the fact that he started slowly and it didn't affect the remainder of his game, which was outstanding. He took a number of intercept marks and backed himself in the air, which was really pleasing."

Hugo Ralphsmith (21 disposals, three tackles, one goal)

"Played a little bit down back and also on the wings. I thought he had a really good game driving out of our back half and being a really good connector for us with his run and carry. He also hit the scoreboard late in the last quarter."

Samson Ryan (18 disposals, 12 marks, 13 hit-outs, five goals)

"I thought the last game he played was his best game for the club, and he bettered that effort once again. He was outstanding on the weekend, he took three contested marks, hit the scoreboard heavily and his hands were extremely strong. He made the most of his advantage in aerial contests throughout the day."

Sydney Stack (18 disposals, four tackles, three goals)

"He looked switched on from the first bounce and was really engaged. He made his teammates better, which is something we continually challenge Sydney to do, and he hit the scoreboard heavily, kicking three goals himself. But, it was his small acts that pleased me most."

William Martyn (17 disposals, five marks, four rebound-50s)

"He had another solid game, he's been in terrific form this season. He's pretty reliable down back, he gets involved in a lot of our offensive chains, but he's also pretty ruthless in defence and that's what we love about him."

Sam Banks (17 disposals, five marks, one goal)

"He's move to defence over the last couple of weeks and played a little bit of wing on the weekend, but mainly in defence. He's a beautiful ball user, he's getting himself in really good positions and he's starting to play to our system really well which is pleasing to see. He also hit the scoreboard with a beautiful finish from outside 50m.

Rhyan Mansell (15 disposals, three marks, three inside-50s)

"I thought he had a so-so first half, but followed that up with a sensational second half. It was really pleasing to see him bounce back to his absolute best form. He led the way in terms of our attack on the contest and willingness to play to our system, and I think all Richmond supporters enjoy watching the way he plays and goes about it."

Jacob Bauer (12 disposals, eight marks, four inside-50s, four goals)

"In the first half he certainly looked to be our standout forward. He's a real presence up forward and he took four contested marks, highlighting his aerial power. One thing you know about him is that he'll throw absolutely everything at the contest, he's been really important for us."

Ivan Soldo (nine disposals, five marks, 50 hit-outs, two goals)

"We're a much better team with Ivan in it, there's no doubt about it. He's a real presence in the ruck and also up forward. It was another good game from him."

Mate Colina (eight disposals, six hit-outs, two inside-50s)

"Had a really improved game. He provided us with a real contest up forward and I think he's getting better each and every week. If we can tidy up his set-shot goal-kicking, he will certainly increase his game impact. Big steps forward on the weekend."

Judson Clarke (seven disposals, two marks, two inside-50s)

"Played on the wing for the very first time. It was one of those days where our wingers got by-passed in our ball movement for most of the day and didn't have much of an impact. But he ran really good patterns and played his role for the team."

Tom Brown (four disposals, two marks)

"Like Judson, he struggled to get involved offensively on the day. He is new to his wing role and that, coupled with the way the game was played, probably reduced his impact."



 
I think it's safe to say that Tom Brown's form this year has been a big disappointment

Inconsistent more than anything
Had some really big games but others where he has fallen right off
Still seems to be finding his feet in our system
