Essington vs Richmond - Match Thread


No wind.

Commentary said it's quite windy?
Seriously? They're ■■■■■■■ morons.

FLETCH pings one 10 to us 20 to them.

Fletch fwd or back

Mobile is working well though.... must be about a minute behind though...

I’m sick to death of the opposition camping out in our forwardline. All teams have all numbers sitting in defence with odd key link players up forward.

This is going to be an issue all year. We’re going to continue controlling the game and possession. But going inside 50, is going to be so difficult when the opposition have 15 players sitting in our forward 50 most of the time. Then we all get really frustrated when they score on the counter attack.

Seriously? They're ******* morons.

 

Welsh also said its picking up?

‘Former superstar’ is a bit rich

No scoreboard, no clock, no siren.

Ump arbitrarily stops play a fraction of a second before Joe D marks.

siren sounds worse than at Windy Hill, and that is saying something!

I’ve judged winds for my country, and did so for three hours this morning (boomerang throwing).

They’re ■■■■■■■ morons.

50 metres to Fletch, have a shot. Goal to Fletch.

Prolly didn't need the 50 either  

Just happy Jobe is playing better than the first 2 games.  Good signs for Round 1.

Fletch is back. Made a great tackle on the wing, Griggs gave him fifty metres.

I've judged winds for my country, 

Noonan?

Jobe clearly BoG

 

Too much long bombing into F50 - took to right to the end to start hitting players forward with a pass.

 

Our press is quite good in preventing Tigers breaking out - but when they did they ran the ball out easily due to the amount of space behind our press.

Their goals were too easy, our goal was too hard.

JD just looks so much taller then anyone else

16-6 inside 50's our way.

We won I50 17-7, yet they doubled our score

I haven’t been less excited during pre-season ever.
