    I'm not completely au fait with all the AFL terminology being used here, such as running off half back etc, but it was pretty fucken simple to see what GWS did wrong over, and over, and over and over again on Saturday: don't kick the fucking ball to your player in a two on one almost every fucking time you Westie fuck-tards.

    One of the things Richmond does better than most is apply defensive pressure. With the talent at his disposal I think he's happier than most coaches to let them lose shape to apply pressure. It helps that they have the talent to then run out, pass, kick and benefit. The addition of Lynch added some quality tall timber too.

    A lot of other sides are coached to play a certain way and don't cope when plan A doesn't work.

    @antipodean they're really good at their spacing to completely shut down the MCG. It looked like they had 5 extra players on the field.

    Definitely helps when you play about 100 games there per season...

    and its what they do when they get the turnover that really hurts you,

    within a blink of an eye, they are running the other way , pouring straight through the centre corridor in numbers, flicking it around by handball, one commentator described it as the running of the bulls , its great to watch live at the ground.

    @booboo will there be any players left at the Crows by Christmas? What the fuck happened to your club? That 2017 GF just destroyed you!

    Incidentally, why is there a user called booboo_is_a_tool? not that i disagree with the premise, just wondering who you pissed off

    That's hilarious.

    Of all the people that could have had the moniker, @booboo is not one I pictured. I'd have thought my name is a tool would be there before his.

    Just Checking ....... Nope not yet

    It was a username invented to test something.

    I won't say who created it, but will say his name wasn't @Penfold ...

    how boring is the trade period? A bunch of stalled trades for players no one really cares about.

    I am going to need someone to explain to me why Joe Daniher is worth two top 30 picks (as Sydney offered) let alone two top 30 picks and a player (as Essendon want). That seems massive overs.

    I can't wait for the melts when Hawthorn pick up Jon Patton for 2 lollies and an expired maccas Monopoly instant win. He'll get fit and kick 30+ next year. Because Clarko is a genius.

    West Coast v Richmond next year looks like a battle for the ages. Adding Tim Kelly makes the Eagles look very good.

    close, a future 4th rounder. Which is what they got Scully for as well. Do Hawthorn having incriminating pictures of someone at GWS?
