Watched the final quarter of GWS and Pies. That knee injury to Howe was sickening to watch to see it go so far one way. I’m not a fan of the Pies but Howe is a quality player.
GWS did well to hold on.

Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaints.
All week I listened to SEN, 3AW and others saying this was Richmond’s week to bounce back and show their class.
We almost kicked a hundy on them in a shortened game. Love it.
-
Another terrible game. Can't even blame injuries.
-
Even Dusty was butchering the ball. Just not there at the moment.

Right there you have 3 of the big favorites pre season, playing horrible , looking like they dont want to be there

Ah. Behinds. I see. You guys kicked a few.
Traditionally it's us who kick too many behinds.
So who do we fire?
Coach or players?
We'll buy Tex Walker for a couple of 2nd rounders
Who?

Looks like Palachook won't let the Tigers into Qld. At least that's another loss averted.

Queensland have put in some pretty intense quarantine rules for Victorian sporting teams.
Going to throw a major spanner in the AFL works.
I reckon they'd be seriously considering packing the whole circus up and going to WA for a month or so.
But not without quarantining when they get to WA...

So, State of the Game comes up again. This time Clarko says it's shit (which i think is a sneaky way to get more free kicks for Hawthorn). Commentators are all in on it. And i have a lot of sympathy.
The biggest take from me is, the AFL need to stop asking coaches their opinions. Coaches want to win, they couldn't give a fuck about how it looks. Modern coaching is the bane of all football codes.
There is something pretty wrong with the game though. It started with Roosy at @Kiwiwomble 's mob. And it's been downhill ever since. Ross Lyon took up the mantle. And then Richmond. It's all risk free football and pressure.
I don't know how to change it, because coaches will just find a way to get control back no matter what.

I'm still learning so forgive my ignorance on Roosy, i can see why we currently avoid risks...they rarely pay off for us!
