MATCH REPORT
Match report from afar.. - By Ed from WA
match report from afar..
Well here we are season 2004 begins,on the bench are
Lonie,woey,brodie and tex.
Bucks win the toss,then gets the seasons first free kick,and then after
recieving a handpass from brodie scored the years first goal from 55.
Cloke not to be denied made sure a pie got richmonds first goal of the
year too, but they only get 1pt for that.
Quick as a flash hand ball from josh to didak sees the seasons first
poster scored.
At the 5 minute mark Cloke has had 6 possesions and if we stopped the
season now would shit in the brownlow.
tazza leads and marks.spots willo and josh all alone and misses both
of them OOB.
OOOOOHHHH the chosen one has the fumbles OOB.
seasons first cole T/O.make that the last son,i own a bit of you now.
Burns bombs to the square,willo positions himself at the front of the
pack,gets flattened and 6 tigers appear from nowhere to crumb it.not
a pie in site.
johhno cuts off the rebound and kicks a long pt.
Tigers have the run of the play and kick 3 pts,piecaumba!! they are
worse kicks at goal than we are.Thank the lord for that too.
Cole does a momentous fuck up,then unfucks it and dashes out of defence,passes
to, leon who hits a leading willo on the tit which it immediately bounces
30 mtrs off into a tigers hands and before willo could say whereitgo?it
was thru the middle of the tigers goalposts.
At this moment,knowing what comes next i hoped for the tape to bugger
up,alas no such luck.
then Brodie had the audacity to attack ray hals elbow with his chin,hasnt
MM told him thats just not cricket?
so hall got a well deserved 50 and sunk another nail in our box. 17-8
at the first orange break of the year.
2nd stanza of this story isnt real pretty, apart from goals to johnno
and daks it was all richos mob.
The chosen one actually did a new trick and completely ignored a pass
from his skipper,just watched the tiges take it away..couldnt watch
it all.
43-21 at the half
we come out all fired up,taz marks almost but gets a
free anyway Pt,shockin kick.
Lokan cuts off the kick in and after we go backwards,sideways and across
the field woey has a shot from the boundary line and goals.
Now if its so obvious to richmnod that when bucks gets the ruck tap
that he will just kick fwd without looking,why dont we wake up to it,isnt
it planned that way?
happened 6 times that i saw and richmond took possession each time.
in fact we may as well have just stopped at half fwd and given it to
them,to save time.
it was painful to watch,nothing up fwd was moving except taz,and josh
when he went down there. we scrambled a couple of points and a goal
from woey but its evident that its just not our night.
we are killed all night in the ruck and they have fwds and we dont.
75-36
tazza goals first minute,then daks goals and misses a sitter that may
have helped but i doubt it.
His pass to shaw in the square was a joke,shaw just stood there waiting,does
he think tigers dont move?
in fact the most disappointing thing all night was the way we kicked.
passes that just take too long to get to the target.
didnt bother watching the last bit,we lost by 40 pts.
all is not lost,we can get better,must make a change
or 3, lets just hold our pessimism for a few weeks.
some signs were ok.
votes.

2 wakes
