Title: Richmond Vs Melbourme RD5
Post by: WA Tiger on April 16, 2016, 07:41:12 PM
Yeah look.....

If we can stick to our current game plan and play Martin, Jack, Cotchin, Edwards, Rioli, Lambert, Miles, Chaplin, Grigg, Vickery and Lloyd off half back in conjunction with the standard backline players we have a really good chance of defending the 6 goals we kick.

Now they are saying on SEN that Deledio should come back into the side even with his legs bound :lol :lol

They reckon he should just be played in the forward pocket...

We are so similar to the Pies, overrated list and only a couple of genuine stars, Bucks and Hardwick might be good mates in the dole queue. Dees should go in as favourites next week and we will be doing well to beat them considering they are one of our bogey teams of late.

Dees to win, we always cough up games against them. We lose when we should win, or we scrape over the line against them when they are an absolute basket case of a 22. As its no longer the latter, we lose by 45 points. :banghead :banghead

To be fair it was 16 kicks, 3 handballs, 11 marks, 4 tackles 2 inside fifties and 6 rebound fifties.
 Not too shabby an afternoon from a half back flanker.

I'm not a huge fan but he is depth and should come in on performances like that with Grimes still out.

Well Batch can't play tall because he got beaten by Waite and Rance got beaten by Cloke (and even Hogan last year) so I guess we have no talls to go to either of them. We're stuffed

Agree that we don't have good match ups. I was just making the point that Watts plays more that lead up forward rather than a big pack mark like Waite and Cloke. Batch maybe better suited to that style of player.

Match preview: Melbourne v Richmond

AFL.com.au
19 April 2016


SUMMARY
Richmond's season is slipping away, and at 1-3, the Tigers are a long way from where they thought they would be after the first month of football. Seeking a win to get its season back on track, Ivan Maric is set to return to the Richmond side following a lingering back concern. The Demons will be no easy-beats as they proved against Collingwood last week. However, Melbourne has not won back-to-back matches since the middle of 2011 and it again proves as a potential stumbling block. But the return of Bernie Vince from suspension and Jeff Garlett from an ankle complaint, plus an increased belief amongst the team, gives Melbourne momentum heading into Sunday night's game.


Where and When: MCG, Sunday, April 24, 7.10pm AEST

LAST FIVE TIMES

R4, 2015, Melbourne 12.11 (83) d Richmond 6.15 (51) at the MCG
R9, 2014, Melbourne 14.7 (91) d Richmond 9.20 (74) at the MCG
R8, 2013, Richmond 15.16 (106) d Melbourne 11.6 (72) at the MCG
R15, 2012, Richmond 13.23 (101) d Melbourne 11.12 (78) at the MCG
R3, 2012, Richmond 20.13 (133) d Melbourne 11.8 (74) at the MCG

THE SIX POINTS

1. This is the second time in three seasons the Tigers have started a season 1-3. Melbourne will be looking to go 3-2 for the first time since 2011 when it won three of its first six games, including one draw.

2. The Demons are the most accurate team in the AFL, converting 58 goals and 32 behinds to be operating at 59.8 per cent.

3. Melbourne has averaged 95 points per game in 2016, a major increase from the 71 it averaged in 2015.

4. Richmond is ranked last in the AFL for contested possessions (126.5 per game). Melbourne is ranked equal fifth with 147.5 per game.

5. Richmond holds a clear overall advantage against Melbourne, winning 103 games to 81, with two draws.

6. Powerful Melbourne midfielder Clayton Oliver places fourth out of all the competition's first-year players (behind Marcus Adams, Darcy Parish and Jacob Weitering) in the Schick AFL Player Ratings.

IT'S A BIG WEEK FOR …
 Damien Hardwick. The Tigers coach, who recently re-signed until the end of 2018, is under the pump with his team slumping to 13th on the ladder. Richmond was in a similar position this time last year and the microscope will be squarely fixed on Hardwick if his side fails to get over the top of Melbourne.


PREDICTION: Melbourne by 24 points

SIX CLUBS will wear specially designed guernseys this weekend to commemorate Anzac round.

In the Sunday night game at the MCG, Melbourne and Richmond will pay tribute to Frank 'Checker' Hughes, a giant of both clubs who also served Australia in World War I.

....
...The Richmond jumper pays tribute to servicemen and women, past and present. This is the Tigers' first Anzac-themed guernsey and features the Anzac logo, remembrance poppy and RSL 100-year logo on the front and 'Lest we Forget' on the back.

Further don't have a great record against sides coached by Paul Roos. I don't think we have beaten Melbourne since he took over as coach. Melbourne will be fired up and wanting to win two in a row for the first time since 2011. Not at all confident we will come out firing.

A win is wallpapering over cracks, a loss hopefully is the end of Dimma.

Dees, Tigers keen to keep Anzac game flame alive

AFL.com.au
21 April 2016


MELBOURNE and Richmond remain committed to the Anzac Day eve fixture, even though it falls on a Monday night next season.

And Demons chief executive Peter Jackson has revealed plans to make this year's fixture stand apart from the traditional Collingwood-Essendon clash.

The parents of fallen solider Lance Corporal Andrew Jones will light the flame at the MCG on Sunday in what promises to be stirring pre-game ceremony which will focus on the more recent sacrifice of Australia's servicemen and women.

Lance Corporal Jones was killed by a rogue Afghan soldier on a patrol base in May 2011.

His parents David and Jenny will play a key role in Sunday night's commemorations.

"There's been about 73,000 people deployed on operations overseas since 1999, and there's been 42 soldiers that have given their lives for the country since that time as well," Jackson explained to AFL.com.au on Thursday.

"The parents of one of the soldiers will be lighting the flame," he said.

Jackson conceded there had been "a bit of trepidation" at League headquarters about scheduling the Sunday night fixture, despite last year's successful Friday night game between the two clubs.

The MCC said it was predicting a crowd upwards of 50,000 for the match, which begins at 7.10pm, after the lighting of the flame, last post, minute's silence and national anthem.

The torch will again be carried on horseback after being lit from the eternal flame in the forecourt of Melbourne's Shrine of Remembrance.

Regardless of the turnout on Sunday night, Jackson insisted both clubs would lobby the AFL to keep scheduling the Anzac eve fixture.

"I think if we're going to do this, we have to be absolutely genuine. I don't think you can shift it just because it happens to be a Sunday night and you think people may not want to come.

"If you're going to run an event like this and tie it to a particular … historical of significance to the country, you have to be genuine and authentic about it, so if that's the night, that's the night.

"From our point of view the two clubs are definitely committed to it, but the AFL's got to fixture it."

I think melbourne are going to beat us. It will be a meltdown, nothing will happen, no McBean, Castagna, Short. TBH I would rather lose with those 3 inclusions than win without them.

How many kicks will Lids have? my pick is none.

Plenty of handballs though.

Maric is so far behind the pace of the game it's not funny. He has lost it. Morris is the same and Batch is back to his best at spectating. Delivery into the forward line is pathetic and we are playing the game off our half back line again. We look a rabble past the centre with no structure or game plan and we can't win a centre clearance to save our lives. Other than that we are doing really well... :help

Big Melee at qtr time, well that will either fire us up or they will come out and kick 6 in a row.. :lol

You reap what you sow

That non defensive effort to leave 3 blokes free in the F50  has probably cost us the game

That's not the coach that is dumb players

The coach has a definitive say in the drafting and selection of the players

Please out on the field in that last 30 seconds of that quarter that's not the coach that's the players

But hey I understand your need to blame the coach for every single thing happens at the RFC and not apportion any blame of the incompentance of the players

But it's the all the coaches responsibility to breed a culture of sustained success and to breed a smart bunch of footballers that make good decisions.


.....we don't have it. Who's fault is it?
I think it's the whole coaching group that have failed. 
Still waiting for your footy department report card WP.

Last 30 sec of the half who cares

Look at the half as a whole

Rubbish coach
Rubbish list
Rubbish players

If you look at the entire game of football thus far

The last 30 s was not much different to the half, the season or mr hardwick senior coaching career

Yeah but who drafts the players Wp? Especially all these players in the 'Hardwick' mould?

Who grooms and teaches the players? Who's game plan do they implement? Who's training regimens?

Who selects the players?

Post by: WA Tiger on April 24, 2016, 08:39:11 PM
Maric is not ready, particularly for Gawn. Like I said, put Maric in the forward line and make Vickery run around with Gawn.

We just have no confidence, too many passenger, we are fumbling the ball, caught behind the play and we just don't have that flow of play from one end of the ground to the other. When we won the ball out of the centre we looked really good and kicked two goals.

When Cotch turned that ball over it killed our momentum. They will be in the change rooms now questioning themselves and the Dee's will be in their rooms saying we have this in the bag....

I just hope we can get some confidence back in the second half and take the game on and win. That will shut  that Bug prick up!!!! Ellis must lift as I hold little hope for him at the moment. We need to look before we kick the ball as too often they think the pressure is on and it's not.

Cmon Tigers give us something  :gotigers

This is the Demons we are playing, let's face it we are clearly so far behind other top 8 sides it's not funny. Anyone who believes we will be playing finals this year are clearly deluded.

I hate saying this but with the new interchange rule we just can't cut the mustard with this group so major rebuilding is going to have to happen. The longer the RFC deludes itself that we do have the cattle to win a premiership then we are on the train to nowhere at warp speed.

I was talking about the last 30-40 seconds of the qtr which was not a coach mistake but stupidity of the players. That was basic that everyone of them would have learnt in under 12s

That's all I was referring to

Was whacking he culprits in that passage of play, simple as that

Too many dinky kicks & our backline is for ever suffering. It's no wonder Rance snapped but their is no excuse for a gutless hit to a Watts back of the head. he will get 4 weeks for that being a RFC player.

Players who were real bad Houli, Griggs, B.Ellis, C. Ellis, Menadue, Martin, Batchlor, Astbury, Cotchin, TOWNSEND Maric, all the coaching staff & Peggy & Benny & all the others who refuse to give those in the Reserves who deserve a game when playing well. This has created a terrible culture at Tigerland.

It's an issue when a side that is at Melbournes physical stage of development can outrun and win the uncontested possession by over 80.
It's actually a staggering stat and shows the lack of capable, pro active running that generates a spread from a contest or stoppage  that we win.

Well l believe Lennon should be brought into the side next week & stay in the side for the remainder of the season. You can't play guys like Townsend, who comes to the club with no impact to the senior side when you have a guy like Miles busting his guts. l remember Lennon come into the side for his first game & had immediate impact with a beaut goal. Cotch can't even kick a goal dead in front closer. We need impact players & we need them tomorrow, Forget about Deledio saving the club. He is about done.

Dermie, Robbo and Mooney

Overrated players on the list.

Reveal to the public that recruited players such as Grigg, Houli and Chaplin  to get then through the hard times but now we have a very poor list. They are getting old and have met their expiry date but they are not getting moved on by the youth.

We are going backwards and we don't have the youth. Can we get the youth in before Lids, Cotch, Jack and Dusty finish, they don't think so.

They were rapped with Chaplin last night, solid as a key forward. But that means Griff has not come on and he should have.

Patience has been shown but the apprenticeships have not been done.

(caller) Why are the tigers persevering with Morris. Why has he been selected over others when Dea couldn't get a game last year and he is going well for the bombers. They know he wont get more than 7 possies but he is there for his roughness..

Need to bottom out for the next two years and start again but that won't be enough. We have had access to top picks but we have picked Conca and B Ellis has failed. Miles has dropped off because Ellis has dropped off.

Richmond could build quicker that Freo. We can't afford to lose our top line players.

Rance; a week...

Not sure why the bookies and media had us as favourites going into the match :huh3. The game went pretty much as expected and how recent clashes with Melbourne have gone - we get beaten around the contests and get jumped in the first quarter, then we spend 2.5 quarters trying to play catch up footy while gifting goals to the Dees via bad turnovers before being run over in the last 10 mins. Oddly enough our style of play was probably the best we've played in the first 5 rounds  :outtahere but that's only because we didn't go sideways and backwards all night like in the first 4 rounds. The one thing that stands out this year is how slooooooooow we are in terms of leg speed and how opposition sides continually get more numbers to the contest and the fall of the ball.

Work it out, this is weeks of frustration from Rance. This was not just because of this game and that we were losing. This incident was pure frustration coming out of an individual who was clearly frustrated by what has been happening over the past few weeks. Go watch the other games, this has been building in Rance week after week. Hardwick is ultimately to blame because of his poor coaching, poor selections and overall poor game plan that has place the entire backline but mainly Rance under so much pressure week after week!!!

Please...

I get frustrated every week watching the Tigers play but I don't go around clocking people. But perhaps I should and my defence can be it's all Harwick's fault  ::)

You've actually just given the perfect example of what happens in today's society. And that is people stuff up and instead of putting their hand up taking responsibility for their own actions they pass the blame onto some else because it's easier and a monumental cop out

Rance had a brainfade; a massive one and there is no excuse for it. Blaming Hardwick for it is laughable.

Stupid Harfwick is to blame for this.

Huh :huh :huh Please explain

HAHAHAHA FMD. Rance is the one who lost his cool and whacked a guy in the back of the head. No one else. If it was Dimma how come none of the other players whacked anyone? Why isn't Reiwoldt going around punching people or Cotchin or any of the other backman. And don't say it's because he's the best backman and is therefore under more pressure because that's a cop out.
Stop being an apologist and hold the good players to the same standards you'd hold anyone else. Enough of the excuses!

As I thought no idea!!

You have said some seriously delusional stuff but this takes the cake :lol :lol :lol

Mr Right, that's your name, because you are delusional thinking that everything that comes out of your sewerage is correct.

The blame I lay on Hardwick is for the lot.

Alex Rance Apologise for Striking Jack Watts

SUSPENDED Richmond defender Alex Rance has made an emotional apology to Melbourne’s Jack Watts, his teammates and the football public for his “dumb, stupid” act in the Anzac Eve clash with Melbourne.

Rance today accepted his two-match penalty for the elbow to Watts’ head after he had beaten the defender in a marking duel in Sunday night’s match.

Teammate Brett Deledio labelled Rance’s actions as out of character and “a complete brain fade”.

Rance requested to front the media to insist the incident was a one-off that he deeply regrets and doesn’t want to define him in the eyes of the general community.

“It’s certainly something that I don’t want to be remembered for,” Rance said. “It was a really stupid, emotional act, which was completely out of character.”

“I am absolutely remorseful for what I did and very frustrated because I know I have let my teammates down and I don’t want that perception to be made about me.”
Rance said the fact what he did in an act of sheer frustration went against his good morals and his strong Christian faith.

But he pleaded for people to not judge him too harshly for his rash act, saying it will never happen again.

In doing so, he expressed his deep disappointment in himself for the incident, saying it was not acceptable, especially in a time of community anger over one-punch incidents that can prove so much more serious than what happened to Watts on Sunday night.

“I shot Jack (Watts) a text the next day ... it was just a dumb, stupid act, and I hope there is no bad blood between us, and he returned a nice text,” he said.

“It does hurt that people could think that I’m a thug when I’m so against that.

“I have had a few low points in my career but ... I haven’t been this low in a long time.”

Richmond faces Port Adelaide — another club desperate for a win — at the MCG.

Rance will also miss the under-siege Tigers’ Round 7 encounter against Hawthorn.

Rance's apology not only to Watts personally and in public should be deeply applauded. It shows his true character and shows an appreciation of the wrongfulness of his behaviour. Not having Rance against Port and Hawthorn is a massive blow and I fear in both games will lead to us being thrashed.
