Although I thought he was Ok (didn't notice him so it means he was Ok  :laugh:) would drop Hunt and bring in another kid, leanign towards Butler just to give him a run and see what he offers

Calls have to be made on these 2nd year kids so we need to see what he offers
agree he's out of contract so let's see if he deserves a new offer for next yr.

i'd like to see no kids dropped for the rest of the year & some more added

You can't burn players though
Let McBean, Castanga, Short play the next few weeks
Rioli ?

Rioli must play the season out. He does so many little things throughout the game that is so important. He just needs to find space and easy ball. Tackling and harassing is first class :clapping
agree, i recall seeing this in Rd 1, there was a chain of Handballs by Carlton in our fwd half & he ran & put preassure on 4 blokes one after the other.. it was something we see Cyril do week in week out & not many others do it.

His defensive intensity is incredible. We haven't had a player with the intent and speed he has for as long as I can remember. Probably affecting his attacking ability because he's so spent by harassing and chasing but it'll only get better as he gets fitter. Keep him in

yer but, we need to test and valuate, for me Rioli, McBeanand Markov to stay in, plus Lennon and Drummond at some stage

The Barometer - Round 17

Herald-Sun
11 July 2016


RICHMOND

ON THE BLOCK: Not the kids. They provided the buzz and even if first-round pick Daniel Rioli was quiet against the Dogs, the next seven weeks are vital for the development born after 1994. Taylor Hunt kept Bontempelli quiet for spurts but was beaten and while Ben Griffiths marked strongly, his field kicking at times was costly.

ON THE CUSP:
Ben Lennon is the priority to get into the side. He’s now had two runs in the VFL after a lengthy layoff and you’d expect him to play against Essendon on Saturday. Best mates and rookie picks Kane Lambert and Adam Marcon did what they’ve done for years — looked too good for the VFL. Marcon had it 35 times while Lambert collected 32 in Saturday’s loss to Footscray. Former Giant Jacob Townsend kicked two goals. Nathan Drummond is another Dimma will want to fast-track back into the AFL after returning from an ACL while Maibor Chol will get a guernsey once his workrate lifts. He excited in the NAB Challenge.

SAM LANDSBERGER’S FORECAST: How quickly perception can change? Dimma promised there was plenty stockpiled in the past two years and the footy world might start agreeing with him. Oleg Markov’s debut was genuinely exciting while Jason Castagna, Jayden Short and Connor Menadue all look like they might be ‘above the line’. Hardwick guaranteed Liam McBean a run of games (bad news for Ty Vickery) but he still looks nervous at times. How good would a bag against the leaky Bombers be for his confidence?

"Adam Marcon did what they’ve done for years — looked too good for the VFL.".... :snidegrin
DIMMA - You will be held ACCOUNTABLE...

“We are really excited about what we have brought in. We have got great depth of players that can take us where we need to go. We are just putting some cream on the top at the moment,” he said.

Shaun Hampson is the No.1 man"

Gotta agree with this.He may not be getting a lot of ball but nearly everything else is fine.Playing afl can not hurt him or his development. Just play as many kids as possible there is no reason for the rest of this year at least not to.
There are three or four other regulars i would cut as well to allow most of the kids to play.

would like to see Drummond and Lennon come in this week
Not for one of the kids though.

In the mix: round 17

Nathan Schmook

RICHMOND

Playing the kids in round 16 produced arguably the most exciting performance of the Tigers' season, and the youth-first approach should continue against Essendon on Saturday.

Don't expect more than one or two changes after such an encouraging team effort.

Ben Lennon has played two games at VFL level in his return from a shoulder injury and could be considered after racking up 23 possessions and four tackles.

Nathan Drummond (20 possessions) will be discussed as an option but may need more time at the lower level in his comeback from a knee reconstruction.

Kane Lambert (32 possessions) responded to being dropped in the best possible way and should be considered, while midfielder Shaun Grigg will need to pass a fitness test after suffering a minor knee injury against Port Adelaide in round 15 and missing one match.

Ty Vickery went goalless in the VFL and would not be expecting a recall.
