Fire away ..... :-\
-
In: taylor, rance, grimes, contin
-
I know who WP will want out ;D.
After today's "effort" you feel like replacing 18 players :scream
In: Cotch, Rance or McGuane
Out: White (inj?), Cuz (inj?)
If Cuz is fine then Hicks possibly out instead.
We'll need to add more height down back next against St Kilda.
-
only one.. cotch,, make this team learn how to play football and maby get giffs to stand on the field :P keep post up front and i dunno really
Get jack to kick more goals thats what wins us teh games
-
OUT: White, Hicks
IN: Cotchin, Rance
-
OUT- Ben (i fall over way to much for it to be, me losing my footing) Nason
Don't mean to be negative but his last month has been terrible! His biggest asset is his pace but diving on the ball or falling over does him no justice.
I hate to say it but he is scared!
We are going nowhere fast with players like Ben.
Harsh i know, but i just cannot see it.....

BT im with you there.
Had a good first month or 2 but honestly how he is getting a game is beyond me. He is too raw and skinny for my liking and gets pushed off so easy its not funny.
Its been a long season clearly for him so not sure what Dimma is thinking by playing him.
Surely Taylor is a better option.

Have to trade Connors
-
Out: Nason, Connors, Hicks
In: Grimes, Taylor, no 3rd player required dont need one as today we played with less players.
I have seriously had enough of the lack of size in our players. We must be the skinnest team in the AFL
What makes me sick in the guts about today is we run players like Henderson into some form and Waite too FFS.
Icing on the cake is next week when Kosi does a job on us. :banghead :banghead

You don't want Cotchin back in the side?
Rance deserves a spot much more than Grimes does
-
pee moore off and play rance, astbury and the goo as our tall defenders. Moore was simply terrible today. Connors out cotchin in.
-
Moore, McGuane, Thursfield and Conners should all be up for trade IMHO.
-
I've noticed contin mentioned in a couple of coburg reports of late - looking at his size I'm guessing he's a midfielder.
What sort of role do you see him playing at AFL level if he does make it (i.e. is he a runner or is he an inside mid)? And how far away does he look?

who cares just forfeit cause no-one at Coburg is any good & half the Richmond side l could cut very easy :banghead

What a stuffing pea hearted post that is.
How clever of you.... That sort of sounds like "Astbury"..
Absolute pits of society... were you the flog that spat on Frawley?
-
don't take it personally you cum pot :wallywink
It pleases me no end to see a neanderthal such as yourself,outraged by a post of mine. :thumbsup,especially one of such little effort and no true ill-will.
Are you Mrs Assberry or do you just need a root ??

no,we need to play the kids obviously.
I'm drawing attention to the fact he was outclassed by carlton hacks,wasn't accountable and looked johnsonesque at times in the way he got out of hard ball contests.
Moore is frustrating as when he's bad,he's horrid.
McGuane is expendable.
Thursfield -well,i would have rather kept Schulz.

Η νοείται πυρετού είναι πλήρης των όρχεων

In Cotchin, Vickery, Rance, Taylor and Thursfield. Out Hicks, Cousins(inj), White(inj) Browne, Nason(rest)
-
Another one for me is Astbury.
Has done very little to show me he is our future. Does ok sometimes but on a whole just has not got that "something" you see in a young player that says, yes this kid MIGHT be ok.
I know he is a first year tall but sometimes you see that "something" in a kid very early on in there career.
Not me yet.....

when he kicked 3 - wasnt that a decent showing?

Well at least you've answered one of my questions regarding Cotch
Seroulsy I reckon there is probably only 6-8 who deserve a game next week the rest should be sent North Sunshine ;D
INS: Cotchin, Rance, Taylor, Polak (struth if we are gifting games to Post why not ;D), Polo ;D
OUTS: Connors (continues to play selfish selfish footy :banghead :banghead and the club continues to condone it and the media get seduced by the number of kicks he gets :banghead :banghead),
Nason (he needs a rest),
Graham (needs a rest looked disinterested)
Hicks
White (inj)
REALLY LUCKY BLOKES:
Post: gotta get that trade value up somehow so he stays
O'Reilly: struggled with the pace of the game but I like Jimmy
Moore: flaps his arms a lot telling people what to do pit he doesn't follow his own advice
Collins: first game back after injury so he's sort of excused
Jackson: the stats say 81% effieciency, thats because kicks to the wide open spaces of the MCG (read kicking to NO ONE) don't get picked up as being inefficient
-
Connors just has to be offered as trade in trade week.
has no endurance either

WP, Jack
I missed the game yesterday.
Why did the Age , The H-S and the Richmond site all put Conners into the best one or two for Richmond?
'65
-
Because they have no idea '65, or perhaps that is an indictment on how bad they all played. I'm starting to see what WP has been saying about him...and the turnovers? Eff me. For all the poo that get's put on Tuck I have never seen him turn over the ball from kicks when he is not actually being tackled , as often as I saw from Connors yesterday. His disposal was atrocious.

'65
IMHO '65 simply because he had 26 possessions (BTW of which 21 were uncontested).

Isn't the potential there?
Imagine how good he could become.
We were rewarded when we took a chance on Cuz.

:thumbsup
You are not comparing apples with apples
You are comparing an apple (in this case Cuz) with a walnut (Connors)
The ability is not the issue it is continued unwillingness to put the team first.

Got to be honest, i don't remember, it was a while ago!
Do you see something in him i don't? And forget about how old he is for a minute, and just think about your answer on football merrit only.
Don't get me wrong, i don't want him delisted, but just have not seen anything to be happy with yet.
-
we wanna play kids who we want to be in our team for the years to come so that the ycan learn from saint kilda eg connors, dusty, lids, cotch,taylor, hicks ect ect.
Tho it was funny to see lids wip the face of teh blues player .. should he be alowed to play if he behaves like that? and if he wants to be our captain in later year that is no example !! funny tho :p

Thursfield -well,i would have rather kept Schulz.
yeah fair enough, he didn't look good yesterday that's for sure, but would rather get games into these young guys asap to see if they have what it takes. IMO he's shown some good signs this season. Bit slow but good footy brain and reads the game well

polak was rubbish for coburg

sorry BT dont agree with you there. Astbury goes allright and will be fine. Need to hold him.
we have plenty more that need to go before him.

why would anyone need to even bring up this? Only a richmond supporter could complain about astbury
-
i think bt is right in one sense.
astbury has done little but for a first yr tall we should not expect to much.
if we were not such a rabble kids like astbury would spend his first two yrs at coburg learning the caper with just the odd game to give him an idea of whats expected.
i have to say our younger blokes are not the problem and that includes weather or not they prove to be good enough in the long term.
its the plethora of glass half fulls and lack of well rounded footballers who are mature that will see us mired in mediocrity for yrs to come if we do not weed them out.
cuz deledio foley and perhaps newman are the only players over 22 who you would keep for certain and cuz is 32.
we are littered with mature glass half fulls who are supposed to be the leaders at the club. graham jackson king mcguane mcmahon moore morton polak polo simmonds tambling thomson thursfield tuck white bloody hell most of them are regulars and most of them are duds.
and this is just a list of the so called seniors. there is a percentage of players 22 and under who at this stage you could easily place in the same category.

next season our oldest players will be;
Tuck
Newman
Moore
King
Foley [2003]
Thursfield [2004 draft]
Jackson

We had a very inexperienced defence on Saturday with exception of Newman and Moore and it showed. Moore and Newman can't do it alone. THey need good support. Good draft picks and patience is required. Hopefully I am totally wrong but I think it is going to take seasons rather than a season to see drastic improvement in the club.

Jackson: the stats say 81% effieciency, thats because kicks to the wide open spaces of the MCG (read kicking to NO ONE) don't get picked up as being inefficient
Gee that's a bit harsh. Not easy to kick to a teammate when there's no one where they should be.... to receive. ::)
Also it was pretty obvious from about midway through the second quarter that Jacko wasn't able to run at his peak due to some form of injury.

Not harsh just calling it the way I saw it and for mine he was very disappointing on the weekend.
As for no-one being where they should be to receive his errant kicks? Why did he kick to no-one when blokes had spread to the opposite side for him?
Regarding possibly being injured, running wasn't the problem ;D And I think there was a bloke in number 32 who had a pretty good excuse to drop off in the quality of his disposal but he compensated ;D

In: Rance, Cotchin, McGuane, Webberley
Out: White, Nason, King, Hicks
All of a sudden side looks a lot better without King & White in it !!

RICHMOND - In the mix
Trent Cotchin is back in this week after serving his stuff suspension, and Matt White, who injured a calf 10 minutes into the weekend's game, is expected to be okay to play. Will Thursfield kicked a goal at Coburg, so could get a game forward, while another being considered is Troy Taylor - with only two matches left in the season, time is running out to see how he goes.
