Batchelor should play every week and never be replaced by Petterd or Dea. They are both poop

:yep
;D

Petard is a better footballer than dea and bathchelor that's why he played finals and they didn't

No he's not. He played because Dimma played favourites. Batch had a few bad games and was dropped for the rest of the season
-
I love his up and under passes
-
When he kicks I sometimes think Billy slater or nick Farr jones will bob up and take the grab
-
Well done Ricky, I am sure with an uninterrupted preseason you will play your best football to date. :clapping

What about big Orren?
No word on delisting or retirement or elevation?
What does that mean?

Neither Batch or Dea can go up forward and provide an option. That's why he played and they didn't, its not playing favourites at all, even though his kicking is lousy he is a better footballer, he is just as tough, he can take a mark, run better than them and he can also average a goal a game, the others don't
We can continue on with this "I hate petard line" but the facts are outlined above.

Ty, played better than most out there in the elim final
17 possies at 80% + eff
1 goal
10 score assists, more than anyone else on the ground
Ohh yea he had a shocker ::)
-
next to Grigg and edwards he is a A grade footballer
He shouldnt be the last to get pushed out that's for sure.
-
He won't be , yeah I would have him ahead of those two, much more dependable
-

Been confirmed on the RFC website and posted on here he is staying on as a rookie
-

haha classic :clapping :lol :lol :lol

With Derick being delisted I would think orren is required
If orren is got rid of too, the ruck stocks are very bare

Maybe so but I think he has less potential.
Similar to mcgaube being better than Elton or Griffiths
Lonergan better than helbig
Hardwick short term vision.

Ricky is not overly tough
While Dea is a wrecking ball from from Satan himself

-
Ricky Petterd as tough as Matt Dea. I have heard it all now. The only players on the list who have the same amount of guts as Dea are Steve Morris & Alex Rance. Maybe Chaplin.
:lol

I love his up and under passes
beautiful soft landing 9 irons into the green

Actually he doesnt hit greens that often :whistle

he's in the bunker with happy gilmore.

Then why not delist them if they are that deficient.
i reckon people have it wrong anyway. for me mcintosh is the one we need to step up coming off hb i really want to see us put games into this kid.
dea is better skilled than petterd and does need to take the next step. if he can take that step id be playing him in front of petterd every day of the week.
i dont see the need to keep petterd certainly not as a defender we have numerous options down there. mcintosh, dea, grimes, vlastuin morris, houli, ellis, conca and deledio why play the unskilled petterd down there at all.
id keep him as a rookie for one more yr and that would be as a forward we have just edwards ohanlon and possibly knights who are medium sized forwards.

We have Hampson now so the Big O gets to play 3rd ruck (or 4th if McBean comes along as many people think he will) all season in the VFL unless we get an injury is my guess.
-
injury will seemingly require Mcbean and Griffiths to play ruck at either senior or reserve level
Maric, Hampson, Orren seems at least one ruck short. I would surprised if we dont draft another Derickx type, mature age ruckman as a late pick or rookie.

Surely you can't be serious Blaise. Worst disposal on our list by a mile.

What games you been watching? Great kick and tough as a brickshytehouse.

His disposal efficiency is above league average at near 80%, what do u base your claims on or are u making it up as you go ::)

stats mean fa
a kick from one back pocket to the other does not make up for his horrid tornado punts

Yeah of course,James magner was actually a very efficient kick, his disposal effic % was misleading ::)
-
Fyfe and Dangerfield around 60% consistent
They are jets :weights

Petterd lacks composure and is a mediocre kick at best. Batchelor and Dea are better in both departments and would easily do the same job in defence but with better rebound. Constantly rushing Petterd back from injury to go straight into the side was very annoying to watch. Was bad enough he played games when he was fit while Batchelor and Dea played at Coburg. Petterd doesn't even stand out at Coburg. There's only 3 or 4 players who would come straight in after a 3 week injury. Dimma treats him like one of these players rather than the 35th best player at the club which he is

100% agree with all of this post :thumbsup
-
yep spot on mad one
-
Hard to stand out a Coburg when you aren't playing there ;D
Regarding Batchelor I would think it was pretty clear after reading Tim Clarke's comment the other week about Batch (the "In Focus" articles) why he wasn't getting games at AFL level. And if that isn't clear enough get a copy of the N0rt game from this season and it will shine like a beacon ;D
-

They will delisted if they dont overtake him in 2014, both of them
Pettard isnt good enough, but Batch and Dea havent overtaken him, and in Batchs case in particular he wont.
All three will probably be off the list at the end of next year.
-
There is no way they will delist Petterd, the coaches love him for some reason. mt is spot on, was strange to see how desperate they were to play him, rushing him in on the back of a badly interrupted preseason and throughout the season even when he was clearly nqr physically
-
people need to go back and re-read the coaches comments on Dea this year
consistently getting 25+ touches while shutting down his direct player (Morris-like) and providing forward run
Also - mattydea has a basketball background and was always a project player? Wasn't miller hiding behind trees vscoutig him? Should be granted time to come good.

Yeah I saw Greg swinging from a tree with a pair of binoculars in hand at a game of basketball once

It's official.
Pick 93. Richmond - Ricky Petterd (rookie elevation)

totally appalled at this decision should have kept him on the rookie list and demanded he improve some pretty shoddy areas of his game if he wishes promotion.
has cost us a chance to draft another kid at pick 50.
-
I think he should have a go on the wing
-
If we overlooked the likes of Byrne-Jones and picked the likes of Gordon & Lloyd instead because we intend to persist with playing Petterd in defence and regard him as part of our backline depth then that's just as laughable as it is ludicrous.
Belongs forward of the ball, always has and always will.
-
if hes going to play it cant be in the backline :banghead

That doesn't even make sense. We took Gordon over Byrne-Jones because we rated him higher.
-
Why would it be hard to imagine or understand that we might (remember I said IF) have taken Gordon over Byrne-Jones as a result of where we saw our needs based on where we intended to play Petterd?
We regard Petterd as an HBF - (which we stuffing well shouldn't because he isn't one) we don't pick another HBF in Byrne-Jones as we think Petterd has the position covered and consitutes enough depth in the area, so instead we take a forward in Gordon.
We regard Petterd as a forward(/mid) (like we stuffing well should because he is one) - we take Byrne-Jones instead of Gordon.
Not that hard to follow. Kind of thing happens all the time in the draft. Called "list management". If it is indeed what occured then it's poor list management IMO.

be careful sonny im watching. ;D
look it hard to understand that im happy we took two state league players. im actually over the moon we have tried this route. but bloody hell where we take em is important. its where we took em that im critical of. i have little doubt the two lads we took would have been there in the rookie draft.
yes im also critical that we promoted petterd. there should have been absolutely no guarantees that he would be promoted. keep him as a rookie and bloody hell we have been able to target just one other 18 yr old instead of going with just the one we took.
bloody hell how important was it to promote petterd. not very imo. conca, vlastuin, deledio, ellis mcintosh grimes dea, batchelor, houli, morris, newman. plus newbie lennon could and should probably start his career of hb arnot helbig could be tried back there bloody hell how many options do we want. yet we promote one of the worst skilled players on our list and insist on playing him back its laughable.
promoting this hack has literally cost us the chance of useing pick 50 on a kid. and please dont give me the absolute pee weak excuses of there was no good kids to take or give a chance to at pick 50 ffs.

His dad is a Melbourne supporter. Assume Ricky is too. Dad used to drink with him on the Goldy.

his old man wayne pedro petterd was a damn fine player for the hobart tigers when the tfl was still pretty strong. so theres a tiger link there albeit flimsy.

I think Pettard is ok for depth. i dont love him but i dont bemoan him like others here. I actually see your point though.
I was just giving you some stick because you said 'no complaints from me' in one thread and then proceeded to complain your t@s off in others.

Glad to see a few are coming around, he s had a bloody decent season and fwiw will finish inside our top. 10 b and f . He has a real dip , can take a grab and takes them on...and finds the pill. Has genuinely earnt his spot in the side this year :cheers

I'll say this much in a bleak season at least when Pettard has played he has been one of the few that can at least walk off the ground with his head held high. Gives his all but like many on the list has limitations.
Was crucial in the last quarter against Carlton earlier in the year and kicked an important goal last week and a few today.
At this stage of the list's evolution he has a role.
-
That's what I've been saying for a while :thumbsup
-
He has a crack but he is just not at AFL level as a player.
As the French say Le Jake King.

Reckon Ricky goes ok
His knock on to Gordon who goaled was a gem last night
-
Yeah. Made up for some seriously bad mess ups.
Kick across the defensive arc to Grigg and Newman went out of bounds.
3rd or 4th QTR basic kick to top of the F50 to I think Griffiths went straight over his head.
Thought he was a total panic merchant all night.

He is certainly a hard act to follow sometimes. last night was not one of his smartest games. 4/10

last several weeks he has been very good. I like to be fair he has certainly improved and deserves his place in the side.
-
No from me.
-
He has a crack does Petterd. Have to admit he isn't a player that should be on a list who is playing finals. Need to upgrade him. But going ok.
-
Maybe put him as the sub
Not as dynamic as Gordon
Not as silky as Shane Edwards
Doesn't defend as well as Morris Bchelor
Doesn't have the run of houli
Nor the upside of Lennon
Of foleys inside game
Even Lloyd probably offers more around goals
Etc etc
Still not sure where he fits in. Don't like him in the backline.
Knights going down helps him. He will be hoping we target kPp in the up comming national draft IMO
