No public access I believe
From the RFC web-site
Please note: Richmond’s home game against North Ballarat at the ME Bank Centre on March 15 is unlikely to be available for fans to attend, due to development works being carried out around the oval.

Web stream? And will it be replayed? I'll be on the GC.

King is fit wp

No Lloyd or McBean.
Good to see Dea back, and Williams.

Lloyd was named as an emergency for GC game. A late change?
McBean must be injured?

They always take 1 emergency on interstate trips
King is fit wp
yes; so; point?
And Dimma said yesterday he'd had an interupted pre-season and didn't have enough miles in his legs so he was unlikely to play but was an important player to our side. When he's fit enough for AFL (read match fit) he will back in that side
-
King is fit wp
But he's underdone.
Players run out of gas majorly in the early rounds, no use taking up a guy that isn't ready.
-
Strong team really. A lot of players that could quite easily step into our current AFL team. They will miss McBean though as they seem a little short up forward. Elton will have his work cut out marking or even bringing the ball to ground.

both bathie and barlow can play forward reckon at least one of em if not both will.
structurally should go something like this allowing for rfc listed players to start.
B/ BATCHELOR 188cm - DARROU 190cm - GRIMES 193cm
HB/ MCINTOSH 192cm - BARLOW 195cm - DEA 186cm.
C/ YOUNG - GORDON - WILLIAMS
R/ STEPHENSON 200cm - HELBIG - ARNOT
HF/ O HANLON 189cm - ELTON 197cm - KNIGHTS 184cm
F/ KING 178cm - BATHIE 193cm - A EDWARDS 184cm
INT/ BATSANIS - CONTIN - KEDDELL - GLEESON - SCHIBECI - CONCA
If theres a problem id say its maybe pace. in the main it looks to be a real big bodied side and really experienced .also only one recognised ruckman. i think orren is the one who will have his work cut out. i really wish we had another junior ruckman on our rookie list 20 22 yo. i say another because people will argue mcbean is one. id argue hes going to be more like vickery kpp first.
Missing listed players who should spend plenty of time in the team are miles, mcbean, banfield, lennon, with the last injured .
also davey is not playing and neither is mcqualter.
its a very strong experienced vfl squad and if it doesnt make top 4 it will be a failure imo.

Is Wall injured? Perhaps Barlow is seen as the better option
overall a good looking 22

Where are Miles and Banfield?
They need to get games into their legs.

Rumour is they made the trip North and will play if Dimma thinks we are going into the match too tall.
Happy to pay the fine :lol

The Roosters kicked the last 5 goals before half-time. We were in the game half-way through that 2nd qtr.
-
The team is brand new with a new coach (??)
Give them time to gel.
:thumbsup
-
Failure if we don't make top 4

@RichmondVFL twitter:
Matt Arnot and Chris Knights leading our possessions with 15 each. Az Edwards with three goals and four marks. @BigO_37 has 15 hitouts.
--------------------------------------
Helbig breaks a 9-goal run by the Roosters.
Richmond 6.8-44
Nth Ballarat 16.9-105
McBean not playing btw.

That was roughly the 3/4 time score.
Az Edwards (his 4th) and Batsanis get the first two goals of the last qtr.
-

Yep, it's a practice match as well so the result is meaningless anyway.
Having said that, you'd hope our AFL-listed blokes are playing well individually and putting pressure on the senior spots for the Carlton game or if we cop an injury tonight (touchwood we don't).
-
Az gets his 5th and Luke Conca (Reece's brother) kicks one as well.
Richmond 10.8-68
Nth Ballarat 19.10-124
-
That's half-a-dozen for Az now.
-
@RichmondVFL twitter: That's the game Tiger fans.
Final Score
Richmond 2.4 5.7 6.8 11.8-74
Nth Ballarat 5.4 12.6 16.9 19.13-127
Goals: A.Edwards 6, Elton 2, Helbig, Batsanis, L.Conca.

only a practice match, Need 2 seasons at least to get going
-
Where are Miles and Banfield?

How much time do you need to figure out if we are too tall ::)
-
Depends on the conditions. They don't have to announce the change early. 😊
-
Whether it rains or not, ball still plays wet at night up there
-
Where's Aaron Davey , thought he was signed to play vfl?

Six from Edwards not enough for VFL Tigers

The VFL Tigers went down to North Ballarat in a practice match at the ME Bank Centre today.
A six-goal haul from Aaron Edwards couldn’t get Richmond over the line as the Tigers fell to North Ballarat by 52 points in a practice match at the ME Bank Centre this afternoon.
Blustery conditions affected disposal efficiency as the Tigers struggled to reel in the Roosters, who blew the game apart with four goals on either side of half time.
Edwards, one of 15 AFL-listed players in the Tigers’ side, led hard and marked the ball better than anyone on the ground. The Roosters were unable to contain the forward who took five contested marks for the game.
Edwards chased hard when not in possession and assisted the Tigers first goal, scored by Todd Elton, who kicked two for the match.
In a game predominantly played through the centre of the ground, North Ballarat hurt the Tigers on the fast break. Richmond’s attempts to reduce the deficit were undermined by wayward disposal at times.
Chris Knights was another standout for the home side. He found plenty of the ball in the middle and used it well. He finished with a game-high 25 disposals.
Matt Arnot was also a prolific ball-winner for the Tigers and worked tirelessly all day. He had seven clearances and used his body well, including a crucial tackle in the forward half that created a Richmond goal.
The two midfielders were assisted by a dominant ruck display from Orren Stephenson, who amassed 30 hit-outs, most of which were to the advantage.
AFL-listed players, Kamdyn McIntosh, Brad Helbig, Matt Dea, Dylan Grimes and Jake Batchelor all fought hard but the Roosters found too much space in the Richmond defence.
Ben Darrou started to find the ball in an improved last quarter from the Tigers. He spoiled well and always looked to move the ball forward quickly.
Richmond lifted in the final term with clearance work, ball movement, disposal efficiency, pressure and tackling all improving.
Jake King gathered 17 possessions and combined superbly with Edwards to set up two of his three last quarter goals.
Snap goals from Nathan Batsanis and Luke Conca ensured that the game finished well for the Tigers, despite the result.
RICHMOND: 2.4 5.7 6.7 11.8 (74)
NORTH BALLARAT: 5.4 12.6 17.10 19.12 (126)
GOALS: A. Edwards 6, Elton 2, Young, Batsanis, Conca
BEST: Edwards, Knights, Arnot, King, Stephenson

Fantastic when you see players like Arnott, Knights, King in the bests keeping the heat on our running players in the firsts.
-
Result means nothing
Praccy game
Besides our VFL side is about development not results
If we win great if we don't not a big deal either, main focus is developing players and getting them to play our game style
That's been the motto of all stand alone AFL sides in the VFL.
Premierships along the way ala Geelong is a bonus ;D
