Edwards was a liability today, waste of a spot in the team, our small forward division is so poor its amazing we have actually compiled winning scores. Have to try Lloyd, can't see :birthday what we have to lose.

i actually thought the big o though beaten had a decent game against the AA ruckman and people want to drop him.

heres a novel idea lets play him as first ruck next week, plonk hampson in a fp drop that uber dud vickery and play griffiths at chf.

fair dinkum it would not be hard to make 10 changes if we had the players in the wings unfortunately we dont.

Grigg for a seagull. The people on Friday night will come hungry from work. Pleny of free scraps to feed on.

Titch- 8  seasons and his impact is minimal and when he does impact more often than not its detrimental. I look at indigenous players in other teams and wish Titch was like them. Possibly the seagull replacing Grigg has a ate to replace Titch.

Thomas will go for a week so Lids will come in.

Would love to see Vickery dropped for Hampson.

Newman for any kid that can play for us.

The Barometer - Round 4
Herald-Sun
April 7, 2014


RICHMOND

ON THE BLOCK:
Look at all those “tests” — the docs might make it hard for Damien Hardwick to swing the axe, as much as he might like to after another disappointing loss. The Tigers say they will have a better idea midweek whether Deledio, Hampson and King will be fit to face the Magpies. Nick Vlastuin should recover from mild concussion although a six-day break might work against him. King is important to Richmond’s structure but he has struggled for form this year, towelled up by Liam Picken on the weekend. And it might be nearly time to make the tough call on warrior Chris Newman, who has struggled to make an impact in any of the three matches this year and looked off the pace against a youthful Dogs side.

ON THE CUSP:
The stand-alone VFL side was beaten by 17 goals in its first outing so there aren’t many knocking on the door. Anthony Miles had his usual truckload of possessions, Brad Helbig, Matt Arnot and Nathan Foley did a bit but that was about it. Knights and McBean both missed the game and Jake Batchelor was reported to round out a forgettable day.

AL PATON’S FORECAST:
Talk of elimination finals in April might seem premature but the Tigers simply must win on Friday night if they are to have any hope of repeating last year’s finals appearance. The next month looks like this: Collingwood, Brisbane, Hawthorn, Geelong. And Richmond hasn’t beaten Collingwood since 2007. A big pre-season win in Wangaratta will inspire some confidence but that seems a long time ago now. Deledio’s run is crucial and a revitalised Jack Riewoldt has to repeat his second-half heroics from Saturday. Trent Cotchin can’t do it all on his own.

Actually I don't think he will drop Vicks so I will change him for the Big O. If Vlastuin  is ok then Mc Doughnut won't come in but we really need to inject pace into this side. I would like to see Helbig have a crack, was he suspended? Batch is too slow but he is hard.

RICHMOND
Vice-captain Brett Deledio will face a fitness test on his injured ankle, with the Tigers desperate to regain him for Friday night's clash against Collingwood. Ruckman Shaun Hampson (knee) and small forward Jake King (corked quad) will also need to prove their fitness ahead of the crucial match. Half-back Nick Vlastuin was substituted with concussion against the Western Bulldogs and will have six days to recover. Pushing up from the VFL team, Matt McDonough impressed in a half before heading to Etihad Stadium as the Tigers' emergency last Saturday. He appears first in line after an impressive pre-season with Nathan Foley and draftee Ben Lennon also on standby.

Post by: big tone on April 08, 2014, 06:55:35 PM
We desperately need some forward pressure and someone that can crumb when the ball hits the ground. Last week the Doggies just walked it out of our forwardline.

Ins- Lloyd, Knights, Lennon (must play him, even if he struggles a bit, need him to get some games under his belt quickly) Lids, Arnott and Hampson.

Outs- King, Edwards, Grigg, Petterd, Conca, Big O

Ellis really lucky, I'm not a fan, never have been but as much as he messes up, he does some good things too. Conca on the other hand needs to do some work in the twos. 
Title: Re: Changes for the Pies Game

I would usually too but he is a long way off at the moment. Houli has been down this year too. Cannot help but think the change of positioning has messed this side up. Newman IMO is still best 22 and has been harsly judged in the first 3 games. Not the most talented but he has a go. Something this club is lacking in!

apologies foolishly  without thinking i named regular players who just are not going to take us forward anymore. im no different to any other poster and look like a doofus at times.

need to add one to the list of outs in vickery how i missed that spud sums up that post.

id be more than happy with the following team. wont happen in a hundred yrs but the 8 i have in the gun deserve to be in the gun no one would be surprised if any one of em got dropped.
 but  for two or three not available  id say it would be close to our best and it would be more than competetive. naming miles is nothing more than wishful thinking on my part.

Miles isn't an option

He is a rookie who hasn't been promoted so cannot play AFL until he is.

there is no spot on our list to enable us to promote him unless we put someone on the LTI list; which clearly the club has no intention of doing. throw in the fact that you have to put a player on LTI for a minimum of 8 weeks, then we don't have anyone who fits the criteria

Personally would love to see him get an opportunity but as it stands right no he isn't an option

Our dilemma lies in development.

Guys across the board are only hitting 70% of ability.

That's why other clubs with less talent smack us.
Their dud guys give 90-100.

That and the psychological weakness that hasn't been successfully addressed since Rudi Webster was at Punt road.

What a stupid decision it was to not put Maric on the LTI and promote Miles

Almost as stupid as giving Foley a three year contract when his achilles was shot and he hadn't played a game for a 12 months and it was more likely than not he would never be close to the same players again. Then you drop him for the finals anyhow ?  I'll never understand all that.
 On another note , had a chat with a not too long retired former tiger player yesterday. The mail I got is that Jake KIng won't play this week. Will be listed as being injured but being out of favour would be closer to the mark.
 We'll see what happens at seletion tonite

Lids on LTIL and bring in Miles, just sounds to me like Lids injury will get worse before it improves, no confidence in the information given out by the club in relation to injuries of late, really hope its not one of these minor, turning into moderate turning into serious turning into season ending injuries.

Hopefully the club has learned that we have to managed Lids' achillies better than we managed Axel's.

+1. Really need to manage Lids. If 2014 is a write off I'd rather that be the case and not at the expense of lids who still has 3-4, possibly 4-5 years in him still. It's amazing he's played 140 straight games. here's hoping they get him absolutely right so he'll plays 100+ straight.

Interesting to see if the weather effects the selection. With the current rain conditions will we run with the three tall fowards and Big O in the ruck or cut one down to bring in a small crumber. If so who, I wouldnt want to cut griff and jack is a given so it would be a tough call. Big O might be usless , Vickery might be too (or both lol). If it was up to me I would be tempted to drop Vickery for this game. Griff V Grundy, might be the way to go too, or is Big O's tap work more important in the conditions ???

Will be interesting to see.
