Title: Blokes we don't need or more importantly, need to replace...
Post by: (•))(©™ on September 07, 2014, 06:31:48 PM
Newman - as big a Finals specialist as he is, he's a barometer for mediocrity.
In juniors one would relish a one on one with such a dud,

Grigg - Soft, outside, outsider footballer.
Such character goes missing, as in today

Morris -  Tries his guts out but only has 50% skill level

Conca - just an idiot

Newman needs to do the right thing and change his mind.

Grigg can go rack 'em up in the reserves for a year until we can delist him. Nobody would want him.


Morris is a liability and has been for a few years. Let him emulate his old man's career by going to Collingwood and swap him for Goldsack.

Conca should be traded back to WA before they wake up to him. Becoming a Tamblingesque draft blunder.

Shankwards was exposed again today under real pressure - trade while he's worth something. (won't happen, but should)

Houli - see Grigg.

Chaplin, another with no value that we're saddled with -see Houli & Grigg.

Petterd - at best depth defensive medium forward who should never play behind the ball ever -and probably not on it that much either truth be told. I've always defended him but at the end of the day - don't really care either way if he's delisted.

Pretty much the exact thoughts that I had after the game.

Must say upset about the loss,but in a way it was good reality check for the club how far off we are from the top sides and need to improve and address certain issues.

What's the definition of insanity? Doing the same things over and over and expecting different results. The Tigers got off to a bad start with two crucial blunders yesterday. W

As I was saying before it cut me off. We made two crucial blunders:
Winning the toss and kicking against the wind :booboo
Playing Grigg as a tagger on Boak :banghead. I mean puh-lease!
Just 10 minutes of Boak being allegedly manned up by that soft tosser in place of a hard tag, and it was literally game over.
Seriously, Grigg couldn't tag an old pair of Levis hanging on a dead man's Hills hoist. Geez, I hope we wake up and de-list that useless tosser, and send Petterd and, Hampson packing with him as well.

Mark Robinson's view:

3. The future of some.
Finals uncover cracks and cracks become players. Hardwick will allow youth to feed off the experience, but he will have some concerns for Grigg (20 disposals, five contested), Foley (11 disposals), Newman (14 disposals), and Edwards just 11 disposals. He’s had a solid back end Edwards, but failed yesterday. Hardwick’s problem is deciding who to put a line through after yesterday. Am worried for Grigg and Foley to be honest.

Post by: WA Tiger on September 08, 2014, 08:36:17 PM
 Should not of re-signed Edwards or Newman, should Have Edwards, Grigg and Foley on the trade table... :banghead

As much as I like Foley, unfortunately injuries have curtailed what could of been.

Edwards at least would appeal to other clubs.

Trade Vickery to the Dogs or St.Kilda for picks. Throw in another half glass empty list clogger(s) that will get them competitive without improving them long term and we may get this over the line.

Totally Agree

Grigg,,,DELIST...GONE

Houli... DELIST/TRADE...GONE

Vickery...TRADE...GONE

Thomas...DELIST...GONE

Newman...Needs to RETIRE...Gone

Petterd...DELIST...GONE

Hampson...TRADE...GONE

Chaplin...DELIST...GONE

Conca...TRADE...GONE

All these players do not fit the right mould. No real skill sets, slow , unco-ordinated - they need to be moved on...

We need to be brutal to be better and start recruiting hard nuts. You wanna play for Richmond you have to start playing like a hardnut with the skill set to be able to dance around opposition players.

The last game doesn't matter so much

Over the course of the last couple years, for mine, houli is too squib like for the back line

Not defending Grigg coz I'd get rid of him too but it was Vlaustin who started on Boak. Grigg went to him once Boak had seen off Vlaustin. Made no difference.
 As for those ragging out Matt Thomas. I was wishing very early on in the game that he was playing. Port sure as hell wouldn't have waltzed the ball out the centre like they did if he was in there.

He would've got the ball going in our direction more than it did on Sunday. Probably wouldn't have mattered much though since our forward line was completely disfunctional. Some of that was a result of poor coaching though.
 I think we only had one or two less inside 50s in that first quarter. Hard to believe I know but it's true.

Just about every one of our inside 50 went straight to their spare man who just loaded up the slingshot and let fly

People thinking Thomarse would've made a difference when two of the things that killed us were lack of pace and poor disposal. Not to mention the fact we were actually killing them in the clearances to start with, but giving it straight back. Yep Thomarse would've solved that problem. Funny stuff.
