Would love to see Knights or Corey Ellis come in especially as Titch appears gone for some time. We need a bit of class to replace him and Ellis especially is a smooth mover.

Our depth will be severely tested now. That's why I don't see us making many changes despite the cries from supporters about the usual few still getting games. From a leg speed perspective, losing Titch is a big loss so don't be surprised if Gordon keeps his spot as a result. We certainly won't make six changes as that's too many in one go and will just destabilise the side.

In: Maric, Knights (if he gets through tomorrow)

Out: Vickery (susp.), Edwards (leg)


Up to McBean, McDonough, Lennon, Menadue, Astbury tomorrow to force other changes. Rightly or wrongly, Dimma and the match committee are harder on the young cubs than senior players when it comes to selection in the seniors.

That's what worries me too, the speed of the Saints, maybe Menadue, Lennon, Arnot and Mcbean..But we cant keep Newman, Morris and Gordon in, the side becomes too slow.

Gordon had a bad night but think he was involved enough due to his workrate and run...just stuffed up everything else on the night...usually a bit better than that..i'd keep him.

newman and morris should both be dropped...what...6 and 3 disposals for the whole game...whereas lambert comes on as the sub and gets 11 playing the same role for 1 and a half quaters...

if we had to only drop one, would be newman....can't get ball, slow, can't pressure.....at least morris does have the speed to put on pressure and chase...will be valuable against the speedy saints

If hampson can repeat last night, or even improve on it it would give a much needed easing of Marics workload.

Etihad is a fast dry track. Hard to see Thomas coming in for that reason.

Out: Vickery (susp.), Edwards (leg), Newy or Morris.


Not that I agree with it but I've just got a feeling Gordon will stay in purely for his foot-speed at Etihad with Titch out. The same reason could save Morris unless Dimma's love of Newy pushes Morris out.

I have a feeling that Astbury will get a call up and he will be played as a utility, maybe on the wing..He may even replace McIntosh.

But Lennon and McDonough should replace Morris and Edwards. With Griff (if fit) otherwise Astbury replacing Newman and McIntosh, but that wont happen.

I wouldn't call it playing as ulitlity ... not sure why Clarke's been using that term to describe him because they don't mean it as it used to be defined back in the day

Clarke is using it now to describe his ability to play forward or back

There is no way you could play him on the wing, forget his fitness levels and his tank he simply far too slow to play on the wing. It owuld be akin to putting Maric or Chaplin on the wing - seriously  :huh3

The Barometer - Round 16

July 13, 2015


RICHMOND

ON THE BLOCK:
A hairline fracture to Shane Edwards, who would be top-three in the Tigers’ best-and-fairest, is a huge blow, but it could have been a lot worse. Plenty of quiet players in Friday’s scrappy win, including Nathan Gordon and Chris Newman. Kane Lambert gave Richmond a spark after being subbed on and should be safe while Kamdyn McIntosh played his best game in a month. Steve Morris had just three disposals in his return but completely shut down Chris Yarran — is there a similar match-up for him this week? Ty Vickery could be in strife if the MRP says he’s responsible for his head clash with Michael Jamison.

ON THE CUSP: Ivan Maric is available after serving his one-match suspension. A second win in a row in the VFL, with David Astbury and Liam McBean kicking two goals each in a last-quarter surge. Potential Edwards replacements Ben Lennon (25 disposals) and Matt McDonough (23) kept their names in the mix. Or could the Tigers roll the dice on Chris Knights after one-and-a-half VFL games? And don’t discount forgotten Port Adelaide hard nut Matt Thomas who has been upgraded from the rookie list and thrived in the tough conditions (including hail) with 27 disposals, nine clearances and 11 tackles.

AL PATON’S FORECAST: A tough week for selectors who need to replace Edwards and figure out the big man mix. Maric is back but Shaun Hampson was pretty good against the Blues — could he stay as a third tall forward? Damien Hardwick is happy the Tigers keep winning but he’ll want to iron out some kinks in Richmond’s game against St Kilda on Sunday before entering a tougher phase of the fixture. One player looking for a lift is Dustin Martin who has had a quiet month — Hardwick revealed on the weekend he didn’t train at all last week. Could a mid-season break be on the cards?

Sorry WAT now you are grasping at straws and pretty poor ones at that

There is no way in hell you can compare Richo's aerobic capacity (read tank) to Astbury's

Richo actually had pace and a massive tank.

Astbury doesn't have a massive tank and is SLOW and I mean really slow, not just by foot but also in the decision making stakes.

Play him back or play forward but he cannot be played on the wing. Do that and the opposition will play straight through that wing

If you are going to stay slow, then Thomas for Newman
Anyone but Gordan, I honestly have not clicked with him at all. Slow decision maker, tries too much.
At least Morris chases and puts pressure.

If we lose this game its because of pace and how much time we give these blokes with the ball.

RICHMOND

Ruckman Ivan Maric returns this week from a one-match suspension, leaving the Tigers with a decision to make on Shaun Hampson, who impressed in his first game for the season against the Blues on Friday night. Hampson's fate will likely depend on Ben Griffith's availability, with the key forward facing a fitness test on his injured shoulder later this week. If Griffiths is unavailable, and with Ty Vickery suspended, Hampson could need to play as a tall forward, even though it is not his strength. After booting two goals in the VFL, young tall Liam McBean could also get a call-up to bolster the forward line, while defender David Astbury has been floated as an option in attack. If the Tigers opt for a running replacement for Shane Edwards (leg), then Ben Lennon and Matt McDonough have VFL form behind them. Corey Ellis (hip) and Reece Conca (hamstring) return from injuries this week, but could be required to work back through the VFL for at least one week.

Post by: one-eyed on July 16, 2015, 02:15:26 PM
Ruckman Ivan Maric will return and Hardwick said Shaun Hampson will likely stay in the side after a strong performance against Carlton.

But things aren’t so straightforward in attack.

“Both (Vickery and Edwards) have been very good contributors over the last month,” Hardwick said.

“We’ve got a number of players who are putting up their hands ... Ivan (Maric) will obviously come back in.

“We’ve got some selection dilemmas ahead but we’ve certainly got some players at VFL level who are playing well enough and kicking goals, so it’s going to be a good selection committee this afternoon.”

Yep, pretty obvious that the 200 odd years of experience at the highest level between Dimma and our other coaches , that is a foreign concept to them.

Who mentioned the other coaches? I was talking about one. Do you agree playing two lumbering ruckmen against a quick young side at Etihad is a smart tactic?

Love the NEGATIVENESS!!
Anyway, how can two players get 3 votes?
lol so if Thomas doesn't play steven 3 votes but if he does armitage 3 votes as well? lol
We have beaten quality sides in Swans and Freo, and beaten sides like GWS and Carlton as of late, and you guys are still complaining about something lol.
Be happy, I am, when have we seen anything like this in the past 10 years?

Maybe our height and strength will be too much for them? Don't always have to beat them at their own game
