Great to see Tambo, Meyer, Thirsty and Edwards back in the side :thumbsup
But what happened to Jack ??? thought he was a certainty to debut
-
Cleve is very stiff. One bad game and he's out.
Happy with most of the ins. More pace and skill with Tambo and Edwards. Danny needs to apply himself and keep presenting like he does at Coburg. Good to see Thursty back although he hasn't played much footy.
Jacko can only be in for a tagging role. Must be his last chance.
Jack is an emergency.

The Hughes ommission is a shocking decision. The coaching panel deserve what they get with decisions like that.

Apparently there's going to be a shower or two in Adelaide tomorrow. Perhaps a reason Jack didn't come in and the only defence for dropping Cleve. Agree Ramps it's a shocking decision if they have dropped Cleve for just one poor game. We've gone into the game with just one tall forward in Sarge. Richo can go forward when Patto is in the ruck.
------------
Forecast for Friday
Cloudy periods with a shower or two, chiefly during the morning. Light northeast
winds turning light to moderate northwest to southwest during the day.

Happy with the INS
Confused by the outs - there are some very lucky senior players still in that side :banghead

William Powell,
Who do you consider the lucky senior players given we haven't many?

One word
DISGRACEFUL. ::)

Why has Matty White been dropped?
If everyone tried as hard as him we would have won a few games.
I think he can be a decent player for us.
-
Hey Bull.
I am a Whitey fan too but I reckon he wasn't as hard at it last week. He will make a permanent spot soon but keeping him hungry is not a bad thing at present.
Cheers

they must think playing chf in the worst team in the competition is an easy job. the kid is stiff, hes kicked 3 goals a game- twice in the last 3. Anyway, what do i know Im just a supporter ;D

William Powell,

I think Chris Hyde is one very very lucky camper - tiger
And to a lesser extent Shane Tuck - I know he gets it but his turnovers are costly

Good to see Lids playing forward

yeha..cleve very stiff....reckon like someone said..weather may play a part.
also..i guess it prevents cleve from having a blinder this week....since jack is definitely gonna come in next week, we know that...i guess it saves the embarrassment later of having to drop cleve in case he kicks like 8 this week...hahahah....
but yeah..still reckon jack, cleve, sarge and richo can all play together in the 1 team..no probs

Tigers shuffle pack
18 May 2007 Herald-Sun
Michael Horan
RICHMOND continues to put solid VFL form ahead of reputations, bringing five players into the side to meet Adelaide at AAMI Stadium tonight.
The Tigers welcome defender Will Thursfield back to the top level after four games with Coburg since coming back from a knee reconstruction, while Richard Tambling returns after missing a week with a shoulder injury.
Daniel Jackson and Danny Meyer are recalled after being dropped to the VFL last week, while Shane Edwards was also promoted as the Tigers bid to find their first win of the season.
"We just can't keep ignoring the good form at Coburg," Tigers football operations manager Paul Armstrong said last night.
"They're all picked on form. It looks a lot, five changes, but if they're playing well at that level, they deserve to come up. And if you're not going well in the seniors, then you go back.
"We had six players last week who had 18 kicks between them. You can't ignore that."

Tigers' young hopes sacrificed in push for consistency
Len Johnson | May 18, 2007 | The Age
RICHMOND spun the wheel at selection for tonight's away match against Adelaide, making five unforced changes as it shuffled the younger brigade.
Daniel Jackson, Danny Meyer, Shane Edwards, Richard Tambling and Will Thursfield were included in the line-up to play the Tigers' second night game in Adelaide in six days; Andrew Krakouer, Matt White, Jarred Oakley-Nicholls, Cleve Hughes and Luke McGuane were axed. All are in the 19-21 age bracket, save for Krakouer, who is 24.
Richmond football operations manager Paul Armstrong said the changes reflected the fact that young players sometimes struggled for consistency. "Young boys, when they're not winning, their form fluctuates a bit," he said from Adelaide last night.

Richmond changes "based on form"
By Jason Phelan,
AAP
On the surface, making so many changes would seem to endanger team stability, but Wallace disagreed, vowing to keep searching for the right formula.
"We had a few young players who came over here last weekend who were not really up to a competitive state," Wallace said.
"I think we had something like six players with 18 kicks between them; our side back at Coburg are winning games and so we'll keep rotating guys until we can get guys who can really step up to the level."
The Tigers’ general manager of football operations, Paul Armstrong, echoed those sentiments and even felt the high turnover of players could prove to be a positive for the side as it heads straight back to Adelaide to take on the Crows on Friday.
“I don’t think it’ll count against us because we’ve had six days between two interstate trips and it may well help us to inject a bit of youth and speed into the side,” Armstrong said.
“There was no discussion about how many changes we’d made the week before, it was simply based on who was in form, and if you’re in form you’ll be given the opportunity and if you’re not you’ll have to go and find the form at the next level.
“When you get the opportunity you’ve got to perform and if you don’t and guys are putting on pressure beneath you then they’re going to get their opportunity.
“The players know exactly where it sits and they know they’ll be selected on merit which is a good thing.”
Armstrong was particularly pleased to welcome back Thursfield who will play his first game at AFL level in more than a year after he underwent a knee reconstruction early in 2006.
He also gave speedster Richard Tambling a clean bill of health following a shoulder injury suffered during the 157-point loss to Geelong.
“He was really keen to play last week and it was touch-and-go whether he’d come up or not, but we just erred on the side of
