I'm pretty sure that's the wrong team.
The one I've seen has Grimes in it and also doesn't name Griffiths twice.
Unfortunately both Lloyd and Morris are in - it's like some bizarre love triangle with dimma

It looks as though Astbury has moved ahead of Chaplin in the pecking order. Good to see. Batch is unlucky if fit, he had earned his spot.
There are too many workhorses that can't kick in the side namely Lambert, Morris and Townsend but there isn't that much to choose from.
Lennon, I just don't get it.

Anyone that's had glandular fever will tell you it takes a full year to properly recover and 3 months before the symptoms are passed. Could be another month or so before he's in the team.

That is true for severe cases. If you have spleen involvement it usually means your out for a while. There are milder forms which I believe is what Ben had. Having said that there is the possibility of a relapse too.
That is why I want to find out what's going on!
Title: Re: official Tiger team -v- Carlton Rd 1
Post by: Simonator on March 23, 2016, 08:26:32 PM
Glandular can be as subtle as a cold. I had it and was fine after 2 weeks. Ben isn't in the same due to form, doubt it's to do with the glandular. As someone else said, too many work horses that can't kick. It's like we're trying to lose

It's actually a very inexperienced team.

Rioli, menadue, c Ellis, lloyd, astbury, mcintosh, lambert, townsend.

Some more really strange decisions at the selection table.

Although it's great to see Rioli debut, not sure it's the right call. Apart from about 30 minutes in NAB 3, he looked a fair bit of the pace of AFL footy

Why Morris? His NAB form was ordinary

Understand Lambert getting the gig as the defensive small forward but just think Lennon offers more variety. Can play as a lead up mobilr forward, a Gunston type role.

From what I hear there are no after effects from the glandular fever with Lennon, his case was extremely mild so his non selection is stange

Doesn't make sense to me that we are playing Lloyd and Lambert, too similar; read slow across the park

The general consensus seems to be that a number of other players should be in this round 1 side. In addition to our injury situation it does show that we are developing more competition for spots which can only be a good thing moving forward.

Hardwick should have little excuse to keep under performers in the side. Alternatively should some of the younger brigade perform above expectations then with players still to return after injury we should become a much stronger unit overall.

if youd taken any notice of the great sage, then youd know that it is years in the system that brings improvement. all they need to do is sit in the medical room and the improvement will come as time goes on.

IMO Astbury is getting a go ahead of Chaplin because Carlton's forward line is young, and TBH I'm happy to see Chaplin losing/fighting for his spot. Honestly I'd be happy for Elton to get a crack ahead of Chaplin too - bloke needs a shot and Chaplin is in his last year of 'serviceable' footy I reckon.

Also nice to see Hunt get pushed out. Depth player at best.

Great to see C Ellis and Menadue playing.

Lids, Yarran, Lennon and Maric (our ruck sitch is so F'd) are missing from our best lineup. You would think Morris, Lloyd, Lambert (stiff) and Hampson will make way for those 4 eventually...

Has earned his spot

So are you suggesting that it's training form rather than how they've actually performed in NAB games is and should be the main criteria for selection for round 1  :huh

LLoyd & Morris (throw in Astbury too) may have been training brilliantly but their NAB form wasn't great

Can tell Lloyd is probably 33% fitter than Lennon as this stage
No surprise to see Lloyd get a game and being rewarded for a hard pre season

The general consensus seems to be that a number of other players should be in this round 1 side. In addition to our injury situation it does show that we are developing more competition for spots which can only be a good thing moving forward.

Hardwick should have little excuse to keep under performers in the side. Alternatively should some of the younger brigade perform above expectations then with players still to return after injury we should become a much stronger unit overall.

The only fit players that have been nominated thus far are

Lennon.  Who is stiff (again)

And bachelor. Which is a terrible suggestion
Exactly I am scratching my head wondering who else they think should be in this side

Broad?

Is that the reason he wasn't selected?

Morris and Lloyd. Making same mistakes year in year out.

Kidding ourselves. Hate negative people but bloody hell. Lennon surely plays.

Don't mind Rioli, yeah he's off the pace but I don't mind blooding untried talent. If Morris and Lloyd are genuinely in best 22 we have again failed in the off season.

Can tell Lloyd is probably 33% fitter than Lennon as this stage

Heard he is 33.54% fitter.

Well originally the RFC website had him named twice, back pocket and wing

Not sure his fitness levels are high enough for either position

11:15am: LIDS TO SLIDE IN LATE?

Some, uh, early late mail today, with Richmond star Brett Deledio - not named among the Tigers 25 - seen going through what looked to be a fitness test at Punt Rd this morning in front of club fitness staff.

While it seems very unlikely the midfield gun would get the shock call-up tonight, it's an interesting time for a test with Richmond still eight days away from their round two fixture.
