Richmond Team Of The Decade (2000-2009)

[torch]

thank you "smokey_58" for the list of players that qualify!

i was thinking about 2000-2010, but "decade" meaning 10 years and 2009 being the 10th year (starting from 2000) i made it untill 2009.

could of been "noughties", but yeahhhh.

remember please choose a Coach (Frawley or Wallace), Captain (Campbell, Johnson or Newman) and who your "Player Of The Decade" is!

i did notice that some players who i would consider (D.Kellaway) in the team do not qualify.

please edit your team when you feel like and enjoy the thread.

thank you to all who have posted a team, remembering you can change if you have second thoughts!

Makes you shudder doesn't it, although I suppose most teams could put a side on paper from their own lists that they would also laugh at.  Having said that, I think you have treated Ray Hall very harshly Tucker.  The guy was a very honest goer who made the most out of his abilities and was asked to play out of position or punch above his weight division for much of his career.  He played almost all of his last 2 seasons injured because the team had no-one else to fill the fullback role.  Was a shame he never played 1 more game to get his 100 - he deserved that at the very least.

Wayne I actually totally forgot about Marsh till you mentioned him. Should have put him in ahead of Patto lol. Now he has a hack of the decade medal to go with his 1998 premiership medallion. I wonder which one is worth more.

Ray Hall is a reason why we have been crap for so long Smokey. I agree with you he played above his weight and played injured in the latter part of his playing days. Furthermore he was so uncoordinated I shudder to think how he got through some games. Who could forget that match saving mark against the Hawks in 2004 when we got up by a point and only the umpires missing the fact he crossed the line and then ran over it to kick out cost Hawthorn two premiership points.

However Smokey he was very very ordinary and although it was not his fault he was selected week in week out injured or not, he crossed the white line and once you cross you are either good or not unfortunantely for us he wasn't. Courage and effort gets you so far when you have little or no ability. Just my take on him. Hence he made the team.

lol! i still think the "Richmond "Duds" Of The Decade" could still be worse!

Razor did play one good game in the SF win over Carlton. Nice long goal in the second quarter of that game too.

David Bourke is another one 'unlucky' not to make Tucky's side. Good at taking speccies but not much else. How about when he took a hanger against the Saints in the goalsquare in 2001 and then missed the goal from 10m out. Classic Bourkey lol.

Another to the second dud XVIII list is Jeremy Humm

ROTFLOL good one!!!

Though I thought Vardy was OK for a bit, but then maybe I sound really stupid saying that when you look at his stats.
