Pretty crappy when we have to put our best centre/forward in the backline with the rest of them to save us from utter humiliation isnt it.

FFS, even Jack went there at stages.

Actually he was sent back to save himself. He was having no influence whatsoever

The comment made by Richmond coach Damien Hardwick after the loss to Adelaide that his team may need to take half a step back to go two steps forward is confusing, says Terry Wallace.

After finishing fifth last season with 15 wins it would be reasonable to suggest that the Tigers would be pretty much set on who is doing what on the field regarding their game plan.

“I found it a very strange statement because Richmond won 15 games last year, so to be saying that you need to take a step back to go forward – if I was there I would have asked ‘please explain’,” said Wallace on SEN radio.

“Structurally, I see Richmond play their best football when they free flow… I’m not sure what’s going on with them at the moment.

“Well they won disposal by 42, uncontested possession by 39, won marks by 35, they had 15 to four marks inside 50 and got slaughtered.

“But it was turnovers, twelve goals to four against them for turnovers.”

Kevin Bartlett was also confused with Hardwick’s comments in the post-match press conference when he tried to downplay the six-goal defeat by mentioning the various statistics his team had won.

“The game has been ambushed a bit by stats because on the weekend I heard Dimma Hardwick tell us that the Tigers won every stat known to man but they got smashed on the scoreboard and never looked like winning,” explained Bartlett.

Ah where would Dum Dum be with out his precious stats......it's like we're being coached by one of the apologists from the Big Footy Richmond board .....do we get a trophy for winning the statistical premiership?

Why was it that he was having "no influence"? Because of the crap delivery into the forward line? Because we couldn't get any sort of movement out of the backline? Because we couldn't open up the forward line to give him some space because our movement was so slow or when we did move it the ball was turned over??

It sure as hell wasn't because Jack was no good.
