Pettifer and Hughes GONE!

[mat073]

Cleve only played 16 games in 4 years at tigerland.

Take his day of glory against Port out of the equation and he kicked 17 goals from 15 games.

2005 was a shocking year for Richmind at the draft table.

Averaging a goal a game for a young kpp isn't that bad
The lack of games in 4 years was an issue, but there was never question on his talent, just his application

DUD. Good riddance!!

[Jackstar is back]

but there are still some on here who think we should give him another year under a new coach

As I said on another post - it staggers me that he was captain of the SA U18 team

NFI - any chance anyone thinks he is worth a pick - I cant belive the bitterness for no reason dumped on our players, how about some of you people wake up and realise that life is not that bad and where there is life there is hope - bet you have self worth problems - just remember it could be worse you could follow the....................................

Yep sadly Cleve has to go.
Petts' head was already on the choppong block in terms of age. He was fortunate to get another year in the first place.
There are others who should be in the gun too. Namely Schulz.
We have not fared too well in the forward line over the years other than Richo.
Hopefully Vickery Post Riewoldt can step up.

Cleve had to be cut as he was languishing in the VFL ressies and no longer was showing any heart. However early on he was poorly treated at the selection table by Plough IMO. You don't drop young key forwards when they kick 3 goals two weeks in a row and then have a poor game. You need to persist to build up confidence especially when we were meant to be rebuilding. Interesting to see now if Port gives him a second chance.

Petts should've been delisted last year.

Apart from the decision to keep Simmo I'm pleased with the cuts so far. A few more to go hopefully.

[big tone]

I'm pleased with the delisting/retirement decisions to date. I can see why Simmonds may be retained for one more season given the performances of our young rucks as the season drew to a close. Regardless he is lucky we have so many going otherwise he would have certainly joined the others exiting the club.

Very pleased that Pettifier and JON have left. Hughes may have been of some value but we could not wait forever - Terrible draft that one for us with JON, Hughes and Casserly 

I am crossing my fingers that McMahon and Raines are traded and possibly another player as well such as a Schulz.

Polak should go based on the same criteria as Cogs. Polak was never a world beater when fully fit and in form unlike Cogs and is unlikely to every reach his pre-injury form let alone the standard we need for this point on. Forgetting the situation, sympathy and any other emotional sentiment - he should go.

Putt is an interesting one. I think his size and age will save him.

Regardless, I agree with daniel, if he can continue the way he is and doesn't trade away our picks or trade for has-beens i will be extremely pleased.

My mail on Putt is he is gone too.

[WilliamPowell]

My mail on Putt is he is gone too.

You forgot this 

 

If that's true I wonder if they'd look at rookie-ing him

[tdy]

My mail on Putt is he is gone too.

Whats wrong with Putt? And I ask this without ever having seen him play or If I did I didn't notice him, so its a genuine question.

Lol - Is that where you play table tennis using chops as paddles

l would have given Hughes 1 year under a new coaching staff jack, but only if he was injury free would he get that.
Still think he will get a gig elsewhere & prove he can play football.
But that still wont tell us if he could have changed anything playing at Tigerland, l think he got destroyed by Wallace & Co

Pettifer is not at Ricmond any more

White was our PSD pick. Still, '05 was a shockin draft. Comming 9th was fantastic that season ... 

maybe we will rookie Casserly from WAFL
