jackstar, who do you think will play in Round 1 out of these players?
Tuck, Polo, White, Collins, Rance, Polak, Gourdis, Taylor, Roberts and Connors?
Tuck, Polo, Collins would be certain I would think.
Connors ?
Dont think they would play Taylor as he aint ready I wouldnt think.. He looks okay but he would get smashed
Would think Farmer and Martin would be the only 1st gamers . Like Farmer
If Browne plays okay next week, he could be a surprise as I think there is a plan to play a tall forward eg Vickery or Simmonds.
Therefore Polak wouldnt play.
Round 1 we will need to expose Carlton defence with height. , dont think Polak is the answer, rather play Vickery as a tall option with some rotation through Simmonds and Browne, although you cant play Browne down forward, he would need to be rotated through bench
Gus wouldnt play thats for certain, didnt touch the ball on Friday Night.
Rance NO
Gourdis, probably not as Thursfield ,Moore and McGaune would hold down back positions you would think
cool.
i have read some of your previous post jackstar, and although some people on here think, this and that of you.
i actually agree with A LOT of things you say.
you claim to of been at Richmond. (not for three years now?)
and i am not sure whether you are allowed to say what you did at Richmond, but i am interested to know.
i can only take what people say on here what they claim to know or have heard.
so, it is kind of good that some people can share information like that, but understand the "keep quiet rule".
Simmonds said on SEN, that he has been training as a Ruck and not a forward.
even though, he could still play in the forward line, Simmonds thinks he will not.
just interesting to read what you think.
personally i think we are fudged with Polak at full foward, because i believe he has no idea.
i guess that is why i am hoping/praying Griffiths gets fit quickly!
but i do agree with rotating Simmonds, Vickery as that tall full forward option.
i would rather throw Astbury at full foward then have Polak there!
i think Richmond have shot themselves in the foot saying they are going to promote Polak before Round 1!
