WHAT'S THE GAME PLAN?

[Ramps]

Thought Tuck was okay in the 2nd half when on the ball.

Disagree Jack.  I thought Tuck today showed with crystal clear clarity why he has been on the outer - the number of times he got the ball and just banged it or handballed it forward without looking or thinking (especially in the 2nd half when he went on the ball) was frustrating to say the least.  Our side today was screaming out for the few older guys to stand up and they failed us again.  Simmonds and Tuck - absolutely no benefit from keeping them in the seniors now - not as protection to the kids, not as experience in the clinches, not as mentors, not as anything.  Thanks and bye.

I agree with this. I didnt want to name Tuck to be cut this week, but Id be retiring Simmonds and cutting Tuck and McMahon. Club needs to make a statement about the standards needed to be a Richmond player.

[Ramps]

Griffiths kicked 3 goals today for Coburg reserves
Will be interesting to see how much game time he played too as I doubt it would have been more than perhaps 3/4s

Can tell you the club have earmarked his debut in 4 weeks time

There you go Jacko if this season we get Astbury Griffiths Taylor and Martin then it wont have been a wasted year.

It will, why ?
As we aint competitive.
What  you do with the likes of Tambling, Riewoldt, Post, Collins, White, Rance, Edwards , Hislop

Tambling of to an interstate club at years end according to some
Riewoldt is overated by our supporters and Id trade him as well
Post is going nowhere except the Coburg seniors
Collins is also overated by our supporters, gets caught to often, cant see what others see in him anyway
White should be gone at seasons end
Rance is not the player we were hoping for nevertheless he will probably survive the cuts at years end
Edwards should be sent to an adelaide club in a trade
Hislop should never have been traded for
Thomson see Hislop
McMahon should be gone from Richmond asap
Tuck see McMcMahon
Simmonds should retire this week

I even put a few extras in for you Jacko.

Just watching the Saints Freo game on foxtel and talking about GAME PLAN.
Each time when  both teams go inside F50, they have at least 3 players who are isolated inside F 50.
we have no body, Riewoldt getting kicks high up on the wing

If he played inside F50 and stayed there, he would have 12 shots at goal a game

Lyon has been there 3 years, Harvey 3 years, Dean Bailey has been there 3 years.

Hardwick has had 4 games.

[jackstar is back again]

Very easy to have 3 players play inside F 50 when we have the ball, its aint ''Rocket science ""
Auskick stuff

[bojangles17]

ANYBODY ??

get the stuffen thing and kick it to a player in the same colours

I think Hardwick's game plan is starting to become less opaque. As I said before IMO Hardwick being the new vogue young coach he is is working on line by line. First up is defence which will be the main focus this year. Just from a tackling perspective there is a clear difference to Wallace's tenure. As far as offence it's fairly basic but it's far more direct. We still overused the handball at times which got us into trouble but 54 inside 50s today is significantly better than the 30 or so we were only reaching last year. I thought our short distance footpassing today over 15-20m hitting-up players was better also (longer passing still an issue).

[Hellenic Tiger]

Our pressure on the opposition has really stepped up in the last two weeks. Fiercer tackling and alot more of it rather than this coralling we saw under Wallace. What was the tackle count today? That tackle on Brown after the Riewoldt incident was just great. Need more of it and will result into referred pressure. One percenters are also high as well.

I am also seeing alot of shepherding too which was virtually non existent under Wallace.

I am seeing parts of a game plan which will lead to winning seasons in the future. Hardwick has us on the right track.

You obviously haven't been paying attention for the past 4 or 5 weeks Tucker.  I'm surprised Hardwick still has the job - he hasn't won a game, he has no gameplan, he is teaching them the wrong things.  Get a grip man, dump some chicken poo, join in the chorus..........................................Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick, Sack Hardwick.

It's because we played
 crap like Adelaide and Hawthorn.
They steppd up the opposition is nearly as poor as us.

I went today and have to say the game standard was like two blue bus loads fighting for a chocolate bar
