"Richmond top 5 are obvious Deledio, Riewoldt, Cotchin, Martin and Newman

next 5 are tough Jackson,  White, Grigg, Foley and Edwards."

Wow. First sentence spot on. 2nd sentence, Edwards and White are not in the best 10 players at the club.

Popes Top 5:
Deledio
Newman
Riewoldt
Cotchin
Martin

Next Top 5:
Foley
Jackson
Grigg
Moore
Conca/McGuane/Morton

In all seriousness, who would be the next best player after those 9?

Tuck I suppose would be but he's in the 2's.

Can't be Edwards or White. They are closer to Coburg than Conca is?

Morton and McGuane have been dropped numerous times.

Houli? Vickery? Graham?

Conca is not a bad call.

This may seem ridiculous but after kicking 16 goals in his last 8 games I would have Jake King in the top 10.

Jake King has kicked more goals than Mitch Morton since Damien Hardwick became coach.Shame Mitch Shame.

Terry should stop commenting on Richmond games.

No wonder we are stuffed until the kids develop: Its a sad indictment on his legacy which includes smallish flankers like White and Edwards in our top 10.

You might be right, not a bad call.

If Jake King is a top 10 player then we may as well shut the joint down.

Sad when we have such a difficult time picking our best players  :(  Conca could be in our tope ten soon, hell he could be in our top 5, but I don't think you can after only 4 games. King is a good servicable player but, with all due respect to Kings attitiude and improved ability, if he is in our top ten then we are in more stife than I first imagined.

Perhaps Astbury has now become our tenth best player or even Vickery but otherwise, sadly I guess, White, Edwards, McGuane or Moore would be fighting it out for that tenth position  :whistle

Plough makes a good point about out total lack of depth (of which he is partly responsibly for) but how he includes Titch and Whitey in our top 10 is perplexing  ???.

My current top 10:
1. Lids
2. Cotch
3. Jack
4. Newy
5. Martin
daylight...
6. Moore
7. Grigg
8. Jackson
9. Foley
10. King .... an indictment he is but based on the first month of this season he belongs there.

It probably is also an indictment that a ruckman isn't in our top 10 even for a young side. Melbourne have Jamar, North have McIntosh and Essendon have Hille and Ryder.

You would hope in the next year or two the likes of Vickery, Conca, Griffiths, Astbury, top 12 pick 2011 draft, etc ... force their way into our top 10 and easily go past and replace those in our current lower 10. Until then we'll remain a bottom 4 side.
