I'm a massive fan of axel and just really enjoy watching him go about is football. if he becomes half as good as kerr i think the tiger supporters can be happy.

similar size & build, and similar attack on the footy.....if he fine tunes his disposal who knows he could be as damaging as kerr.

Good luck to the kid.

Foley, Deledio, Connors.

There's our future on-ball brigade.
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

True. We also need to have around 10-12 quality Tigers rotating through the middle so to give them a rest otherwise they will burn out in the second half the year.

Foley is an absolute gem at extracting the ball, but for me he isn't doing enough with it. Needs to improve his decision making before he takes the next step IMHO.

Something positive - Foley

Glad to have eaten my words over time on Foley. I thought Axel would turn out to be another Ednie when he first was rookied but despite his size he's got into the gym and built himself up to take the hits in the guts and be up there as one of the top clearance winners. A lesson there to others on workrate and persistance. If Foley can keep this form up (he doesn't have much help in there) he will have a Jack Dyer medal around his neck as B&F at the end of the year. On ya Foles  :clapping.

ANother good game yesterday by Foley.

Is one attribute that we need more of in spades - getting the ball in tight contests.

He really needs to continue to work on his kicking though  :thumbsup

i thought polo was a positve also, for such a skinny kid he is tough and he put his body in many times and won a hard ball and ran hard all day.

tuck seemed to improve on previous weeks performances and joel and did also

polak was another positive too and watching petts work harder was a positive, lets hope he keeps it up.

king isnt polished but works hard , we need more like him and howat was a positve also, much more valuable than tiv.

sugar finally showing some leadership was a positive, even though he butchered a couple of kicks

I noticed on another Richmond forum they had a thread devoted to try and find the positives rather than dwell on all the negatives, which we are all well aware of.  Our situation at the moment is depressing enough, do we have to relive it all the time on forums?

the best thing the supporters could do is contribute to the club in a donation format via Bpay or something so they can assist in the paying out of contracts if thats what the club has decided. Id put in 50 or 60 bucks to help the club.
