what ever rookies we cut and add.

[Coach]

Chaplin - no thanks. If he came here he'd be taking Moore's spot. He definitely wouldn't be playing full back. He plays either half back stuff or as the floater. Geez we need a big defender who can match up on the likes of Petrie, JBrown and N.Riewoldt etc. And don't you blokes tell me it will be Astbury

Clokey

Merrett.

[Francois Jackson]

Enough of the BS, Claw is spot on ive changed my mind on Cloke

Cloke= no picks
Caddy-First round and Gorringe for 10  and Mcguane or Jackson/Edwards

cant argue with Moloney either. At least he knows how do something that Tabouli and Grigg dont

[MADTIGER2010]

Chaplain is terrible. He'll lose us games with sprayed short passes every week. I don't want Cloke either. He's done nothing this season. Has only played 1 really good season and he'll cost us a heap. What will take us forward is our young talls gaining experience and becoming bigger and stronger. If we can clean out Miller, Mcguane, Moore, Graham from the list this will allow Post, Griffiths, Grimes, Astbury, Elton to get plenty of games next year. This can only make our tall players and us better as a team. A Proper function forward line will make all the difference

[Coach]

Post is 24 next year, MT. Stop treating him like a kid

[MADTIGER2010]

He's 22 all this season. Turns 23 in December this year

Merrett.

well we disagree on chaplin but hey id love to get merrett. it wasnt so much on about which players we get but the positions we need to add to and the need for 4 or 5 experienced types if we want to play finals.

by the way chaplin is no midget hes 195 and 100 kg he and alipate i have always had a bit of time for. reckon chaplin is more than capable of holding down f/b. at fb id have him over rance any day of the week.

[Coach]

Chappy is billed at that weight but he's slimmed down and gotten fitter. Port supporters want him gone after his efforts on the weekend. Not sure I want another soft left footer from another club No doubt he can play but he's not the guy I want to be pinning my hopes on
Alipate would be good. He's fat but a good defender.

Huh? So he's 24 next year then in December? Pretty sure Coach said 24 next year.

[wayne]

Looks a good side claw, I hope the Tigers are really aggressive with their delisting/trading of underperformers.

Rendell would be a good pick-up as well.

Well stuff me, that changes everything

He's still a young player. He turned 19 when we drafted him. The club should be giving him plenty of games. They should have done it months ago. Instead of leaving it to the later stages of every season

moloney mid

I like the look of that, having made one change.

That forward line would see JR8 with the oppositions 2nd best defender, with their 3rd struggling on either Maric or TV while they rest forward.

[JVT]

Also add, I have really liked Edwards since moving to a small forward role in the Dreamtime Game. Seems to be a very dangerous player, is evasive and can create chances out of nothing. Has played his best footy for mine in this role.

He got drafted as an overage player. Think that says something. Agree he should have played more in his time at Richmond but it's time to produce now. He's in the side and needs to perform to stay there (and on the list)
