Richmond vs Coburg --- Sunday, April 13

[(•))(©™]

Ended up going for a couple of qtrs.

Thought Foley was very good

Was staggered at 3qtr though

One of the great things about VFL footy is being able to stand around the huddles and listen in.

Can't do it with the Tigers though .. We rope off our huddle, keeping fans a distance way. First time I've ever seen it and will admit I was disgusted by it. Not in the spirit of the comp and what it is supposed to be about.

Seems we are on a roll at the minute in the stupidity stakes

Interesting.

Certainly stuffn comical.

Fools

Thought they were already there.

Epic fail

[WilliamPowell]

I what I seen today
O'Hanlon in for Grigg dropped
Lennon/ Helbig in for Newman dropped
Foley in for Jackson injured
Big O in for Vickery/Hampson inj ?
King in for Edwards dropped

Ain't going to happen

They won't drop Grigg or Newman.

[Gigantor]

Was also at the game.
Thought Big O was absolutely dominate in the ruck...took some good grabs round the ground
my learned friend and I spent a large part of the game following Nathan around.what we saw was although that calf muscle has bulked up its still noticeably smaller than the other one.We also noticed that when he took off he would do it with a bit of a skip and we were wondering whether that was because one leg is weaker than the other and he trying to compensate for that.in general play he got a lot of the ball and did see him on at least 3 occasions burst out of a pack with the ball.
Thought mc donut was excellent.what I also like about this kid is that he takes a backward step to no one.
Thought Kingy was great..ran and tackeled hard,back to his best.
lennon did some nice things and is a very good kick.Dont know if I agree with the others who say he should play seniors this week.But I guess now might be a good time considering the dearth of talent across half forward.
saw a red head who we think was Banfield and thought meh about his game.
Mc bean presented well but didn't see a hell of a lot of the ball.....needs game time I think.
Elton took some good grabs.
many of the others I didn't recognise and as I didn have a record with me ,didn't know who they were.

Also thought the crowd was very good today

U need the
Myles's Deas and lennons to come in and embarrass the so called leaders by blitzing.

IMO Newman and co should be dropped for ever.

Nathan Foley was superb all day for the Tigers. He was instrumental around stoppages, ran hard with and without the ball, broke tackles and set a high standard with his delivery inside 50. He finished with 20 possessions and eight clearances.

Anthony Miles, another standout performer for Richmond also finished the game with eight clearances. The midfielder continued his strong run of form, racking up 26 disposals for the game.

Brett O’Hanlon and Ben Lennon had their best games of the year, collecting 24 and 17 disposals respectively.

Ben Darrou (22 disposals) was also impressive.

we nearly beat them by as much as Port Melbourne did.

[WA Tiger]

Foley will definitely come in, or should do, being dominant around the stoppages is what we need!!

Again I doubt anyone will come in from the ressies after only a 4 day break.
Maybe a sub position but I doubt for a full game.

Depends.  If Foley didn't get battered and bruised or injured he should be right to go.  Players in other elite sports can play several games a week. It's all about the bruising sustained and the freedom of movement that your body has after a game.  Many people focus on the number of days break and refuse to see what it is that doesn't allow a player to play.  I would say whoever is fresh after the Coburg game who played well should come in for Vickery, Grigg, Jackson(injured), Newman.
