I think this was the last roll of the dice by Hardwick for this year.  He went with his best team of experienced players because this was a game we could reasonably have a chance of winning.  The spray he gave the players isn't something he wouldn't have done unless he had nothing to lose.

Maric needs to be eased in to get match fitness.  If he is still injured its silly to play him, just sit him out.  The season is gone, everyone knows that now.

Jackson needs to be rested.  The media asked Jackson about his injury as he walked into Punt road this morning and about Hardwicks spray.  He said no comment about the spray and something or other about his injury.
lol what spray ?
Dimma got excited watching Grigg and Chaplin and Hampson play in the same team at the same time again?
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Hardwick plays people who are not fit

Cause the club cares not about the long term wlefare of the personal or club

But merely want to win to make final so short term goals are achieved

Add Morris, Cotchin and Lids. Cotchin looks like a D-grade hack from the local league.  :banghead :banghead

I must say Hampson was clearly sore, no second efforts and looked lame.
What I want to know is this, why didn't he or Jackson pull out for the benefit of the team? Selfishness?

Good question
It's because hard wick has them chanting the wrong mantra.

No there's nothing wrong with hamspud.
Except that he has no second efforts. He looks lame & sore because he's a useless footballer and its mindboggling he's playing AFL.

What's even worse is that we traded a second rounded for this potato.

Hamspud's so useless people just assume he's injured.

Who cares! 
Facts are he's a useless player.
Has played probably 1 or 2 "good games" per season in his career to date and those were normally against us.
It's beyond belief he's an AFL player.
Richmond aren't like Sydney, we will never be able to make ordinary players look good. Those types just end up on the big poo heap of ex-tiger excrement that has contributed to the stench at punt road.

The club that keeps giving.
